MIDI Controllers
The VST version of Dr. Device responds to MIDI continuous controller messages. You can use hardware MIDI
controllers, such as MIDI slider boxes or the knobs found on some MIDI keyboards, to adjust Dr. Device’s
parameters.
The VST version of Dr. Device has a simple “MIDI Learn” mode for assigning its controls to MIDI controllers.
To assign a control to a MIDI controller:
First, hold down the shift and ctrl keys on your PC’s keyboard, or shift and cmd keys if you’re using a Mac, and
click once on the control. A white box will be drawn around the control to indicate that it is ready to learn
which MIDI controller it will be assigned to.
Next, move the MIDI controller to send a continuous controller message—turn the knob, press the button,
move the slider, whatever is appropriate.
The white square will disappear. Now the control will move when you manipulate the MIDI controller.
Dr. Device waits until it has received two consecutive continuous controller messages with the same controller
number before it makes an assignment. This filters out extraneous data sent by some MIDI controllers. If you
are assigning a button or switch on a MIDI controller, you may have to press or move the switch twice before
Reverence recognizes the controller and assigns it to the desired control.
To assign a different MIDI controller to a control, repeat the same procedure using a different controller.
To cancel MIDI Learn mode without assigning a controller, hold down the SHIFT and CTRL keys (SHIFT and
CMD keys on a Mac) and click in any empty area in Dr. Device’s window (i.e., don’t click on another control).
The white box will disappear.
To remove a MIDI controller assignment from a control, SHIFT and CTRL keys, (SHIFT and CMD keys on a
Mac) click on the control once so that the white box appears, then click again on the same control.
Dr. Device’s MIDI controller assignments apply to all presets and instances of Dr. Device, in all host
applications that you use. The MIDI assignments are stored in a special file on your hard drive. The contents
of this file are read when Dr. Device is loaded by your host. If you have two or more instances of Dr. Device in
