By default, that virtual switch isn't mapped to any of the entries on the 'General settings | Switch (MIDI) inputs' screen, but you can map it yourself to whichever you prefer by using the 'Organ settings | Connect switch (MIDI) inputs to organ switches' screen.
Hope that helps.
Hi all, my first post .....
Having just started with the free trial version I have configured it so that I can use my computer keys to change stops, pistons etc. So in the General Settings Midi Inputs screen I have used the codes listed in the manual appendix to enter into the 'Event Number'. I have truly amazed myself by getting this far, (unlike Murphy's Law which states that anything that can possibly go wrong will go wrong, Foster's law is that even if it can't possibly go wrong it still will!) But one thing is beating me - if I can't identify the Gt and Ped Pistons Coupled stop in the General Settings section and therefore can't allocate a computer key to it, how can Organ Settings then recognise which computer key I wish to assign to it? I'm sure there's a simple answer which this elderly technophobe has not sussed out. Anyone know it in plain English words of the proverbial one syllable please?
Its like a patch panel. You connect a MIDI input switch (hardware) to the Organ (virtual) switch by associating them in the 'Organ settings | Connect switch (MIDI) inputs to organ switches' screen. One from the column Left and One from the window shade on the Right.
OK, the Gt & Ped Coupled is NOT in the 'General settings | Switch (MIDI) inputs' it is in the 'Organ Settings | connect switch MID'I. You can set up a switch in the 'General settings | Switch (MIDI) inputs' that is not committed to anything else and then go to 'Organ settings | Connect switch (MIDI) inputs to organ switches' screen and tell the Organ switch to respond to that MIDI switch.
In the left hand column are the pistons, stops and couplers from the sample set. Highlight the one you want to operate. On the right is a pull down listing all the 'General settings | Switch (MIDI) inputs' (these are the ones you associated with the computer codes). Select the one with the computer code you want to use for the coupler. Say OK and it should work now.
Pax,
