Contrast

Display Contrast

Settings: 1 … 8

Sets the contrast of the VL70-m display for optimum visibility. The best setting will depend on your viewing angle and the ambient lighting conditions. A setting of “1” produces the strongest contrast, while a setting of “8” produces the “softest” contrast.

DumpIntrval

MIDI Bulk Dump Interval

Settings: 50, 100, 150, 200, 300

Sets the length of time intervals to be inserted between data blocks during a “Dump Out” operation (page 100). The required interval will depend on the receiving MIDI device. The settings are in milliseconds: i.e. 50 milliseconds, 100 millisec- onds, etc. Try adjusting this parameter if the receiving MIDI device generates an error message while receiving a bulk dump from the VL70-m.

NoteFilter

MIDI Note Filter

Settings: ch01 … ch16, Thru

This parameter can be used to prevent MIDI note on/off messages received on the specified channel from being re-transmitted via the MIDI OUT connector. Select the channel to be filtered out, or “Thru” to allow all data to pass.

When the VL-XG sound module mode is selected and a program change number correspond- ing to a VL70-m voice is received, the “NoteFilter” parameter is automatically set to the channel on which the program change number was received. This does not occur in the VOICE sound module mode.

When the VL70-m MIDI receive channel is changed via the panel controls (pages 34 and 38), the “NoteFilter” parameter is automatically set to the same channel if it is initially set to 01 … 16, but not when it is set to “Thru”. This does not occur when the MIDI receive channel is changed via a MIDI system exclusive message.
