MIDI channels

MIDI messages can be exchanged when the transmit- ting and receiving devices are set to the same MIDI channel. MIDI uses sixteen channels, numbered 1–16. The way in which channels are handled will differ depending on the mode.

Program mode and Sampling mode

•Transmission/reception is performed on the global MIDI channel*.

*The global MIDI channel is the basic channel that the TRITON uses for MIDI transmission/reception, and is set by Global P1: MIDI “MIDI Channel.”

Combination mode

•The global MIDI channel is used to transmit/ receive messages for selecting a combination and turning effects on/off, and to transmit/receive exclusive data.

•The MIDI channel specified for each timbre (in Combination P2: MIDI channel tab) is used to transmit/receive MIDI data for each timbre.

•The MIDI channel specified for each of the insert effects and master effects is used to control dynamic modulation, and to control the pan and send 1/2 after the sound has passed through the insert effects.

•When you operate the keyboard or controllers of the TRITON, messages will be transmitted on the global MIDI channel, and will also be transmitted on the MIDI channel of any timbre whose “Status” is set to EXT or EX2.

•Channel messages will be received if they match the MIDI channel of a timbre whose “Status” is set to INT (☞p.33 in the Parameter Guide “Status” and “MIDI Channel”).

Sequencer mode and Song Play mode

•The global MIDI channel is used to transmit/ receive exclusive data and for messages that switch effects on/off.

•MIDI data of each track is transmitted/received on the MIDI channel specified for each track (in the Sequencer P2: MIDI Channel tab).

•When you operate the keyboard or controllers of the TRITON, messages will be transmitted on the MIDI channel selected by “Track Select.” However, messages will be transmitted only if the track selected by “Track Select” has a “Status” of BTH, EXT, or EX2. (☞p.46 in the Parameter Guide Track Select “MIDI”).

•When the sequencer is played back, musical data of tracks whose “Status” is BTH, EXT, or EX2 will be transmitted on the specified MIDI channels.

•Tracks whose “Status” is INT or BTH will receive channel messages of the matching MIDI channel (☞p.55, 104 in the Parameter Guide “Status” and “MIDI Channel”).

Note on/off

Note-on [9n, kk, vv]

Note-off [8n, kk, vv]

(n: channel, kk: note number, vv: velocity)

When you play a note on the TRITON’s keyboard, it will transmit note-on/off messages. When the arpeg- giator is running, note-on/off messages will be trans- mitted by the arpeggiator. (If Local Control is off, the arpeggiator will not transmit note-on/off data. ☞p.112 “Local Control On settings”)

However, most instruments do not receive or transmit note-off velocity, and neither does the TRITON.

Program Change/Bank Select

Changing the program/bank

Program change [Cn, pp]

(n: channel, pp: program number that allows 128 sounds to be selected)

•Programs 000–127 in banks A, B, C, D, E, and F correspond to program changes [Cn, 00]–[Cn, 7F].

•Programs 001–128 in banks G, g(1), g(2), g(3), g(4), g(5), g(6), g(7), g(8), g(9), and g(d) correspond to program changes [Cn, 00]–[Cn, 7F].

Bank select MSB (CC#0) [Bn, 00, mm]

Bank select LSB (CC#32) [Bn, 20, bb]

(n: channel, mm: bank number upper byte, bb: bank number lower byte)

•The internal banks that correspond to each bank select number will depend on the “Bank Map” setting (Global P0: Preference tab). With the factory settings, this will be GM(2). (☞“Bank Map” on p.115 in the Parameter Guide.)

Simply receiving a Bank Select message will not cause the program or bank to change. The program or bank will actually change when a Program Change message is received.
