Utilities
The Mute Controller has a number of parameters that the user can change.A Utility Mode
is provided for accessing these settings.The following is a current list of parameters, along
with their default and other possible settings.The default setting is shown UNDERLINED.An
explanation follows on how to review or change the different settings.
Display Meaning Settings
uP Micro Processor ON or OFF
Determines whether the Mute System is ON or OFF.When OFF, the entire Mute Scene sys-
tem is disabled, only the Local mutes will operate.This setting can be used if "Traditional"
console operation is desired (i.e. No programmed scenes are wanted).
M Ch MIDI Channel 01 to 16
Sets the MIDI channel that the Controller uses to communicate to the MIDI world.The Mute
Controller can send and receive MIDI Program changes, MIDI dumps etc. It does so on this
channel.
Lock Edit Lock OFF or ON
If set to ON, prevents any changes to be made to any Mute Scene. If Edit Preview is pressed
when LOCK is ON, "Lock" is displayed and the system will not enter Edit Mode.
Dmp? MIDI Dump
When activated, the contents of all the Mute Scenes are transmitted via the MIDI Out jack
using SysEx protocol.A librarian or archiving MIDI program can be used to store the Mute
settings externally. Note: Loading of external data via SysEx command is always active.
Base MIDI Base 01 or 00
There are 128 possible MIDI numbers. Do you want to start counting at 01 and count up to
128, or start at 00 and count up to 127 ? Different MIDI devices do it either way.You get to
choose.
Ext External Ctrl OFF or ON
Normally, the Mute System uses its internal Mute Scenes to control the Console mutes.
Alternately, MIDI Note Commands can be used to control the channel mutes directly.When
Ext is ON, the Display(B) will show "Ext", and the normal Mute Scenes will be disabled.The
Controller will now respond only to externally received Note On/Off commands (via MIDI
In jack).
Pgm Program Chg ON or OFF
The Mute Controller normally sends a MIDI Program change command every time the
RECALL (I) button is pressed,corresponding to the Patch number shown in the Display.Also,
if a MIDI Pgm Chg is received,the Controller will respond by recalling the Patch Mute match-
ing that Pgm Chng. Setting Pgm to OFF disables the sending and receiving of MIDI Pgm
Changes.
