17. SETTINGS MENU
17. SETTINGS MENU
The SETTINGS menu offers settings that affect Tonverk and can also be used to manage Projects.
Press [SETTINGS] to access the SETTINGS menu. Scroll the list by using [UP]/[DOWN] or the LEVEL/
DATA knob. Open a highlighted menu by pressing [YES].
17.1 USB DISK MODE
This option allows you to access Tonverk’s SD card from a computer, enabling the transfer of files between
the device and the computer. This is useful for transferring samples and OS updates.
17.1.1 USING USB DISK MODE
1.	 Connect Tonverk to a computer/phone/tablet using a USB cable attached to one of Tonverk’s USB
ports.
2.	 Select USB DISK MODE and then press [YES].
3.	 In the pop-up window, press [YES], but note that device playback will stop.
4.	 Tonverk should now show up on your computer as a USB device. Click the Tonverk USB device on
your computer to access the contents of the SD card.
5.	 To exit the USB disk mode, you must first safely eject the Tonverk USB device. Please refer to your
computer’s documentation on how to perform this procedure.
6.	 On your device. Press [NO] to exit USB disk mode.
If you delete or move samples (or a folder containing samples) on the SD card, it will affect
all projects that use the deleted or moved samples, and the samples will be missing from
these projects.
17.2 MIDI CONFIG
In this menu, various sub-menus dealing with the MIDI functionality of Tonverk are found.
17.2.1 SYNC
Controls how Tonverk receives and sends MIDI clock and transport commands. Change settings by
using the [LEFT]/[RIGHT] arrow keys or the [YES] key.

17. SETTINGS MENU
CLOCK RECEIVE determines whether Tonverk responds to MIDI clock sent from external devices or not.
CLOCK SEND determines whether Tonverk transmits MIDI clock or not.
TRANSPORT RECEIVE determines whether Tonverk responds to MIDI transport messages sent from
external devices or not.
TRANSPORT SEND determines whether Tonverk transmits MIDI transport messages or not.
PROG CH RECEIVE will, when active, make Tonverk respond to incoming program change messages,
which is useful when wanting to select patterns externally. The MIDI channel that will listen to incom­
ing program change messages is set in the MIDI CHANNELS menu. For more information, please see
“17.2.3 CHANNELS” on page 75.
PROG CH SEND will, when active, send program change messages when patterns are changed. The
MIDI channel that will send program change messages is set in the MIDI CHANNELS menu. For more
information, please see “17.2.3 CHANNELS” on page 75.
17.2.2 PORT CONFIG
Here you find the MIDI port-related settings. Change settings by using the [LEFT]/[RIGHT] arrow keys.
RECEIVE NOTES will, when active, enable playing Tonverk using an external MIDI keyboard.
RECEIVE CC/NRPN will, when active, make it possible to control Tonverk’s parameters from an external
MIDI device sending CC and NRPN data.
INPUT FROM selects the source from which Tonverk will receive MIDI data.
• DISABLED will make Tonverk disregard any incoming MIDI data.
• MIDI will make Tonverk listen only to MIDI data sent to the MIDI IN port.
• USB will make Tonverk listen only to MIDI data sent to the USB port.
• MIDI+USB will make Tonverk listen to MIDI data sent to both the MIDI IN and USB ports.
OUTPUT TO selects the destination to which Tonverk will send MIDI data.
• DISABLED will stop Tonverk from sending out any MIDI data.
• MIDI will make Tonverk send MIDI data to the MIDI OUT port only.
• USB will make Tonverk send MIDI data to the USB port only.
• MIDI+USB will make Tonverk send MIDI data to both the MIDI OUT and USB ports.
17.2.3 CHANNELS
This menu handles the MIDI channel configuration.
AUTO CHANNEL selects the MIDI channel that will give access to the currently active track. If an ex­
ternal MIDI keyboard connected to Tonverk sends MIDI data on this channel, the keyboard will control
the active track. This is particularly useful, for example, when quickly switching between active audio
tracks to play different presets. Tonverk also utilizes the AUTO channel to record MIDI tracks from
external MIDI controllers.

17. SETTINGS MENU
PROGRAM CHG IN CH selects the MIDI channel that will listen for incoming program change mes­
sages. An AUTO setting will use the AUTO channel. Enable Tonverk to respond to program change
messages in the MIDI SYNC menu. For more information, please see “17.2.1 SYNC” on page 74.
PROGRAM CHG OUT CH selects the MIDI channel that will send program change messages when
changing patterns. An AUTO setting will use the AUTO channel. Enable Tonverk to send program
change messages in the MIDI SYNC. For more information, please see “17.2.1 SYNC” on page 74.
TRACKS 1–16 have their own dedicated MIDI channel, which is used to receive or send (by
turning the knobs) parameter data to or from a specific audio track. The MIDI channel num­
ber corresponds to the track number.
•	 The sequencer data is always sent on the MIDI channel specified by the CHAN
parameter on the SRC PARAMETER page for the MIDI SCR machine.
•	 The selected MIDI channel for the Auto channel is only used for the Auto channel, and
the track that uses the same channel does not listen to any MIDI data.
17.3 AUDIO ROUTING
In this menu, you’ll find additional audio routing options for the external audio from the IN A/B inputs and
for audio over USB. The settings made here affects all the patterns in the project.
17.3.1 EXT INPUT GAIN
Sets the gain of the incoming audio from the IN A/B inputs.
17.3.2 EXT AUDIO IN
This parameter lets you select where to route the audio from the IN A/B inputs.
•	 OFF The audio from the IN A/B inputs is turned off
•	 PATTERN The audio routing set by the ROUT parameter on the Mix track’s SRC page in the pat­
tern decides the audio routing.
•	 OUT AB The audio is routed to the A/B outputs.
•	 OUT CD The audio is routed to the C/D outputs.
•	 OUT EF The audio is routed to the E/F outputs.
17.3.3 USB AUDIO IN
This parameter lets you select where to route the external audio over USB.
•	 OFF The audio in over USB is turned off
•	 PATTERN The audio routing set by the ROUT parameter on the Mix track’s SRC page in the pat­
tern decides the audio routing.
•	 OUT AB The audio is routed to the A/B outputs.
•	 OUT CD The audio is routed to the C/D outputs.
•	 OUT EF The audio is routed to the E/F outputs.
The settings you make using the EXT AUDIO IN and USB AUDIO IN parameters apply at
the project level and override any settings made with the ROUT parameter on the Mix
track’s SRC page For more information, please see “4.4.1 ROUTING TRACKS” on page
18. and “15.3 SRC PAGE” on page 69.
