About MIDI

MIDI stands for Musical Instrument Digital Interface, and is a world-wide standard for exchanging various types of musical data between electronic musical instruments and computers. When MIDI cables are used to connect two or more MIDI devices, perfor- mance data can be exchanged between the devices, even if they were made by different manufacturers.

You can use the MIDI THRU jack to simultaneously control multiple MIDI devices. (This type of connec- tion should be used to connect no more than three devices. If you wish to connect a larger number of MIDI devices, we recommend that you use a MIDI patch bay as shown in the second diagram below.)

The “Convert Position” setting

On the TRITON, the Global P0: Basic tab parameters “Key Transpose,” “Velocity Curve” and “After Touch Curve” allow you to transpose the pitch, adjust the velocity sensitivity, and adjust the after touch sensitiv- ity (p.113 in the Parameter Guide).

The effect that these settings will have on the internal sequencer and on the MIDI data that is transmitted and received will depend on “Convert Position” (Glo- bal P1: MIDI) setting (p.118 in the Parameter Guide).

When controlling an external MIDI tone generator from the TRITON, select “Pre MIDI.” The above- listed settings will affect the MIDI data that is transmitted. These settings will also affect the data that is recorded on the internal sequencer.
