Midi Solutions Breath Controller Box Patchman Music

MIDI Solutions Breath Controller Interface Box

The MIDI Solutions Breath Controller Interface Box is a breath to MIDI converter for use with the Yamaha BC series breath controllers such as the BC3a, BC2, and BC1. The Breath Controller box accepts the Yamaha breath controller as input and generates continuous MIDI data corresponding to the amount of breath pressure applied to it. This Breath Controller box can be programmed to send Aftertouch, Pitchbend, Control Change, System Exclusive. This Breath Controller box has a MIDI Echo parameter that is selectable on/off. By default, it sends MIDI Volume data (CC#7) on MIDI channel 1 in response to your breath pressure, with the Echo parameter set to ON. This can all be changed by programming it with sysex messages (Patchman Music can set it up for you- call us for details). Click here for details. Another unique feature of the Breath Controller is its ability to add a variable amount of curvature to the response of the applied pressure of the breath controller's sensor. This allows you to correct for a nonlinear response, or to add greater response at one end of the breath range compared to the other. Please note that the Yamaha BC series breath controllers have been discontinued. A Yamaha breath controller is NOT included with the sale of this Midi Solutions Breath Controller box. If you are looking for a Yamaha breath controller, Patchman Music often has used ones available here.

Midi Solutions Event Processor Patchman Music

MIDI Solutions Event Processor

This is a very powerful box! If you need to map, filter, and process MIDI events in specific ways, the MIDI Solutions Event Processor may be exactly the solution you are looking for. The Event Processor offers 10 settings, each of which can be programmed with a unique MIDI processing function (for 32 settings see the Event Processor Plus). By combining these settings the Event Processor becomes an extremely powerful tool capable of processing MIDI events in almost any way imaginable. You can map MIDI events or ranges of MIDI events to other MIDI events, filter MIDI events or ranges of MIDI events, trigger MIDI events, toggle between MIDI events, sequence through MIDI events, scale or crossfade MIDI messages, transpose notes, scale velocities, map to and from System Exclusive, NRPN, Bank Select messages, store incoming values in variables for later use... the Event Processor is like a swiss army knife of MIDI processing products, an indispensable tool in any MIDI musician's arsenal.

Casio DH-100, DH-200, DH500, DH-800 Owners! This unit works GREAT to map the Casio's aftertouch data to breath controller data so that you can use our wind controller soundbanks. Ask us when you order and we will be happy to pre-program this unit for your Casio so it is ready to play out of the box!

WX5, WX11, WindJamm'r owners! This unit can be programmed to convert breath controller data into aftertouch data so that you can use our Korg wind controller soundbanks that have been set up for aftertouch. Ask us when you order and we will be happy to pre-program this unit for you so it is ready to play out of the box!

The Event Processor is programmed with the free software available from the Midi Solutions website. Once programmed, its settings are retained even after power is removed. The Event Processor can be reprogrammed with new settings as often as needed.

Midi Solutions Event Processor Plus + Patchman Music

MIDI Solutions Event Processor Plus

Even more powerful than the Even Processor! If you need to map, filter, and process MIDI events in specific ways, the MIDI Solutions Event Processor Plus may be exactly the solution you are looking for. The MIDI Solutions Event Processor Plus offers all of the functionality of the MIDI Solutions Event Processor, with 32 settings instead of the Event Processor's 10, and 8 variable storage locations instead of the Event Processor's 2. Each of the Event Processor Plus's 32 settings can be programmed with a unique MIDI processing function. By combining these settings the Event Processor Plus becomes an extremely powerful tool capable of processing MIDI events in almost any way imaginable. You can map MIDI events or ranges of MIDI events to other MIDI events, filter MIDI events or ranges of MIDI events, trigger MIDI events, toggle between MIDI events, sequence through MIDI events, scale or crossfade MIDI messages, transpose notes, scale velocities, map to and from System Exclusive, NRPN, Bank Select messages, store incoming values in variables for later use... the Event Processor is like a swiss army knife of MIDI processing products, an indispensable tool in any MIDI musician's arsenal.

The Event Processor Plus works by comparing each incoming MIDI event with each of its 32 settings. When an incoming MIDI event matches a setting, the event is processed according to that setting. By combining different settings for different incoming events, the Event Processor Plus becomes an extremely powerful tool capable of achieving virtually any combination of MIDI-processing functions.

Midi Solutions Pedal Controller Patchman Music

MIDI Solutions Pedal Controller

The Pedal Controller accepts an expression pedal (such as the Yamaha FC7 or Roland EV-5 or any potentiometer connected to a 1/4" stereo phone plug) as an input and generates continuous MIDI data based on its position. The Pedal Controller may be inserted inline at any point in the MIDI data stream allowing you to send continuous controller information to any device in your MIDI setup. The Pedal Controller can be programmed to send Aftertouch, Pitch Bend, Control Change, or System Exclusive. The Pedal Controller has a MIDI Echo parameter that is selectable on / off.

TURBO VL Users: You can program this pedal to send MIDI continuous controller #4 so that the pedal will introduce growl into most of the wind instrument sounds on the TURBO VL! We can pre-program the pedal for this MIDI controller- just ask us when ordering.

The Pedal Controller accurately tracks the position of the pedal or potentiometer connected to it. Small fluctuations are eliminated when the pedal is in a stationary position and no extraneous messages are sent out. When the pedal is moved slightly, the Pedal Controller will send an update even if its position has only changed by a single value. Many control wheels or knobs only update themselves every two or every four values resulting in coarser control and sometimes zipper noise.

Another unique feature of the Pedal Controller is its ability to add a variable amount of curvature to the response of the pedal. This allows you to correct for pedals with nonlinear responses, or to add greater response at one end of the pedal compared to the other.

Midi Solutions Router Patchman Music

MIDI Solutions Router

The MIDI Solutions Router is a 1-in 2-out MIDI data router / filter. Selected MIDI messages can be routed to either, both, or neither of the Router's two MIDI outputs. The Router can route/filter selected ranges of most MIDI data types. Messages can also be rechannelized to any other MIDI channel. (for on-the-fly rechannelizing, see the MIDI Solutions Footswitch Controller).

Attention EWI3000m, EWI3020m, EWI3030m, MIDI EVI owners using the TURBO VL70-m: If you need to block MIDI controller #65 data (Portamento Switch) - this pedal can be programmed to do that! We can pre-program the Router for this function- just ask us when ordering.

Attention EWI4000m Users: Up until version 2.4 of the EWI4000s, the EWI4000s always sent MIDI Program Change messages and there was no way to turn off transmission of this data. The MIDI Solutions Router provided an easy way to block MIDI Program Change messages. We can pre-program the Router for this function- just ask us when ordering.

The Router will accept a total of 10 settings. Settings are stored in a priority format - if two settings conflict the higher priority setting takes precedence.

The Router is programmed by sending it MIDI System Exclusive messages. This can be done easily with the Processors Programming Tools software available for free from the Midi Solutions website. Once programmed, its settings are retained even after power is removed. The Router can be reprogrammed with new settings as often as needed.

MIDI Solutions Quadra Merge

The MIDI Solutions QuadraMerger is a 4-in 1-out MIDI Merger. All MIDI messages appearing at the four inputs are merged to the output (including System Exclusive, MIDI Clock, and MIDI Time Code messages). A fast merging algorithm ensures that all MIDI data is processed accurately with the minimal possible delay.

Midi Solutions Quadra Thru Patchman Music

MIDI Solutions Quadra Thru

The MIDI Solutions Quadra Thru is a 1-in 4-out MIDI Thru Box. All MIDI messages appearing at the input are sent to all four Thru outputs. Active circuitry cleans up any skewing of MIDI data bits that has occurred at the input, ensuring reliable operation in setups that require daisy chaining or long cable runs.

Wind controller players can use this to split the MIDI signal coming from the wind controller and send it to up to four modules with the absolute minimum latency! This is a better solution than chaining your modules one after the other. This box adds essentially zero latency (it is less than 0.00002 seconds!)

The Quadra Thru is MIDI-powered, and requires no batteries or power supply to operate with most MIDI products (see FAQs - Power and FAQs - LED for more information). A MIDI indicator LED lights up when the product is powered and flashes when MIDI data passes through it.

Midi Solutions Footswitch Controller Patchman Music

MIDI Solutions Footswitch Controller

The MIDI Solutions Footswitch Controller provides a 1/4" phone jack input for connection to a footswitch or contact closure which can be used to trigger MIDI events (for 8 footswitch inputs in a single rack space unit, MIDI Solutions makes the F8 model). Triggered MIDI events are merged with incoming MIDI messages and sent to the MIDI output of the Footswitch Controller.

This unit is GREAT for TRANSPOSING on the fly with your MIDI wind controller or MIDI keyboard! We can pre-program this unit to do this function if you wish. Just ask for this when ordering.

Triggered event types are programmable and include Note, Control Change, Pitch Bend, Program Change, Start/Stop, System Exclusive. Other functions include Program Change INC/DEC, Rechannelize, Transpose, Tap Tempo, Note-on Filter. MIDI Echo and Footswitch Toggle parameters are selectable on/off.

The Footswitch Controller is programmed by sending it MIDI System Exclusive messages (see FAQs - Programming). This can be done easily with the Processors Programming Tools software. Once programmed, its settings are retained even after power is removed. The Footswitch Controller can be reprogrammed with new settings as often as needed.

Midi Solutions Power Adaptor Patchman Music

MIDI Solutions Power Adapter

The Power Adapter provides power to operate MIDI Solutions products in instances when it is not available or where a large number of MIDI Solutions products are being chained in series (see FAQs - LED for a list of products that would require this unit). This unit is needed when using any of the Midi Solutions products with the Yamaha WX7, EZ-TP and others. The Power Adapter has an optically isolated MIDI In, a MIDI Thru, and a power connection for a 9VAC wall adapter (wall adapter IS included). It's possible to power up to 20 MIDI Solutions products from the Power Adapter's single Thru output.

The Power Adapter can also be used in a transmitter/receiver configuration to send MIDI over long distances. It has been tested to operate over a 4000 foot range using average 2-conductor audio cable, however individual results will vary. Since MIDI inputs from various manufacturers are designed differently, in some cases two Power Adapters may be required- one at the transmitting end and another at the receiving end. The AC Adaptor is included.
