Controllers
This is where you set up which MIDI Continuous Controllers Emulator X will receive.
Match these controls to the MIDI continuous controller numbers that your keyboard
or sequencer transmits. What the controllers actually do is programmable in each
preset. See Modulation Cords on page 142.
As you can see, MIDI Continuous Controller numbers are assigned to letters (A-P) or
labels (Pitch, Mod, Pressure, Pedal, etc.) in this screen. When programming a preset,
these letter or name labels can be assigned to control various parameters such as filter
frequency or attack time.
The name labels such as pitch and mod wheels are so commonly used that they have
their own assigned name, but these can also be freely assigned in any way you choose.
If you’re just getting started, it’s probably best to use the default settings. Press the “Use
Default” button to restore the default settings shown above.
