Channel of the Mix. If the Channel is selected using the MIDI [¨] and [Æ] buttons,
the word "Edited" will appear next to the Program Number in the display if this
parameter is received. However, if you are viewing the Tune Semitone parameter
in the display (Program Edit Mode, Pitch Function, Page 1, Quad Knob [1]), the
display will not be updated to reflect the new setting. If you go to another Page or
Function and then return to it, the display will now reflect the new setting.
MIDI
Local Off in Program Play Mode
If the Keyboard Mode (Global Edit Mode, Page 2, Quad Knob [4]) is set between "Out
1" and "Out 16", the keyboard will not play the selected Program when in Program
Play Mode. This is essentially the equivalent to what is called "Local Off" mode. This
setting is ideal when you wish to only have the keyboard send out MIDI information
when played, but not play the internal sound(s), while still being able to play the
internal sound(s) externally via MIDI in. The Keyboard Mode setting will determine
which channel the keyboard is transmitting on (Out 1 – Out 16). The MIDI [¨] and [Æ]
buttons still determine on which MIDI channel the S4 will receive on in Program Play
Mode.
If the Keyboard Mode is set to either "Normal" or "CH SOLO", you will be able to play
the selected Program in Program Play Mode just as before.
Receiving and Transmitting Bank Select Messages
The S4 Plus will now respond to MIDI Bank Select messages. Bank Select messages
are transmitted via MIDI controller 0. The value of controller 0 determines which bank
(User, Preset 1–4, Card 1–8) is to be recalled.
For more information, refer to page 115.
Transmitting MIDI Volume and Panning
If the MIDI Program Select parameter is turned on and a Mix is selected, any
Channels that have their MIDI Out parameter (Mix Edit Mode, Range Function, Page
2, Quad Knob [3]) turned on and their Keyboard parameter (Quad Knob [4] of same
Page) turned on will transmit its Volume parameter setting as MIDI controller 7 and its
Pan parameter setting as controller 10.
Receiving Controller Messages
Controller 10 messages will now control the panning parameter of a Program. If in
Mix Play Mode, the Program on the channel the controller 10 message is received on
will be affected. Whenever a controller 10 message changes a Program's panning, it
is not actually changing the "Panning" parameter in the Program or Mix; this is
indicated by the fact that the "EDITED" message does not appear in the display
(unless you have already manually edited something). If another Program or Mix is
selected, that Program's or Mix's panning setting(s) are recalled.
In Mix Play Mode, controller messages received on the individual channels work
differently. Since it is assumed that you will want to set a channel's volume (controller
7) or panning (controller 10) and have it stick, these settings will NOT change when a
different Program is selected on the individual channels of the Mix. This helps to
avoid sudden, unexpected (and unwanted) jumps in volume when new sounds are
recalled.
