Introduction

Welcome

Thank you for choosing PRO-12 ASB. You will have just as much

fun with your PRO-12 ASB as we had when developing this unique

and characteristic Synthesizer. Please read the manual thoroughly

in order to fully take advantage of the many features the PRO-12

ASB has to offer.

Introduction

From todays view the configuration of the PRO-12 ASB can be

described as classic style. Two multifunctional Oscillators are used

as sound source, which can access various waveforms - even at

the same time. The Oscillators are mixed with White Noise within

the Mixer Section, followed by the 24dB Lowpass-Filter with Reso-

nance and the Amplifier.

You will find two Envelope curves, both of them with Attack, De-

cay, Sustain and Release, which are dedicated to the Filter and

Amplifier. The Filter envelope, Oszillator B and the LFO can be

routedtodifferent Modulation targets. By using te Modulation Wheel

you will experience a lot of interesting Combinations of Modulation

Sources and Destinations, which is certainly one of the major

highlights of the PRO-12. In addition to the Original the PRO-12

was equipped with an Effects Section with Chorus/Flanger and

Delay. Not enough, we thought MIDI Clock Synchrnisation and

Aftertouch would also fit well.

Finally the PRO-12 ASB now comes with 12 voices and provides

amazing results especially in the Unisono mode.

Getting started

Making Connections

Connecting the power adaptor

To connect your PRO-12 ASB with the power supply, please use

the power adaptor coming with the PRO-12 ASB. Connect the

poweradaptortoyourPRO-12ASB.Beforeconnectingthepower

adaptor to the socket, make sure it is compatible to the power

supplysystem. Upon loss of the power supply,a standard AC or

DC 12V / 1.5 A power supply can be used as a replacement.

The connection to the PRO-12 ASB is made with a hollow plug

(5.5 mm x 2.1mm x 11.5 mm, center positive).

MIDI connections

There are two ways to play your PRO-12 ASB using MIDI:

1. Connect your PRO-12 directly to a master keyboard.

2. Connect your PRO-12 to the MIDI port found on your

computer in order to use it with a sequencer or the

PRO-12 Remote-Software.

Connect the MIDI in and out of your PRO-12 ASB with the MIDI

in and out of your keyboard or computer. The MIDI input of your

PRO-12 ASB has to be connected to the MIDI output of your

keyboard or computer and MIDI output of the PRO-12 ASB with

the MIDI input of your keyboard or computer.

The incoming MIDI signal can also control another instrument

via MIDI thru. If your computer does not have a MIDI port, you

can use the USB connection as an alternative.

Audio Connections

Inorder to obtain soundoutput,youmay either connect theMINI-

MAX ASB stereo outputs to a mixer’s inputs, computer’s inputs

or HiFi stereo input.

You can also process an external signal

byconnectinganexternalsourcetoyour

MINIMAX ASB input.

Power Switch

In order to operate the MINIMAX ASB please

turn the power switch on.

USB Connections and driver installation (Windows XP)

Rather than using MIDI to

connectyour PRO-12ASBto

a computer, you can use the

implemented USB interface.

To utilize this function, you

will need the Windows Ser-

vice Pack 2.

AfterconnectingthePRO-12

to a computer, windows will

automatically recognize the

PRO-12 ASB as an audio

USB instrument. No extra

drivers are required for this

device. You can start playing

rightaway! Afterstartingyour

sequencer program (here:

CubaseSX), you can use the USB audio instrument driver as a

MIDI port. In very few cases, you may encounter that under

older versions of Windows XP (before Service Pack 2), the USB

port will not show availability after disconnecting the PRO-12

ASB. In this case, please reboot Windows XP. After rebooting,

your USB port will show availability again.

Installation of the Remote-Software

To install the Remote-Software coming with the MINIMAX ASB on

your PC, please put the CD-ROM with print MINIMAX ASB into the

CD-R drive of your Computer. The Install Dialog should then appear

on your screen automatically. In case you have de-activated the

automatic Start-function of your CD-R

drive, please start the installation by

double clicking the file „setup.exe” on

the CD.

drop down menu „Installation path“. If you don’t choose a dedicated

path here, the Remote-Software will be installed to

“C:\Programs\Minimax”. The required empty

space on your hard-disk is 6.7 MB.

Within “Choose Startmenu-Folder” you can de-

figurations and various Display features.

Match

This display shows you all adjustable values for

every parameter of the chosen preset . Turn a

knob long enough so the LED (PRESET) in the

middleblinks.Ifthechangedvalueissmallerthan

the one in the Preset, then one of the three LEDs

(left) will light up. Should the value be greater,

then one the first LEDs (right) will light up. In this

respect, you can easily make out the Preset’s

value.

Value With the Data-Wheel (on the left) and

the DOWN/UP buttons you can set

the parameters of the Configuration

Strip, like i.e. MIDI-Channel or

Volume. Choose between the mono-

phonic / polyphonic mode by pressing

DOWN and UP button at the same

time (MONO/POLY). The display will show “of” for monophonic

and “on” for polyphonic mode.

Midi

Activate the CHANNEL button in order to select the desired MIDI

channel with the DOWN/UP buttons or Data Wheel.

If a small vertical line appears under the channel

number, this means the instrument receives MIDI

data on all channels (Omni-Mode). Midi data will be

sent though, on the selected channel. Without the

line, the instrument receives and sends MIDI data

on the selected channel.

Midi Values: MIDI Channel 1 … 16 Omni Off

MIDI Channel I1 … I16 Omni On (Vertical Lines)

Activate the CONTROL button in order to select the desired MIDI-

Local-Modus with the DOWN/UP buttons or Data Wheel. “Local

Off” is on when the display shows “of” and “Local On” on when

showed “on”. In Local Off Modus all local controllers are set to off.
