3.3.3. Learn Mode / MIDI Functions
In „learn“ mode you will determine how Dark Energy II will process incoming MIDI data. In addition to this,
you will control the settings of the internal arpeggiator and set the reference tone which will determine the
lowest key of Dark Energy II‘s keyboard range.
You can access each function via MIDI program changes. The table below lists all functions. The notes (1)
to (10) explain all functions in detail.

Notes: (please read completely and carefully – thank you!)
(1) MIDI channel/reference for CV1=0V
In case of an incoming note event in learn mode, the note number and the channel of the event will be ta-
ken as the new reference tone and MIDI channel of Dark Energy II. The reference key will be the MIDI note
number that is assigned to 0V CV1 output. In practice you simply enter the learn mode and press the key
on your MIDI keyboard that is supposed to be 0V CV1. MIDI note events below the reference note or higher
than 5 octaves above the reference note will be ignored as the CV1 voltage range of Dark Energy II
is 0...+5V. The factory default settings of reference key and MIDI channel are note number 36 (C) and
channel 1.
