How Do I Filter Control Change Messages?
The XP-60 and XP-80 retain Control Change (CC), Aftertouch, and Pitch Bend values for each Part of a Performance. If a CC (such as volume) is sent to any Part, that Part has now been altered for the entire Performance Mode. When a new Performance is selected (via MIDI or front panel), it will reflect the previous CC values for each Part. Let’s say you use a foot pedal to turn down a Piano Patch on Part 1 of a Performance. Now when you switch to another Performance, whatever sound is on Part one will also be turned down. One way to avoid this is to set the Performance to ignore these MIDI messages. Use the following procedure:
1. Press PERFORMANCE.
2. Use the RIGHT and LEFT CURSOR buttons to select the Part you wish to edit.
3. Press F4 [MIDI].
4. CURSOR to Rx Volume Switch and Rx Hold-1 Switch and use the VALUE dial to select “OFF.”
