The Sensor Input section configures a single sensor input of the digitizer. The sensor type can be selected as analog or digital, and the signal processing configuration can be visualized in a diagram.
Analog / Digital
Sensors output either analog or digital signals. Analog sensors output a single value that is captured by the digitizer using its analog to digital converter, after which a number of algorithms can be applied to process the sensor value and output it as a MIDI message. Digital sensors convert analog value(s) in the sensor itself and communicate with the digitizer using a synchronous serial digital protocol called I2C, which involves exchanging pulse trains that represent bytes between the sensor and the digitizer, which then can apply a number of algorithms to process the sensor values and output them as MIDI messages.
When selecting Analog, a number of conversion methods can be selected that may be applied in conjunction with processing methods. When selecting Digital from the pull-down menu, a menu next to it is shown to select the virtual input (that represents the digital sensor's parameter) and its configuration. Also, when selecting Digital, a number of sensor presets can be selected, applicable to the corresponding I-CubeX sensors.
