Modular Patch Utility for Clavia Nord® Modular 3.0 patch files, version 1.03 © Christer Lindström 1999. DESCRIPTION ----------- This utility assigns MIDI controllers and knobs to your patch files using user created patch files as templates for how controllers shall be assigned to different modules. HOW TO USE THIS UTILITY ----------------------- 1. Create the template patch files in the Modular Editor: Drop the modules you want to be affected by the program and give them a uniqe name and assign MIDI controllers and/or knobs of your selection to relevant parameters. If you, for example, want the program to assign controller 1 to cutoff regardless of filter module type (Filter A to F) you have to create one template patch file for each filtertype, where each filter module has identical names. This is due to the fact that only one parameter can be assigned to a controller in the Modular Editor. Note that modules common in all the template patch files needs only to be included in one of the files, as you can select multiple files in the Open dialog box. 2. Name the modules in the patch you want to assign controllers/knobs to: Give those modules that you want to be affected identical names to those of the corresponding modules in the template patch files. If several modules are given the same name the first one matching will get controllers/knobs assigned to it. 3. Assign MIDI controllers and/or knobs using this program: Select what you want to assign (controllers, knobs or both) in the Assign box and then select your template patch files by pressing the button named "Select Template Patch Files...". If you want old assignments in the target patch file to be removed check the "Remove old assignments" box. Controllers/knobs can now be assigned to patch files by pressing the "Assign To Patch Files..." button. Tip: If you highlight the file selection area in the File Open dialog box and press [Ctrl]+[A] all files in the current directory will be selected. !! Note: This utility will only work with Nord® Modular 3.0 patch files. !!
