Control via MIDI

IDI stands for Musical Instrument Digital Interface, and is a world-wide Mstandard for exchanging various types of musical data between electronic

musical instruments and computers. When MIDI cables are used to con- nect two or more MIDI devices, performance data can be exchanged between the devices, even if they were made by different manufacturers.

ToneLab can use MIDI to communicate in the following ways with another MIDI device. You can:

Operate ToneLab or a connected optional foot controller to switch programs on

an external MIDI device, or switch ToneLab programs from an external MIDI device. “Program change”

Operate a connected optional foot controller to control an external MIDI device,

or use an external MIDI device to control ToneLab’s volume or effects. “Parameter change”

Use Sound Editor to edit parameters. “Parameter change”

Backup (save) and restore (load) ToneLab program data. “Backing up and restoring program data”

NOTE: In order to do the above things, you need to use a MIDI cable to connect ToneLab and your external MIDI device, and set the MIDI channels appropriately.

“Connecting a MIDI device or computer,” “Setting the MIDI channel”

NOTE: When you change the settings described in this section, they will be saved automatically. When you have finished making settings, simply press the TUNER/ CANCEL button (3.7) to return to the mode you were in.

NOTE: If your external MIDI device does not recognize certain types of MIDI mes- sage, those messages cannot be used for control. Check the “MIDI implementation chart” of ToneLab and of your external MIDI device.

CONNECTING A MIDI DEVICE OR COMPUTER

If you want to use a connected foot controller to control an external MIDI device from ToneLab, connect a MIDI cable from ToneLab’s MIDI OUT jack to the MIDI IN jack of your external MIDI device.

If you want to control ToneLab from a MIDI sequencer or other external MIDI device, connect a MIDI cable from your external MIDI device’s MIDI OUT jack to ToneLab’s MIDI IN jack.

When you connect ToneLab with a MIDI sequencer or sound editor, data will nor- mally be sent in both directions, so you will need to connect MIDI cables from ToneLab’s MIDI OUT jack to the external MIDI device’s MIDI IN jack, and from the external MIDI device’s MIDI OUT jack to ToneLab’s MIDI IN jack.
