Devices

You can set 9 differents types of devices targeted :

• Eventide H9 or TimeFactor (Looper)

As you can read Eventide and Strymon are pre-configured to Match with Midi. The Generics are 4 units that you can customize (pots (Control Change), Expression pedal(Pitchbend or Control Change), bypass type (Program Change-Control Change + number) . You can now see how much EvenMidi is powerfull and can control any Midi device such as your amp, your whammy, your AxeFx...

Edit your sound directly

10 pots and 4 soft footswiches for a total control. Adjust and play with your tone live!
No more time on your PC or iPad for tone edition. All parameters are under your eyes and you can play with it. Think about psychedelic delay auto-oscillation for example. In addition to guitarists, this controller is also very appreciate by musicians in electronic music : They love potentiometers!

Solo Mode

The Solo Mode can only control one device at time and you can switch between devices. Scroll through the presets, load them, activate PSW Performance footswitch to freeze a delay or change your rotary speed for example. If you use several Midi devices in Solo Mode, PSW footswitch allows you to switch devices. Very handy.

You can limit the number of preset for example from 1 to 25 instead of 1 to 99

Live Mode

The Live Mode controls all devices at the same time. There are two possibilities to access presets :

• Instant access to 27 presets (9 banks/3 presets) for a perfect Live experience. Limit the bank number as you need (1 to 9 banks).
• Access to 99 presets by scrolling as Solo Mode, PSW switch can be set to Tap tempo.  Limit the preset number as you need (1 to 99).

Customize your presets

You can fully edit & save 27 presets. Here is a concrete example of what contains an edited preset :

Preset 1A contains:

• H9(1) : programChange 2
• H9(2) : programChange 17
• Marshall JVM : programChange 21
• Whammy : programChange 21
• Potentiometers target H9(2)
• Expression pedal targets Whammy (CC11)

Customize your devices

You can customize 4 generic devices as you need. Here is a full example.

Generic 1 device specifications:

• 10 knobs assigned to [CC1-CC10] (control change) | range CC0-99
• Expression pedal send PitchBend | or range CC0-99
• Bypass is set to PC0 (program change 0) | or range CC0-99 or off

When you edit your Generic specifications, you can test it directly before storing in order to check your knobs and expression pedal work as you want.

Looper Mode

With Looper Mode, you can direct access/exit and control the whole looper like a factor stompbox and more. The Looper Preset is loaded automatically (press active footswitch 2sec) and you can control all Looper parameters as the TimeFactor pedal. You can switch from one device to another while your loop is playing. The Strymon timeline is already set to access looper. press Stop Footswitch 2sec to exit Looper Mode and back Solo Mode.

Expression pedal

Plug an expression pedal to control a parameter with your foot. Volume, Wha, Pitch, Hotknob...Eventide are target to Pitchbend and Strymon to Control Change needed. You can calibrate your expression pedal in the settings.

Tips

Here is Tips and shortcuts to access everything:

• Scroll through your presets quickly by holding Up or Down footswitch.
• Put your potentiometers ON or OFF quickly by holding 2 sec. Up & Down footswitches. Very handy when you are on stage.

Midi In/Out Thru

Connect all your Midi devices. For example if you use another Midi controller before the EvenMidi,
you can plug it in the EvenMidi because all Midi messages received (MIDI IN) are THRU (send to MIDI OUT) including Midi Clock. You can also control EvenMidi by sending PC and CC messages (to control Modes, presets...) on its specific Midi channel since 1.4 firmware.
