X32 MIDI Implementation (06 May 2014)

MIDI RX > SCENES

Whenever program change messages in the range 1-100 are received on MIDI CH01, thecorresponding

scene of the X32 internal show memory will be loaded.

This requires the following preconditions:

• Setup / remote

–MIDI In/Out check marks must be set according to the connection on which MIDI input will be

accepted (via physical MIDI connectors on X32 or S16, or via XUF Card)

–MIDI In/Out check mark must be set for “Enable MIDI Scene Recall”

• Setup / global

–when tick mark “Con rm Pop-Ups” / “Scene Load” is active, also MIDI scene recalls will only

become active after manual con rmation

–if you prefer activating scenes via MIDI program changes immediately, un-check the

“Con rmPop-Ups” / “Scene Load” tick mark

• Scenes View / home

–valid scenes must be stored in the internal X32 show  le. It is not possible to recall

emptyscenes.

–the scope of changes applied by a MIDI scene recall depends on the Scene Safes,

ParameterSafes and Channel Safes settings, same as with recalling the scene locally.

MIDI TX > SCENES

• Every scene can be assigned one speci c MIDI command/event. Each time the scene is loaded

the MIDI command will be sent out once. Possible choices for MIDI commands/events to be found

on Scenes View/MIDI page:

–O > no message will be sent upon scene load

–Program Change > select the MIDI Channel and the Program Number (using knobs 4/5 at the

main display)

–Control Change > select the MIDI Channel, Controller number and value(using knobs 4-6 at

the main display)

–Note > select the MIDI Channel, Note number and velocity(using knobs 4-6 at the

maindisplay)

• will send out a Note On command directly followed by the same Note O command

MIDI RX > ASSIGN

Whenever assignable controls are set up for transmitting MIDI commands, reception of that same

command (status or continuous) will be re ected on the respective assignable control element

(buttonlight, encoder LED collar).

MIDITX > ASSIGN

We restricted the user assignable MIDI commands to some generic elements, in order to keep things

simpleenough:

• Encoders 1-4 > can be assigned to sending control changes, program changes or notes

–parameters are currently ‘Channel’ and ‘Value’

–for CC and Note commands ‘Value’ = controller number/note number, and the encoder

rotation determines the controller value/note-on velocity

–for Program Changes only the channel is speci ed, and the encoder rotation determines the

programnumber

• Buttons 5-12 > can be operated in two modes, ‘MIDI Push’ (non-latching) for momentary

commands, or ‘MIDI Toggle’ (latching) for static commands

MIDI Push:

• can be assigned to sending control changes, program changes or notes

• parameters are currently ‘Channel’ and ‘Value’

• for CC and Note commands ‘Value’ 0…127 = controller number/note number, and the button

momentarily toggles the controller value/note-on velocity

• to 127 (depressed/released]

• for Program Changes ‘Value’ 0…127 = program/preset number, that will be sent upon

pressingthe button

MIDI Toggle:

• can be assigned to sending control changes or notes

• parameters are currently ‘Channel’ and ‘Value’

• for CC and Note commands ‘Value’ 0…127 = controller number/note number, and the button

toggles the controller value/note-on velocity

• between value/velocity 127 and 0 with every operation

Please Note:

• The ASSIGN section also re ects/displays reception of the same MIDI commands that are selected

for transmission

• The MIDI commands assigned to the ASSIGN controls can be transferred to and from stage via

AES50 using the S16 stage box MIDI I/O

MIDIRX/TX > REMOTE

Enables a speci c form of bi-directional MIDI communication for remote controlling a

computer DAW application using control elements of the X32 console.REMOTEcan be used in

3modes,MackieControl,HUIand rawMIDI CC (raw)controllers (see Setup/remote)

• MIDI CC (raw) selected and Remote is enabled+active, thegroup section controls will transmit/

receive the following messages:

GROUP Faders 1 CC0-7 0-127

HUI selected and Remote is enabled+active, then the group fader section and buttons will emulate the

HUI control surface protocol, i.e. for ProTools.

• SELECT/SOLO 1-8 buttons will select or solo the corresponding track in the DAW, in banks of

8tracks

• Sends On Fader = enables touch-writing a fader automation on selected track, trackautomation

mode in DAW must be ‘touch’, (latching)

• use the layer buttons to determine the function assigned to the MUTE 1-8 buttons, the LED

displays indicate that function

–Group DCA 1-8 = allows to move the bank selection of tracks in a DAW, (push non-latching)

–BUS 1-8 = allows to set DAW tracks to ‘Record Ready’, (push non-latching)

–BUS 9-16 = enables using the MUTE buttons for track mute in the DAW, (latching)

–MTX 1-6 = enables using the MUTE buttons for transport controls in the DAW, (latching)

MACKIE CTRL selected and Remote is enabled+active, then the group fader section and buttons will

emulate the Mackie Control Universal protocol

• SELECT/SOLO 1-8 buttons will select or solo the corresponding track in the DAW, in banks of

8tracks

• Sends On Fader = enables touch-writing a fader automation on selected track, track automation

mode in DAW must be ‘touch’ or ‘latch’, (latching)

• use the layer buttons to determine the function assigned to the MUTE 1-8 buttons, the LED

displays indicate that function

–Group DCA 1-8 = allows to move the bank selection of tracks in a DAW, (push non-latching)

–BUS 1-8 = allows to set DAW tracks to ‘Record Ready’, (push non-latching)

–BUS 9-16 = enables using the MUTE buttons for track mute in the DAW, (latching)

–MTX 1-6 = enables using the MUTE buttons for transport controls in the DAW, (latching)
