You may have noticed that two of the ports on the back of your qCONNECT are different.

They've got red or white nuts on them, and they have more options in their setup menus.

What's the deal with that?

We designed ports X and Y to allow for more control and more power than the other six. We

figured that while it would be nice to have eight separate MIDI outputs, you might want

something else like a tap tempo or an expression pedal to really turbocharge your rig. So

we packed as much power in those two ports as we could. We'll cover what you can do with

them, along with the correct Setup menu parameters to get you going.

MIDI Output: The selected port sends MIDI on its tip, ring, or both. This is the most common

use for these ports, and they work just like ports A, B, C, etc. in this mode.

Setup Menu: CFG.X or CFG.Y = MID.T (tip) MID.R (ring) or MID.B (both)

Tap Tempo: The selected port interfaces with a standard normally-open (NO) momentary

foot switch. Tapping the connected foot switch will send a tap tempo message to the devices

connected to the other ports on the qCONNECT.

Setup Menu: CFG.X or CFG.Y = TAP

Use the CH.X or CH.Y Setup menus to tell qCONNECT which devices you would like to receive

taps. Example: If you want to send tap tempo to your Tonal Recall (dev C) and your Warped Vinyl

(dev D,) but not your Brothers (dev A) or your Condor (dev B) then you would select:

CFG.X = TAP

Expression Pedal: The selected port interfaces with a standard TRS expression pedal.

Moving the expression pedal will send a MIDI message to the devices connected to the other

ports on the qCONNECT.

Setup Menu: CFG.X or CFG.Y = EXP

Use the CH.X or CH.Y Setup menus to tell qCONNECT which devices you would like to receive

expression. Example: If you want to send tap tempo to your Enzo (dev F) and your Syntax Error

(dev G,) but not your Polymoon (dev C) or your Dark World (dev D) then you would select:

CFG.X = EXP

NOTE: You can set up either port for any type of configuration.

That means you could have both ports doing tap or expression! "That seems crazy, " I hear you

say. Well, it's not so crazy and I'll tell you why.

Let's say you want to use two expression pedals - you could use one in port X to control your

Condor (dev A,) Syntax Error (dev B,) and Warped Vinyl (dev C), and another in port Y to control

your Tonal Recall (dev D).

Example: CFG.X = EXP, CFG.Y = EXP. CH.X1 = ABC0, CH.X2 = 0000. CH.Y1 = 000D, CH.Y2 = 0000.

MIDI In & Out: The selected port sends MIDI just like ports A-F, but it also receives MIDI and

transmits it to the devices connected to the other ports on the qCONNECT.

Setup Menu: CFG.X or CFG.Y = MD.io

Port X = MIDI output on TIP, MIDI input on RING. Designed to work with Meris or Alexander.

Port Y = MIDI output on RING, MIDI input on TIP. Designed to work with micro.clock.
