Appendices

Program change / Bank select

Changing the program / bank

Program change [Cn, pp]

(n: channel, pp: program number that selects from up to 128 sounds)

•Programs 000–127 in banks A–H correspond to program changes [Cn, 00]–[Cn, 7F].

Pitch bend

Pitch bend change [En, bb, mm]

(n: channel, bb: lower byte of value, mm: upper byte of value, together indicating a value of 16384 steps where 8192 [bb, mm=00H, 40H] is the center value)

The BX-3 can transmit pitch bend changes. When it receives pitch bend changes, a pitch bend effect will be applied. The range in which pitch bend will occur can be specified by the Global mode Group 3 “MIDI P. Bend Range” parameter.

Control change

[Bn, cc, vv]

(n: channel, cc: control change number, vv: value)

•Control changes can be turned on/off by the Global mode Group 4 “MIDI Rx C. Change” parameter.

To silence all notes

All Note Off (CC#123) [Bn, 7B, 00] (value is 00)

When this message is received, all currently-sounding notes will be turned off (as though all keys were re- leased). However, any decay of the notes will remain.

All Sound Off (CC#120) [Bn, 78, 00] (value is 00)

When this message is received, all sound currently being produced will be silenced. While the All Note Off mes- sage allows the decay of the notes to remain, All Sound Off causes the sound to be silenced immediately.

However, these messages are intended for use in emer- gency situations, and are not used during a performance.

To reset all controllers

Reset All Controllers (CC#121) [Bn, 79, 00] (value is 00)

When this message is received, the values of all currently- operating controllers will be reset.

About system exclusive messages

Since system exclusive messages can be used by each manufacturer as they wish, these messages are used mainly to transmit or receive sound data or editing data for parameters that are specific to a particular device. The system exclusive message format for the BX-3 is [F0, 42, 3n, 5B, ff, ... , F7].

F0: Exclusive status

42: Korg ID

3n: [n=0–F] Global MIDI channel 1–16

5B: BX-3 model ID

ff:Function ID (type of message)

–

F7: End of exclusive

Each BX-3 uses the same model ID, so that exclusive data can be exchanged between different BX-3 units.

To obtain copy of the “MIDI Implementation” which includes MIDI exclusive format information, please contact your Korg distributor.

Universal system exclusive

Some system exclusive messages have officially defined uses; these are called universal system exclusive mes- sages.

Of the universal system exclusive messages, the BX-3 uses the following Inquiry messages.

Inquiry Message Request [F0, 7E, nn, 06, 01, F7] Inquiry Message [F0, 7E, nn, 06, 02, (nine bytes), F7]

When an Inquiry Message Request is received, the BX-3 will transmit an Inquiry Message with content that signifies “I am a Korg BX-3, system version ...”

Transmitting sound settings and other data (Data Dump)

Program and global settings can be transmitted as MIDI exclusive messages. The action of transmitting MIDI exclusive messages to an external device is called Data Dump.

By performing a data dump, you can save sound settings or other types of data on an external device, or change the sounds or settings on another BX-3.

The BX-3 uses the following three types of data dump.

•Dump All Program, Dump Global, or Dump All Prog+Global transmits or receives internal memory data.

When the BX-3 receives one of these data dumps, the data is written directly into internal memory; it is not necessary for you to perform the Write operation.

•Dump Program transmits or receives data for the program in the edit buffer.

When the BX-3 receives one of these data dumps, the data is written into the edit buffer, so if you wish to save it in internal memory you must perform the Write operation. The Write operation can be per- formed on the BX-3 (refer to p.19 “Writing a pro- gram”), or by using a MIDI exclusive Program Write Request.

•In Global mode, a data dump can be performed when the Dump Program, Dump All Program, Dump Global, or Dump All Prog+Global commands are displayed. A data dump will also be transmitted when a dump request is received if the “MIDI Rx Sys Exc” parameter is set to Ena.

Data that is received by Dump Program can be written into internal memory by a Write Request.

If notes “hang” (fail to stop)

If a note refuses to stop sounding, press the [EXIT] key.
