For this example, set “MMC DevID” to “10.”

2Set the slave D1200 so that it will receive MMC and MTC.

In the [SYSTEM/USB] “Sync” tab page, set “Select MIDI SyncMode” to “MTC Slave.” In the [SYSTEM/USB] “MMC” tab page, set “Select MMC Mode” to “Receive.” Set “MMC DevID” to the same setting as the master (“10”). On the slave D1200, press the [PLAY] key to enter play-ready mode.

If you do not want the slave D1200 to receive mixer control messages, you can either set the master D1200 so that it will not transmit these messages, or set the slave D1200 so that it will not receive these messages

(→ “Using MIDI for mixer control”).

3Press the [PLAY] key on the master D1200.

The slave D1200 will receive time code, and will begin playing as soon as it achieves synchronization with the master D1200.

It may take several seconds for synchronization to be achieved.

Using MIDI for mixer control

In the [SYSTEM/USB] “MIDI” tab page, you can set “Con- trol Change: Trans” or “Recv” to “ON” so that the D1200 will transmit or receive mixer parameters.

Recording the D1200’s mixer control messages

Here’s how D1200 mixer operation data can be recorded on an external MIDI sequencer. Connect the D1200 and MIDI sequencer as follows.

1Make synchronization settings on the D1200 and exter- nal MIDI sequencer.

Set the D1200 to be the master, and the external MIDI sequencer to be the slave. Make settings so that the

MIDI sequencer will synchronize to the MIDI clock or MTC messages transmitted from the D1200. (→ p.102)

2Enable control change transmission from the D1200.

In the [SYSTEM/USB] “MIDI” tab page, turn the “Mixer Control” setting “Control Change: Trans” to “ON.”

3Put the external MIDI sequencer in record-ready mode. The D1200’s mixer control data is transmitted on MIDI channels 1–12, corresponding to tracks 1–12. Make set- tings on your external MIDI device so that it will record all MIDI channels 1–12. (For details, refer to the owner’s manual of your MIDI sequencer.)

For details on the parameters, refer to the MIDI imple- mentation. To obtain a copy of the MIDI implementa- tion, contact your Korg distributor.

4Begin recording.

Press the D1200’s [PLAY] key to begin playback, and the external MIDI sequencer will begin recording in syn- chronization. If you now operate the mixer parameters (faders, pan, EQ etc.), the corresponding control change messages will be transmitted from the D1200 and will be recorded on the external MIDI sequencer.

5Stop the D1200.

When you press the D1200’s [STOP] key to stop play- back, the external MIDI device will also stop recording. The D1200’s mixer parameter operations have now been recorded on the external MIDI device.

Using MIDI to control the D1200’s mixer

Here’s how the mixer control data that was recorded in “Recording the D1200’s mixer control messages” can be transmitted back to the D1200 to control its mixer. Make connections as described in step 1 of “Controlling the D1200 from a MIDI sequencer.”

1Make synchronization settings for the D1200 and the external MIDI sequencer.

Make the settings described in step 1 of “Recording D1200 mixer control data.”

2Enable control change reception by the D1200.

In the [SYSTEM/USB] “MIDI” tab page, set the “Mixer- Control” parameter “Control Change: Recv” to “ON.”

3Put the external MIDI sequencer in play-ready mode.

4Start playback on the D1200.

When you press the D1200’s [PLAY] key to begin play- back, the external MIDI sequencer will begin playing in synchronization. The previously-recorded mixer control data will be transmitted from the MIDI sequencer, and the mixer settings of the D1200 will change.
