CC Send On Recall
Every Xboard patch stores an initial value (position) setting for each of the 16
Controller Knobs, the Pitch Wheel, the Mod Wheel and the Footpedal. The “CC
Send On Recall” setting enables or disables transmission of these stored values
when a patch is recalled.
Select on to transmit the values stored in a patch when that patch is recalled. In
conjunction with the “Save CC Values In Patch” feature, which lets you control the
settings which get stored in a patch (see below), this allows you to simultaneously
preset many individual parameters of your MIDI instruments exactly as desired, by
simply recalling that patch. (If “PGM Send On Recall” is also switched on in the
same patch, the program changes are sent first, followed by the controller
messages, so that the controller messages will affect the newly-loaded programs.)
When set to oFF, the continuous controller settings will not be transmitted when
the patch is selected.
Note: This feature has a tricky aspect which you need to be aware of in order
to use it as intended:
The “CC Send On Recall” setting is stored in and recalled from patches. It is
not a global setting and can be different from one patch to the next. Since it is
applied immediately following recall of a patch, this setting must be stored in
a patch in order to have any effect upon what happens when the patch is
recalled, and will apply only to that patch. It follows that the patch must be
stored again anytime this setting gets changed – otherwise, the changed
setting will be lost.
Save CC Value in Patch
This setting is useful in conjunction with the “CC Send On Recall” feature (see
above). When this parameter is set to On, the current initial value (position)
settings of the 16 Controller Knobs, the Pitch Wheel. the Mod Wheel and the
Footpedal will be stored in a patch when the patch is stored. If this setting is oFF,
the existing controller initial value settings in the patch are retained, even if you
have adjusted one or more controls in the meantime. Therefore, turning this
option oFF effectively “locks” the controller initial value settings into the patch.
Note that this setting is applied when you store a patch, not just after the patch is
recalled, and is thus effective immediately upon being changed – unlike some
settings discussed above, it doesn't need to first be stored in a patch in order to
become effective.
Note: You cannot save values for controllers that are set to NRPN mode.
