Is Pot Mapping legal outside of Denver?

Post by HookedOnSonics » Wed May 25, 2016 12:47 am

We just saw a Voyager XL pot mapping video, which in turned opened Pandora's box for us. We're speechless. We had no idea of that tip/trick. Its a real game changer for us. We were just getting ready to put the XL up for sale ... what the heck were we thinking --- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gXN1yxax448

We looked in the manual, but so far nothing screams at us that you can find pot mapping on page xxxx.

JimKnopf shared this with us over on the Korg site:

pot map 1 source: key pitch
pot map 1 destination: master volume
pot map 1 direction: normal
pot map 1 amount: 25%

The video gave us pot mapping inspiration that could accent our sound and lead us into the new Voyager DXL ... :-)

Thank you Fuzzo for the video - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AMeNgVZC3ko

Sooooooooooooo does anyone have any other pot mapping directions and or advice. Knowing us, will pot map every preset we have an won't know how to get back :lol:

Well, there this:

KnobTweak > files > Voyager Pot Mapping.pdf
Explains how Pot Mapping works, and includes a dozen examples. Here's two from that doc:

8. Filter Cutoff with Pitch Bend
To provide more emphasis on Voyager solos, use this mapping to boost the filter cutoff when the Pitch Bend wheel is increased.
(Alternate: Try this mapping with Pitch Bend set to OFF, so that it has no effect on pitch. Pull the Pitch Bend wheel all the way back and release it. The wheel will spring forward, over-shooting the center, causing the filter to ‘bounce’. Funky & fun!)

Src: Pitch Bend
Dest: Filt Cutoff
Dir: Normal
Amt: 25%

9. Mod Wheel Crossfade
This program uses two map locations to adjust a pair of oscillator levels in opposite directions, resulting in an oscillator crossfade as the Mod Wheel is adjusted. Useful for crossfading or mixing contrasting oscillator waves, or intervals.

Map 1
Src: Mod Wheel
Dest: Osc 1 Lvl
Dir: Inverse
Amt: 100%

Map 2
Src: Mod Wheel
Dest: Osc 2 Lvl
Dir: Normal
Amt: 100%

---

Should give you a good head start on PM explorations. :D

Wow..........GAE brings good things to light. Thank You BIG TIME!!!. Now all we need is for Moog Engineering to figure out how to create 25 hours in a day so we can at least get one hour of sleep ... :lol:
