Midi over USB (CC resolution)
Midi over USB (CC resolution)
Does the USB jack offer increased resolution over control parameters or is it the same resolution as MIDI? (8-bit)
I think it's 14-bit, like the DIN jacks. Older MIDI devices were 7-bit, whereas newer MIDI devices are 14 bit.

Yes. Although it is compatible with 7 bit applications. I only use MIDI for patch storage and the like, so the resolution doesn't mean much to me. But some people use it all the time, and for those people, they need the 14 bit resolution.

If I recall correctly, not all of the parameters are 14 bit.Voltor07 wrote:Yes. Although it is compatible with 7 bit applications.

From the manual LP 2.0 Addendum:
The Modulation Wheel and Filter Cutoff parameters now send and receive high-resolution, 14-bit Midi CC
messages. This allows for fi ner control and smoother changes, whether you are using the LP as a MIDI con-
troller, or controlling the LP via MIDI from your sequencer. The MIDI CC channels are mapped as follows;
MSB indicates the “regular” CC number for the parameter, and LSB indicates the high-resolution fi ne control.
If you are only sending 7-bit MIDI CC to the LP, use the MSB channel number by itself.

MOD WHEEL:
MOD WHEEL: MSB = 1, LSB = 33
FILTER CUTOFF: MSB = 19, LSB = 51
hey voltor,
..with your love of interconnecting equipment, why not give MIDI a try using a CV-MIDI converter? ... some pretty amazing things you can whip up...
..remember the filter resolution is HUGE... super smooth... if you hear stepping using it you should be conducting the NY Philharmonic your ears are so good...

I'd rather get a MIDI to CV converter. That would give me CV outputs on my LP. I am aware of the possibilities of MIDI, but I'd rather do things the old-fashioned way...with voltage. Of course, I'll be going more into MIDI after I get my Taurus III's and .com cabinets, but for now, I'll stick with CV.
