Channel Mode Messages

Black Box always receives Channel Mode messages on all 16 MIDI channels. The computer control panel software application
that comes with the Black Box has a MIDI input filter to select which or all of the 16 MIDI channels are passed to Black Box. The
following messages are recognized.

Status Second Third Description

1001 nnnn 0kkkkkkk 0vvvvvvv Note On message; nnnn = channel, kkkkkkk = note number and vvvvvvv = velocity.

If effect = arpeggiator sequence, note number is used to transpose the sequence down or
up. Number 60 = no transposition.

If effect = any of the MIDI options, then the effect’s specified MIDI data source is used to
modulate the frequency of the effect’s specified filter type.

1011 nnnn 0ccccccc 0vvvvvvv Control Change; nnnn = channel, ccccccc = control number, vvvvvvv= value.

If control number = 32 (bank select) and value = 0, Factory Preset bank is selected; if
value = 1, User Preset bank is selected. If the specified control bank select is different
than of the active preset, the active preset is changed to the respective preset for selected
bank, factory or user. Power-up bank selection depends on the active preset on power-up.

If effect = “MIDI Controller to Filter” or “MIDI Controller to Flanger,” then the data value
of control number 1, 11, 16, 70 or 74 modulate filter or flanger frequency.

1100 nnnn 0ppppppp Program change; ppppppp = new program number.

Used to select presets F0-F99 or U0-U99, depending on last received “bank select”
controller message. If ppppppp is greater than 99, message is ignored.
