Tab. 3.1: The effect algorithms of the ULTRACOUSTIC
A very special feature of your ULTRACOUSTIC is its built-in
multi-effects processor that creates a variety of first-class,
studio-compatible algorithms. This effects module provides a
total of 99 preset, organized in 23 different groups of effects.
Each group comprises a number of presets with varying
parameter settings and covering a broad spectrum of effects
and effects combinations.
The range of effects provided consists of single, parallel and
dual effects. The single and parallel effects provide an effect or
effects combination for both channels. The dual effects allow
you to give each channel its own effect.
Use the four PRESET buttons to store one effects program
each, including the mix ratio adjusted with the EFFECT controls
(original vs. effect signal for both channels). To store a preset
selected with the PROGRAM control, simply press one of the
four PRESET buttons for about 2 seconds, until its associated
LED lights up.
To recall the four presets stored, press one of the PRESET
buttons or one of the four buttons on the enclosed footswitch.
3.1 MIDI control
With its built-in MIDI interface you can control the
ULTRACOUSTIC via MIDI, for example, to select effects from a
MIDI sequencer (studio), or from a master keyboard or MIDI
footcontroller (live).
Connect the MIDI IN jack of your ULTRACOUSTIC to the MIDI
OUT jack of a MIDI footcontroller. Now, enable the MIDI functions
on your ULTRACOUSTIC by pressing the PRESET buttons #3
and #4 for about two seconds: the two control LED’s of PRESET
buttons #3 and #4 start flashing, the right decimal point in the
display lights up. Select a MIDI channel with the PROGRAM control
(1 through 16, “on” = Omni, “OF” = inactive) and quit the menu by
pressing either one of the PRESET buttons. “Omni” mode means
that your ULTRACOUSTIC receives and processes MIDI
information on all MIDI channels. Of course, you should select
the same channel both on your MIDI footcontroller and ACX1000
(see MIDI footcontroller user’s manual).
You can select presets via MIDI using program change
commands. When you send program change command #127,
the effects module of your ACX1000 will be bypassed, i.e. you
will hear no effect. As is usual with MIDI program change
commands, program change #0 corresponds to program #1,
and program change #1 to program #2, etc. (see table 4.1 in the
appendix). The program change numbers 99 through 102 select
the preset stored for the four PRESET buttons. After changeover
the preset is activated immediately, i.e. it will not be affected by
previously adjusted bypass settings.
