MIDI Connections —————————————————————————
Although the QY22 can be played and programmed from the built-in micro
keyboard, it can also be connected to an external keyboard or computer for added
benefits. An external MIDI keyboard connected to the MIDI IN connector pro-
vides the added advantages of standard keyboard size and key velocity sensitivity
(if your keyboard has a velocity-sensitive keyboard). Connected to a computer
with sequencing software, the QY22’s high quality Voices and Multi-timbral
capabilities can easily expand your home studio setup. Connect the MIDI OUT
connector of the keyboard, or other control device, to the MIDI IN connector of
the QY22, and make sure that your keyboard is set to transmit on the appropriate
MIDI channel. The QY22 MIDI assignments are as follows:
MIDI Channel Voice
1 ........................ Sequencer track TR1
2 ........................ Sequencer track TR2
3 ........................ Sequencer track TR3
4 ........................ Sequencer track TR4
5 ........................ Accompaniment track C1 (Chord 1)
6 ........................ Accompaniment track C2 (Chord 2)
7 ........................ Accompaniment track Ba (Bass)
10 ...................... Accompaniment track Dr (Drums)
This simply means that if your keyboard transmits on MIDI channel 1, it will con-
trol the QY22 voice that is currently assigned to sequencer track 1, and so on. See
page 38 for instructions on how to assign different voices to the SONG mode tracks.
DETAIL
Data received on MIDI channels other than those listed above also produce sound,
according to the received MIDI program change messages (see the “MIDI Data
Format” booklet). Also, if the QY22 is to be used as a General MIDI tone generator,
the MIDI Ctl (MIDI Control) parameter should be set to “Off” (See page 160)
