DocumentDocumentAR2/ATX4 MIDI Settings Manual MIDI Settings MIDI Overview The term MIDI is an acronym for Musical Instrument Digital Interface, an international standard for connecting musical instruments, computers, and other devices to allow the exchange of performance data. MIDI Terminals MIDI terminal MIDI IN MIDI OUT Function Receiving note, program change, and other data. Sending note, program change, and other data. MIDI channels MIDI uses channels to exchange data back and forth between MIDI devices. There are receive (MIDI IN) and transmit (MIDI OUT) channels. Most musical instruments or devices with MIDI functions are equipped with both MIDI IN and OUT jacks and are capable of transmitting and receiving data via MIDI. The receive channels are used to receive data from another MIDI device, and the transmit channels are used to transmit data to another MIDI device. The illustration below shows three musical instruments, connected together using MIDI. Transmitting instrument a Receiving instrument b Receiving instrument c Transmitting instrument a sends transmit channel and keyboard information to receiving instruments b/c. The information arrives at the receiving instruments b/c. Receiving instruments b/c will respond to MIDI data that is sent if their receive channel is the same as the transmit channel of the transmitting instrument a. If the channels do not match, the receiving instruments b/c will not respond to any data that is sent. For both receiving and transmitting, channels 1-16 can be used. Recording/playing with a sequencer When connected to a sequencer (or a computer running MIDI sequencing software), the AR2/ATX4 hybrid piano can be used to record and playback multi-track songs, with separate sounds playing simultaneously on each channel. Sequencer 1 AR2/ATX4 MIDI Settings Manual MIDI Settings MIDI Functions The AR2/ATX4 hybrid piano supports the following MIDI functions: Transmit/receive note information Transmit/receive note information to/from a MIDI-connected musical instrument or device. Transmit/receive program change information Transmit/receive program change data to/from a MIDIconnected musical instrument or device. Transmit/receive channel settings Specify transmit/receive channels within the range of 1 to 16. Transmit/receive pedal data Transmit/receive sustain, sostenuto, and soft pedal data to/ from a MIDI-connected musical instrument or device. Receive volume data Receive MIDI volume data sent from a MIDI-connected musical instrument or device. Multi-timbral mode setting Receive multiple channel MIDI data from a MIDI-connected musical instrument or device. Ref. Please refer to the "MIDI Implementation Chart" on page 15 for further information regarding the MIDI capabilities of the AR2/ATX4 hybrid piano. Entering the MIDI Settings menu Tap the button in the top right corner of the screen to open the Menu. Tap Tap MIDI to enter the MIDI category. Tap 2 AR2/ATX4 MIDI Settings Manual MIDI Settings 1 MIDI Channel The MIDI Channel setting allows the transmit/receive channel to be specified. The selected channel will function as both the transmit and receive channel (separate transmit/receive channels cannot be specified). Changing the MIDI Channel In the Play MIDI Channel area, tap the number buttons to select the transmit/receive MIDI channel. The MIDI channel can be set from 1 to 16. Tap Omni mode When the AR2/ATX4 hybrid piano is turned on, the instrument is automatically set to "omni mode on", allowing MIDI information to be received on all MIDI channels (1-16). When the MIDI Channel setting is used to specify a transmit/receive channel, the instrument will be set to "omni mode off". Multi-timbral mode and Split/Dual modes Using Split mode with Multi-timbral mode enabled Notes played in the lower section of the keyboard will be transmitted on the channel that is 1 channel higher than the specified channel. For example, if the MIDI channel is set to 3, notes played in the lower section of the keyboard will be transmitted on channel 4. Using Dual mode with Multi-timbral mode enabled Notes played will be transmitted on two channels: the specified channel and the channel that is 1 channel higher. For example, if the MIDI channel is set to 3, notes played on the keyboard will be transmitted on channels 3 and 4. * If the specified MIDI channel is 16, the lower section / layered part will be transmitted on channel 1. 3 AR2/ATX4 MIDI Settings Manual MIDI Settings 2 Transmit Program Change Numbers The Transmit Program Change Numbers setting determines whether the AR2/ATX4 hybrid piano will transmit program change information via MIDI when sounds are selected. Transmit Program Change Numbers setting Transmit PGM# On (default) On Off Multi-timbral setting Off, On1 On2 Off Ref. "Program Change Number List" P. 7. Effect of selecting sounds Sound tab selections will send PGM# shown in the left column*. Sound tab selections will send PGM# shown in the right column*. Program Change information will not be transmitted via MIDI. Changing the Transmit Program Change Numbers setting In the Send Program Change area, tap the [On/Off ] button to turn the function on/off. Tap 4 AR2/ATX4 MIDI Settings Manual MIDI Settings 3 Local Control The Local Control setting determines whether the instrument will play an internal sound when the keys are pressed. This setting may be useful when using the AR2/ATX4 hybrid piano to control an external MIDI device that is connected to the instrument's amplifier/speakers. Local Control setting Local Control Off On (default) Description The instrument will transmit information to an external MIDI device only. The instrument will play an internal sound and transmit information to an external MIDI device. Changing the Local Control setting In the Local On/Off area, tap the [On/Off ] button to turn the function on/off. Tap 5 AR2/ATX4 MIDI Settings Manual MIDI Settings 4 Multi-timbral Mode The Multi-timbral Mode setting determines whether or not the AR2/ATX4 hybrid piano is able to receive MIDI information on more than one MIDI channel simultaneously. This allows the instrument to play back multi-track, multi-timbral performance data sent from an external MIDI device. Multi-timbral Mode setting Multi-timbral Mode Off (default) On1 On2 Selected sound The sound shown in the left column is selected*. The sound shown in the left column is selected*. The sound shown in the right column is selected*. Ref. "Program Change Number List" P. 7. Changing the Multi-timbral Mode setting In the Multi Timbral Mode area, tap the buttons to select On1, On2, or Off. CHECK Multi Timbral Mode will not be displayed when the "SK-EX Rendering" piano sound variation is selected. Tap Tap 5 Channel On/Off The Channel On/Off setting determines which MIDI channels (1~16) are activated to receive MIDI information when Multi-timbral mode is enabled. Changing the Channel On/Off setting In the Channel On/Off area, tap the number buttons to turn the MIDI channel on/off.
