*1 Sustain

With piano tones and other sounds that decay, the pedal acts as a damper pedal, with sounds being sustained longer when the pedal is depressed. With organ tones and other continuous sounds, notes played on the keyboard continue to sound until the pedal is released. In either case, the sustain effect is also applied to any notes that are played while the pedal is depressed.

*2 Sostenuto

This effect performs the same way as sustain, except that it is applied only to notes that are sounding already when the pedal is depressed. It does not affect notes that are played after the pedal is depressed.

When SUS is set

Pedal depressed

Pedal released

When SoS is set

Messages

There is a wide variety of messages defined under the MIDI stan- dard, and this section details the particular messages that can be sent and received by this keyboard. An asterisk is used to mark messages that affect the entire keyboard. Messages without an asterisk are those that affect only a particular channel.

NOTE ON/OFF

This message sends data when a key is pressed (NOTE ON) or re- leased (NOTE OFF).

A NOTE ON/OFF message include a note number (to indicate note whose key is being pressed or released) and velocity (keyboard pres- sure as a value from 1 to 127). NOTE ON velocity is always used to determine the relative volume of the note. This keyboard does not receive NOTE OFF velocity data.

Whenever you press or release a key on this keyboard, the correspond- ing NOTE ON or NOTE OFF message is sent from the MIDI OUT terminal.
