You can then create a Patch which will allow the performer to execute the modifier and setup the synth sounds for “Song 2”Īny change you make in Clockworks will update your MTPAV in real-time. Instead of creating another BaseSetup You can simply create another Modifier with a Cannon that sets up all of the sounds for “Song 2”. Now the bands next song might use the same synths except with different programs or sounds. The Modifier “Song 1” initiates a Cannon which sends program changes to all four synths for this song. The Modifier “Leads/Pads” mutes controller information on outputs #3 - 4. It also initiates the Modifier “Leads/Pads” and “Song 1”. It is triggered by a program change of 1. They are recalled via program changes from a defined source or controller.Įxample: You have created a Patch called “Execute Song 1”. In the Patch List Window you can select the Patch, the Source which will transmit the Patch, and what BaseSetups and Modifiers that will be initiated when the patch change is received by the MTPAV.Ī Patch is any combination of a single BaseSetup and up to 4 modifiers. Patch: You may use a program change to trigger a Patch and tell the MTPAV to change BaseSetups, as well as initiate up to four Modifiers. This Cannon will be sent when you initiate the Modifier “Song 1”. Example: You have created a Cannon titled “Patches -1”which calls specific program changes for all four Synths. It can contain any combination of complex events such as multiple program changes, sending System Exclusive, Continuous Controller data, etc. A MIDI Cannon may include MIDI messages such as a Patch Change, Pitch Bend, Continuos Controller information, System Exclusive, etc.Ī Cannon is like a modifier on steroids. A MIDI cannon can be sent when a Modifier is initiated. MIDI Cannon: A MIDI Cannon consists of a groups of events being sent at one time. This Modifier sends a Cannon which is explained below. You have also created a Modifier titled “Song 1”. On some songs there are pads and if the performer uses Modulation you don't want it to affect the pad sounds. This modifier mutes Controller information on outputs #3 - 4. Modifiers are created in Clockworks and you can have as many modifiers as you’d like as long as there is enough memory available in the hardware’s RAM.Įxample: You have created a Modifier titled “Leads/Pads”. The idea is that if you wanted to make a simple change it wouldn’t be RAM efficient to rewrite the whole BaseSetup. A Modifier is a change or modification to your current BaseSetup, which can be very large or small. ![]() Think of a modifier as a parameter on a synth, like a patch change or effect type change. When creating Modifiers, Clockworks will always display how much memory is available in the MTPAV’s RAM. A Modifier may include any Sync Settings, Cable Routings, Event Muting, Channel mapping, Knobs and Pedals, or MIDI Cannon. A Modifier is in no way related to any particular BaseSetup, but it will override it. Modifier: At anytime you may initiate a modifier which will modify any BaseSetup that is currently, active according to the modifier. You can even specify channels if you wish. These are his favorite Synths that he likes to use on most songs throughout a set. It takes input #3 and Routes it to Outputs #1 - 4. You are simply transferring all of your settings to a BaseSetup in Hardware that can be chosen from the front of the MTP AV.Įxample: You have created a BaseSetup called “Main” for your keyboardist on tour. ![]() Think of a BaseSetup as a snapshot of all the windows in Clockworks. BaseSetups can include any Sync settings, Cable Routings, Event Muting, Channel mapping, or Knobs and Pedals.Ī BaseSetup is like a Multi setup on a synth. To understand how Clockworks interfaces with the MTP AV, let’s define and explain the terms behind the MTP AV’s powerful features:īaseSetups: You may have 8 BaseSetups stored in the MTP AV at anytime and they are accessed one at a time. These features are geared more towards live performance situations such as sending out patch changes and input/output MIDI routing to multiple devices from a main controller keyboard.Ĭlockworks is a great tool for programing the MTP AV to be used as a stand alone patchbay, router and synchronizer. These features are not necessary for most sequencing situations. This FAQ is intended to help understand some of the most powerful and advanced features of your MTP AV when using it as a MIDI patchbay in a live situation.
