Sorry for the 650 newbie questions. I'm having a blast with my 650 and
want to understand it as well as possible. I know that the CC messages
can be mapped to the AUX outputs for controlling other modules in your
synthesizer. I was wondering if the 650 can respond to CC messages to
modify some of its internal settings. It would be useful to have
Portamento Time on a MIDI controller, rather than have to step through a
menu on the 650 to change it. Likewise, being able to turn an
Arpeggiator on and off from a MIDI controller button on a keyboard would
be nice. You get the idea. Having some 650 settings mapped to buttons,
sliders and pots on a MIDI controller would be really handy. I assume
this is at least possible, if not currently available in the 650
firmware. It would be fine, too, if changes made by CC were not stored
over power down. When editing these settings, as you cycle through they
become active immediately without having to be stored as defaults. So
they might be able to be set by CC messages too.
Thanks,
Richard Brewster
