Question:
On the SP6, what MIDI Continuous Controllers (CC) are used to remotely control the KB3 parameters?
Answer:
Via the SP6 MIDI IN (or USB-MIDI*) you can access the full compliment of KB3 program parameters to enhance your real-time performance as well as sonic tweaking.
(*Note: the SP6 Type B USB port does not provide bus power.)
| TIP: tweaked programs can be saved to user memory simply by pressing Save, selecting a desired User Bank location, then pressing Save again. |
The table below details the 23 accessible KB3 parameters and any associated, default MIDI CC numbers. Note all parameter CC’s are customizable per program. Those marked with a “+” have no factory default CC but can be manually assigned, per program, as needed.
