Dave Smith Instruments PROPHET 08 DESKTOP - Manual (Page 45)

MIDI Implementation
The Prophet '08 receives MIDI data according to the mode controls under
G
LOBAL
. In addition, there is interaction between some of the Program
parameters that determine the overall response of Prophet '08 to MIDI data.
Note: The Poly Chain output has a number of additional MIDI messages that are
sent when Poly Chain is enabled. These are not included in the MIDI summary
below, since they are specific to use in Poly Chain mode only.
Following are the Global parameters that affect response to MIDI:
MIDI Channel: ALL, 1…16 – Selects the MIDI channel to send and receive data,
1 to 16. All receives on any channel.
Poly Chain: Off, Out, In – Use this to link two Prophet '08s to double polyphony
by intelligently processing the keys hit and passing MIDI data through to the
Poly Chain MIDI out jack, where it can be routed to a second Prophet '08.
Local Control: Off, On – Enables or disables the internal connection between
the keyboard and panel controls and the synth electronics.
Clock: see table – Selects the MIDI clock status, and enables External
sequencer triggers, as follows:
Display MIDI Clock Setting
Internal MIDI clock is neither sent nor received
MIDI Out MIDI clock is sent
MIDI In MIDI clock is received
MIDIn/Out MIDI clock is received and transmitted (use
with Poly Chain)
MIDI Parameter Send: NRPN, CC, Off – Changes to the values of the Prophet
'08's front panel controls are transmitted via MIDI as Non-registered Parameter
Number (NRPN) controllers or as Continuous Controllers (CC). Transmission of
parameters can also be turned off.
MIDI Parameter Receive: All, NRPN, CC, Off – Sets the method by which the Prophet
'08 receives parameter changes via MIDI. As with transmission, NRPNs are the preferred method,
though some controllers may only be able to send CCs.
MIDI Program: Off, On – When On, the synth will respond to MIDI program
changes received, and will transmit Program changes to MIDI Out.
MIDI Pressure: Off, On – When On, the synth will respond to MIDI pressure
(aftertouch) received, and will transmit Keyboard Pressure to MIDI Out.
