MIDI (F2)

Pressing MIDI (F2) from the Main Utility menu lets you access pages that contains the module's MIDI settings.

INPT (F1)

This page controls the module's MIDI input settings.

1.Press UTILITY to enter the main Utility Menu.

2.Press MIDI (F2) to access the MIDI settings. The first page to appear will be INPT (F1).

3.Use CURSOR UP / DOWN to move through the menu items and VALUE UP / DOWN or the VALUE DIAL to adjust the settings:

Drum Chan: The MIDI channel number over which the drum sounds will be received (01-16 or "OMNI," which sends it over all 16 channels) when played by an external MIDI device.

Acc Chan: The MIDI channel number over which the Accompaniment will be received (01-16 or "OMNI," which sends it over all 16 channels) when played by an external MIDI device.

LocalCont: This "Local Control" setting determines whether the module receives MIDI messages from the triggers or an external source. When set to "ON" (the default), the module's sounds will receive MIDI messages from your connected triggers. Switch this setting to "OFF" when you are using an external MIDI sequencer. (When using an external sequencer, if this setting is "ON," each note will be triggered twice – once in the module and once via the external sequencer. Turning Local Control "OFF" ensures you will hear the triggered note only once.)

EXT (F2)

This page's settings determine how the module responds to external

MIDI controllers.

1.Press UTILITY to enter the main Utility Menu.

2.Press MIDI (F2) to access the MIDI settings.

3.Press EXT (F2) to access the external MIDI settings.

4.Use CURSOR UP / DOWN to move through the menu items and VALUE UP / DOWN or the VALUE DIAL to adjust the settings:

Prog Chng: Determines if the module will recognize Program Change messages from external MIDI sources. When set to "OFF" (the default), the module will ignore Program Change messages. When set to "RECEIVE," Kits can be selected via Program Change messages from external sources.

Clock In: Determines if the module will sync to an external MIDI clock. When set to "OFF" (the default), the module will run off its internal clock. When set to "RECEIVE," the module's clock will sync to the "master" clock of a connected external MIDI source.

OUT (F3)

This page controls the module's MIDI output settings.

1.Press UTILITY to enter the main Utility Menu.

2.Press MIDI (F2) to access the MIDI settings.

3.Press OUT (F3) to access the MIDI output settings.

4.Use CURSOR UP / DOWN to move through the menu items and VALUE UP / DOWN or the VALUE DIAL to adjust the settings:

Prog Chng: Determines if the module will send out Program Change messages to external MIDI devices. When set to "NOT SENT" (the default), the module will not send any Program Change messages. When set to "SENT," the module will send Program Change messages to a connected MIDI device.

Clock Out: Deteremines if the module's internal clock will serve as the "master" clock for a connected MIDI device. When set to "NOT SENT" (the default), the module will not send out any MIDI clock information to a connected device. When set to "SENT," a connected MIDI device will sync to the module's internal clock.

MIDI Thru: When set to "ENABLED" (the default), the module's MIDI OUT functions as a MIDI THRU. In this case, a device connected to the module's MIDI IN can send data through the module to a device connected to the module's MIDI OUT. When set to "OFF," the module's MIDI OUT functions only as a MIDI output for the module itself.
