MIDI Channel Editing
Enter the editing mode by pressing the 2ND button so that the 2ND
LED lights while in any access mode. Now press the EDIT FUNCTION
SELECT "
à" button twice or until "MIDI Channels" scrolls across the
display. Allow the scrolling to finish to enter the MIDI channel edit mode.
Once the scrolling has finished "S1CH" (SET1 channel) will appear. The
MIDI Mate™ is capable of sending out six different sets of patch changes on
six different MIDI channels. Assign the MIDI channel to the same channel as
the MIDI devices you wish the first set of patch changes to control.
The MIDI channel may be changed by pressing the BANK (ADJUST)
"
á" or "â" buttons. These buttons may be held down to allow the user to
scroll through all the possible MIDI channels. The available MIDI channels
for SET1 are 1-16 or OFF. Once SET1's MIDI channel is assigned, press
the EDIT FUNCTION SELECT "
à" button to select the MIDI channel you
wish to send SET2's patch changes on. Again, the BANK (ADJUST) "
á"
and "
â" buttons allow the user to scroll through the available choices to
assign SET2's MIDI channel to. The possible choices for SET2's MIDI
channel are 1- 16 or off. The MIDI channel for any set can be turned off to
suspend transmission of that set's patch changes.
Once MIDI channels are chosen for all the sets, press the EDIT
FUNCTION SELECT "
à" button and "B5CH" ("Button 5 MIDI Controller
Channel") will be displayed. This is where you choose the MIDI channel
that you wish the MIDI on/off control change commands for button 5 to be
sent on. Set this MIDI channel to the same MIDI channel as the MIDI
devices you wish to control via MIDI on/off control change commands from
button 5. If you don't want to send MIDI on/off control change commands set
the corresponding MIDI Controller Channel to "OFF". By repeatedly
pressing the EDIT FUNCTION SELECT "
à" button, the user can assign the
MIDI channel you wish the MIDI continuous controller (pedal) to operate on
(abbreviated as "PEDC").
There are a total of 12 MIDI channels the MIDI Mate™ can operate
on (all at the same time): 6 patch change channels, 5 on/off controller
channels, and 1 continuous controller channel.
