Captor X features a MIDI input for full MIDI control of the unit’s editable parameters via compatible MIDI controllers and switchers. In order to configure Captor X’s MIDI capability, please follow our guidelines below.
- First, connect the MIDI OUT of your controller/switcher to Captor X using the supplied mini jack converter cable.
- Change presets via your MIDI controller through Program Change (PC) messages. MIDI Program Changes range from 0 to 127. Specific hardware and software devices count the first program change as PC0 (thus a range of 0-127) and the others as PC1 (thus a range of 1-128). The first message (PC0 or PC1) will recall preset #1 on Captor X.
- Captor X’s editable parameters can be controlled via Control Change MIDI messages. To view the full MIDI mapping chart for Captor X, please review the following link.
- By default, Captor X is set to OMNI, listening to all available MIDI channels. It is possible to set a dedicated reception channel between 1 to 16.
- The provided MIDI to mini jack cable is a Format A cable; the same specification as that used by BOSS® and Korg® cables - please be advised that brands including Novation® and Arturia® use Format B cables.
- Controllers compatible with conventional MIDI norms and protocols are all compatible with Captor X in accordance with sending PC and CC messages.
