E STRING PARAMETERS

The table below lists the parameters on the E string as they appear when the bass is set on Play Style

1. This layout holds for Play Style 2, 3, and 4. But the ST1 prefix will change accordingly to reflect the Play Style. So if you are on Play Style 2, for example, the prefix will be ST2.

E21 > INACTIVE - - -

NOTE: When the bass is set to Play Style 1 the display includes the prefix ST1> before the name of the parameter. This prefix changes according to the Play Style that is set in the performance preset you are on. If the user changes the Play Style to Play Style 3 then the prefix would change to ST3> in order to remind the user that they are using or editing Play Style 3.

NOTE: Frets E15 - E20 are global parameters and are preceded by the GLB> prefix. Global parameters are common to all performance presets and Play Styles.

The table below lists the parameters on the E string as they appear when the bass is set Radio Pick Play Style.

E TRIGGER (E1)

E STRING TRIGGER GAIN: +0dB to +40dB

Sets the individual gain of the piezo saddle pickup on the E string that is fed into the trigger algorithm. The higher the gain the more likely a trigger will occur.

A TRIGGER (E2)

A STRING TRIGGER GAIN: +0dB to +40dB

Sets the individual gain of the piezo saddle pickup on the A string that is fed into the trigger algorithm. The higher the gain the more likely a trigger will occur.

D TRIGGER (E3)

D STRING TRIGGER GAIN: +0dB to +40dB

Sets the individual gain of the piezo saddle pickup on the D string that is fed into the trigger algorithm. The higher the gain the more likely a trigger will occur.

PRO-4 USER MANUAL

G TRIGGER (E4)

G STRING TRIGGER GAIN: +0dB to +40dB

Sets the individual gain of the piezo saddle pickup on the G string that is fed into the trigger algorithm. The higher the gain the more likely a trigger will occur.

INACTIVE (E5) / TRIGGER (E5)

RADIO PICK TRIGGER GAIN: +0dB to +40dB

When Play Style is set to 'RadioPick' fret E5 controls the RadiopIck Trigger Gain. This gain is used to control the sensitivity of the RadioPick.

APERTURE (E6)

TRIGGER DETECTION APERTURE: 3mS - 12mS

This parameter defines the period (in milliseconds) that the triggering algorithm looks back at the energy in the string. A higher APERTURE setting will mean a trigger is more likely to occur.

NOTE: High settings on both APERTURE and STRING TRIGGER GAINS can lead to unwanted triggers when user bends string(s).

HIGHPASS (E7)

HIGHPASS FILTER: 0.01Hz, 0.5Hz, 1Hz, 2Hz, 5Hz, 10Hz, 20Hz, 40Hz, 80Hz, 120Hz, 50Hz+RU, 75Hz+RU, 100Hz+RU, 125Hz+RU, 150Hz+RU, 175Hz+RU, 200Hz+RU

Controls the amount of low frequencies in the bridge piezo signal that are passed to the triggering algorithms. RU means 'rumble filter' and is recommended for heavy right-hand technique. 75Hz+RU is a good starting point.

LOWPASS (E8)

LOWPASS FILTER: 100Hz Sp, 200Hz Sp, 300Hz Sp, 400Hz Sp, 500Hz Sp, 700Hz Sp, 1KHz Sp, 1KHz, 2KHz, 4KHz

Controls the amount of high frequencies that are passed to the triggering algorithm.

NOTE: Generally used to reduce fret noise and other intermittent high frequency content that can lead to unwanted triggers. Sp means spread. This indicates that the cut off frequencies of the lowpass filter for each, individual string are spread proportionally to the open frequency of the strings.

NOTE OFF (E9)

NOTE OFF GAIN: +0dB to +40dB

PRO-4 USER MANUAL

Increases the gain of the signal that feeds into the Note Off detector. This gain setting is common to all strings. A high value should result in a longer note.

DYN WAIT (E10)

DYNAMICS WAIT: 1mS - 10mS

Sets the time (in milliseconds) that the bass waits before sending the MIDI Note On message. By setting a longer DYNAMICS WAIT period the bass has more time to analyse the dynamics of the string and thus can send more accurate MIDI velocity information.

COMPRESS (E11)

STRING TRIGGER COMPRESSION: OFF, 1 – 20

Description required.

SAVE STYLE (E12)

SAVE PLAY STYLE

This fret is used to save the settings associated with Play Styles. When the user actuates the fret the display will prompt them to save the PlayStyle that is currently in use.

To save the current play style click the MIDI switch up/down and the Play Style settings will be saved.

INACTIVE (E13)

CC KNOB (E14)

CONTINUOUS CONTROLLER KNOB: 0 -127

Sets the MIDI continuous controller number that data will be sent on when the MIDI VOLUME KNOB on the bass is turned. This value is by default set to 7 so it controls MIDI volume. Now you have the ability to reassign the continous controller number. Note that this knobs function is tied to the MIDI IN input continous controller 7.

For example, if you set CC KNOB to 30 and send a CC 7 midi command to the midi input of the FSI-1, the CC7 will be remapped to CC30 and be sent out off the MIDI OUT on the module/interface on the appropriate MIDI channels. When the MIDI VOLUME KNOB on the bass is moved its value will momentarily be displayed in the LCD where the selected Style would normal be displayed, after a few seconds the display will resort back to displaying the current Style selected.

PRO-4 USER MANUAL

MIDI IN (E15)

omni, 1 - 16

Sets the MIDI channel that the bass will receive MIDI commands on.

omni Receives on all 16 MIDI channels.

1 - 16 Receives on any one of MIDI channels 1-16.

CC RECEIVE (E16)

CONTINUOUS CONTROLLER RECEIVE NUMBER: 0-127 (7 excluded)

Sets the continuous controller number that the bass recieves CC commands on.

NOTE: CC #7 is reserved for MIDI volume.

E BEND CAL (E17)

E STRING BEND CALIBRATION: 0 - 100

This parameter is used to sync the bass audio with the synth audio when you bend.

A BEND CAL (E18)

A STRING BEND CALIBRATION: 0 - 100

This parameter is used to sync the bass audio with the synth audio when you bend.

D BEND CAL (E19)

D STRING BEND CALIBRATION: 0 - 100

This parameter is used to sync the bass audio with the synth audio when you bend.

G BEND CAL (E20)

G STRING BEND CALIBRATION: 0 - 100

This parameter is used to sync the bass audio with the synth audio when you bend.
