• Program change and bank select messages are trans-

mitted and received on the global MIDI channel.
Program changes can be turned on/off by the Global
mode Group 4 “MIDI Rx Prg Chng” parameter.

Pitch bend

Pitch bend change [En, bb, mm]

(n: channel, bb: lower byte of value, mm: upper byte
of value, together indicating a value of 16384 steps
where 8192 [bb, mm=00H, 40H] is the center value)

The CX-3 does not transmit pitch bend changes. When
it receives pitch bend changes, a pitch bend effect will
be applied. The range in which pitch bend will occur
can be specified by the Global mode Group 3 “MIDI P.
Bend Range” parameter.

Control change

[Bn, cc, vv]

(n: channel, cc: control change number, vv: value)

• Control changes can be turned on/off by the Global

mode Group 4 “MIDI Rx C. Change” parameter.

To silence all notes

All Note Off (CC#123) [Bn, 7B, 00] (value is 00)

When this message is received, all currently-sounding
notes will be turned off (as though all keys were
released). However, any decay of the notes will
remain.

All Sound Off (CC#120) [Bn, 78, 00] (value is 00)

When this message is received, all sound currently
being produced will be silenced. While the All Note
Off message allows the decay of the notes to remain,
All Sound Off causes the sound to be silenced imme-
diately.

However, these messages are intended for use in
emergency situations, and are not used during a
performance.

To reset all controllers

Reset All Controllers (CC#121) [Bn, 79, 00] (value is 00)

When this message is received, the values of all
currently-operating controllers will be reset.

About system exclusive messages

Since system exclusive messages can be used by each
manufacturer as they wish, these messages are used
mainly to transmit or receive sound data or editing
data for parameters that are specific to a particular
device. The system exclusive message format for the
CX-3 is [F0, 42, 3n, 5B, ff, ... , F7].

F0: Exclusive status
42: Korg ID
3n: [n=0–F] Global MIDI channel 1–16
5B: CX-3 model ID
ff: Function ID (type of message)

F7: End of exclusive

Each CX-3 uses the same model ID, so that exclusive
data can be exchanged between different CX-3 units.

To obtain copy of the “MIDI Implementation” which
includes MIDI exclusive format information, please
contact your Korg distributor.

Universal system exclusive

Some system exclusive messages have officially
defined uses; these are called universal system
exclusive messages.

Of the universal system exclusive messages, the CX-3
uses the following Inquiry messages.

Inquiry Message Request [F0, 7E, nn, 06, 01, F7]
Inquiry Message [F0, 7E, nn, 06, 02, (nine bytes), F7]

When an Inquiry Message Request is received, the
CX-3 will transmit an Inquiry Message with content
that signifies “I am a Korg CX-3, system version ...”

Transmitting sound settings and other data (Data
Dump)

Program and global settings can be transmitted as
MIDI exclusive messages. The action of transmitting
MIDI exclusive messages to an external device is
called Data Dump.

By performing a data dump, you can save sound
settings or other types of data on an external device,
or change the sounds or settings on another CX-3.

The CX-3 uses the following three types of data dump.

• Dump All Program, Dump Global, or Dump All

Prog+Global transmits or receives internal memory
data.
When the CX-3 receives one of these data dumps, the
data is written directly into internal memory; it is not
necessary for you to perform the Write operation.

• Dump Program transmits or receives data for the

program in the edit buffer.
When the CX-3 receives one of these data dumps, the
data is written into the edit buffer, so if you wish to
save it in internal memory you must perform the
Write operation. The Write operation can be per-
formed on the CX-3 (refer to p.15 “Writing a pro-
gram”), or by using a MIDI exclusive Program Write
Request.

• In Global mode, a data dump can be performed when

the Dump Program, Dump All Program, Dump
Global, or Dump All Prog+Global commands are
displayed. A data dump will also be transmitted when
a dump request is received if the “MIDI Rx Sys Exc”
parameter is set to Ena.
Data that is received by Dump Program can be written
into internal memory by a Write Request.

If a note refuses to stop sounding, press the [EXIT]
key.
