Macros are where you can assign various Minimonsta2 parameters to a set of Macro knobs and then changing the position of those knobs will affect the assigned parameters. These assignments can be as simple (ie with a single parameter applied) or complex, with multiple parameters applied at different values.
To apply a parameter to a specific Macro knob:
<aside> ⚠️ * You can change the method to adjust the macro amount in the Settings Window
</aside>
<aside> ⚠️ The glowing markings and macro indicator lines will disappear when the macro is not in immediate use. They’ll display again when you click on a macro knob.
</aside>
Once your assignments are complete, the numerical display adjacent to the Macro knob will indicate the number of parameters that Macro knob will control when turned.
<aside> ⚠️ A macro can control any number of parameters. However, each parameter can only be controlled by a single macro knob.
</aside>
You can also click on that display and remove any parameters via the arrow adjacent to its name and the aptly named ‘remove’ text.
As we explained earlier, the Macro section can be used to create simple or highly complex set ups. And because Macro knobs can also be controlled by velocity, aftertouch and MIDI CC’s, the performance possibilities are vast.
To set specific Macro values to an assigned parameter, make sure the coloured line is evident on that parameter and the main display is showing that parameter as an active Macro control destination (eg VCF CUTOFF MACRO AMOUNT). Then double-click the main display window and type the required value.
<aside> ⚠️ It is not possible to assign macro control to aftertouch or velocity modulation amount knobs.
