tion for the Modulation Wheel is to
blend in vibrato for a sound. As a
standard it is usually assigned to
MIDI-Controller Nr. 1 (“Modula-
tion”). Of course the Modulation
Wheel can control other things
instead of vibrato, e.g. the opening
of a filter. As a matter of fact the
modulation wheel can be used to
control several parameters at the
same time, because it can be
assigned to different modulation
destinations via the modulation
matrix - by the way, the same
applies to the other control fea-
tures. These multiple assignment
capabilities enable you to create
very complex sound changes, one
might call them Sound-”Mor-
phing.”

The Virus kb / Indigo allows you
to freely choose the controller that
the Modulation Wheel sends - just
in case you need it (Parameter KEYB
MODWHEEL (Off, 1...127)). The stan-
dard, (and the factory preset) for
the Modulation Wheel is - as men-
tioned above - MIDI-Controller 1.
You could control any of the Virus’
parameters by assigning the wheel
to the corresponding controller.

Although this would work, we
strongly advise against doing so. If
you assign a different controller
than “1” to the Modulation Wheel,
the Virus’ software no longer rec-
ognizes the Modulation Wheel as
such, and connections in the mod-
ulation matrix, (ASSIGN-Menue)
that use the modulation wheel as
the source of modulation no
longer have any effect. The right
way to do it, which we strongly
recommend, is to leave the Modu-
lation Wheel on Controller 1, and to
select the corresponding modula-
tion destination for the wheel in
the matrix. Then the adjustments
are also valid for each sound, and
everything works the way it is sup-
posed to.

Let us turn to the two pedal inter-
faces: They enable you to connect
switch pedals (on/off) or control
pedals (constant control signal).
You can choose a MIDI-Controller
for the pedals (Parameter: KEYB
PEDAL 1 or 2 (Off, 1...127)). Standard
are Controller 64 (hold or sustain
pedal, the note played is held) and
7 (Channel- or MIDI-volume, the
volume of the sound played.) Just
