How do I configure the EXP/ MIDI jack on Brig?

To configure the EXP/MIDI jack on Brig:

  • Press and hold the footswitch for at least 2 seconds while connecting power to Brig.  Once the LED flashes RED, release the footswitch.
  • Turn the MIX knob to select the function of the rear panel’s EXP/MIDI jack.  The LED will change color to indicate the current status as you turn the knob.
    • Expression Pedal mode: GREEN (default, minimum) – Allows continuous control over any (1 or more) of the knobs in any direction with a standard TRS expression pedal.
    • Favorite mode: AMBER (11 o’clock) – Allows you to recall a Favorite setting using a Strymon MiniSwitch (or a MultiSwitch Plus footswitch set to Tap Mode from TAP/FAV/BOOST mode*).
    • Tap mode: RED (12 o’clock) – Using a Strymon MiniSwitch (or a MultiSwitch Plus footswitch set to  Tap Mode from TAP/FAV/BOOST mode*), allows you to tap in a tempo in quarter notes for your delay repeats to follow.
      • To set the TAP DIVISION for both external and Onboard Tap modes:
        • Press and hold the footswitch for 1 second to enter Onboard Tap Mode.
        • Turn the TIME knob to the following positions to set the TAP DIVISION:

          • Minimum = Triplets
          • 10 o’clock = Eighth Notes
          • 1 o’clock = dotted Eighth Notes
          • Maximum = Quarter Notes (default)

 

    • Infinite mode: PURPLE (1 o’clock) – Using a Strymon MiniSwitch (or a MultiSwitch Plus footswitch set to  Tap Mode from TAP/FAV/BOOST mode*), allows for infinitely delay repeats of the input signal – essentially the same as turning the REPEATS knob to maximum.
    • MIDI mode: BLUE (maximum) – Allows for the use of a Strymon MultiSwitch Plus or an external MIDI controller:
      • A MultiSwitch Plus device can be set to PRESET Mode** to access three presets or to CUSTOM Mode*** where it’s A, B, and C switches control TAP, FAVORITE preset, and INFINITE respectively.
      • Full MIDI functionality is available by sending MIDI Program Change message via 1/4″ TRS MIDI connection using a Strymon Conduit or MIDI EXP cable.  Up to 300 presets are available via MIDI.
  • Press the footswitch to store the EXP/MIDI jack mode and begin using Brig.
