Arturia MicroLab [20/24] Mod strip

4.2.2.4. Mod Strip

• The Mode drop-down menu lets you switch MicroLab's Mod strip on or off. The

default

Control

setting means the strip will operate as a modulation controller.

Set this to

Off

you would like to deactivate the strip.

• Channel lets you select an output MIDI channel for the Mod strip. Note that by

selecting

1-16

, you set the Mod strip's output MIDI channel explicitly and this

does not have to be same as the MicroLab keyboard's output MIDI channel (for

example, keyboard can be on channel 1 but Mod strip on channel 5). It is also

possible to have the Mod strip "follow" whatever MIDI channel the keyboard is

using by selecting

Keyboard

from the drop-down menu.

• CC Number lets you select the MIDI CC number that the Mod strip will control,

with a short description of what it typically controls according to the MIDI

specification.



♪: Note that not all software instrument designers adhere to the MIDI specification for CC and may

choose to use CC numbers in non-standard ways. Refer to your virtual instrument's user guide to see

what parameters you can control with the modulation strip.

• The Min Value and Max Value settings let you set minimum and maximum

bounds on the modulation strip. The default

(minimum) and

127

(maximum)

settings give you access over the entire modulation range when using Mod strip.

Reducing this range, for example setting the minimum to

and the maximum

100

, will mean that the Mod strip will range from 50 to 100 as your finger

moves from bottom to top.



!: If you would like the mod strip to work in reverse (moving your finger down toward you

increases

the output value) you can reverse the Min and Max values (i.e., set Min to 127 and Max to 0)
