The Misc(ellaneous) parameters affect the entire Vintage Clav instrument, rather than an individual model.
MIDI controller assignments allow you to control Vintage Clav with an external MIDI controller.
Voices pop-up menu: Choose the maximum number of voices that can be played simultaneously. Lowering the value of this parameter limits the polyphony and processing requirements of Vintage Clav. There are two monophonic settings: mono and legato. Each setting provides a single voice when playing Vintage Clav.
Mono: Vintage Clav voice is triggered each time a key is pressed.
Legato: Vintage Clav sound-shaping processes are not triggered if the notes are played legato—only the pitch changes. If the notes are played staccato, a Vintage Clav voice with all sound-shaping processes is triggered.
Velocity Curve pop-up menu: Choose one of nine preset velocity curves to suit your playing style or the selected model. The nine curves available are: fx25%, fx50%, fx75%, fx100%, convx1, convx2, linear (the default), concv1, and concv2.
Fixed (fx) curves: These are linear curves with a fixed dynamic range of 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100%.
Convex (convx) curves: These curves are more dynamically responsive in the center octaves of the keyboard range.
Concave (concv) curves: These curves are less dynamically responsive in the center octaves of the keyboard range.
Damper Control pop-up menu: Choose the MIDI controller (or MIDI velocity or aftertouch) you want to use to control the Damper parameter. Off disables MIDI control.
Wah Control pop-up menu: Choose the MIDI controller you want to use as a manual Wah effect control. MIDI foot controllers such as Expression pedals are commonly used for this type of task, but any controller can be assigned. You can also use MIDI velocity or aftertouch messages to control the Wah effect. Off disables MIDI control. Choose the Learn menu item to automatically assign the parameter to the first appropriate incoming MIDI data message, then move the controller on your MIDI keyboard. Learn mode has a 20 second time-out feature: If Vintage Clav does not receive a MIDI message within 20 seconds, the parameter reverts to its original MIDI controller assignment.
Note: You can simultaneously control the Wah effect with both the integrated envelope follower function (“auto-wah”—see Vintage Clav Wah effect) and a manual controller. In this situation, the controller events of the envelope follower and manual controls are mixed.
Wah Pedal Position slider (Controls view): Choose View > Controls to access the Wah Pedal Position slider. The value of this parameter represents the current pedal position, ensuring that it is saved with the setting. Choose the Learn menu item to automatically assign the parameter to the first appropriate incoming MIDI data message, then move the controller on your MIDI keyboard. Learn mode has a 20 second time-out feature: If Vintage Clav does not receive a MIDI message within 20 seconds, the parameter reverts to its original MIDI controller assignment.
