Warwick FRAMUS Owner's Manual - Midi Interface

MIDI INTERFACE
The Dragon features an integrated MIDI interface. This enables all the switching functions of the device to be controlled via
MIDI. It also allows a MIDI program number to be assigned to the switch settings which can then be stored. MIDI messages
received by the Dragon can also be forwarded to other devices. The interface receives MIDI data via the MIDI IN socket and
passes it on to other devices via the MIDI THRU.
The Interface receives Data on all MIDI-Channels. Please pay attention to the Tab below. An example: When you want to select
Channel 3 you have to push both the Buttons for CLEAN and for CRUNCH while turning power on.
Turn Power on while pushing:

Program change messages can be handled for all 128 program numbers (CBh 00h … 7Fh) as well as control change
messages for controllers 1 to 4 (BBh 01h xxh, BBh 02h xxh, BBh 03h xxh, BBh 04h xxh, where "xxh” may be any value between
00h … 7 Fh). As a result, there are two principal control options:
1. Program saving and reloading
To assign the key settings of your Dragon to a MIDI program please do the following: Send your Dragon the favoured
program number which will be used later to reload the setting. The red LED above the STORE button on the rear con-
trol panel lights up. Now select the desired channel and the MASTER Volume on your Dragon (e.g. CRUNCH +
MASTER 2). Now you push STORE and the setting is saved – the LED turns off. If you fail to press STORE, the
existing data will not be overwritten. (Manual switching has priority but is not stored automatically).
2. Control using the buttons
You can also use MIDI Controller messages for the Dragon´s switching using the following table in which Controller
values may lie anywhere between 0 to 127.
