MIDI Implementation

Model: VK-88 (Combo Organ)
Date: Mar. 1, 2003
Version: 1.00
1. Receive data
* The VK-88 has two MIDI IN connectors: MIDI IN and PEDAL IN. Messages input
through the MIDI IN connector can be used to control specific Parts, according to the
MIDI channel numbers of the MIDI messages. Messages input via the MIDI PEDAL IN
connector are received as messages for the Pedal Part, regardless of the channel number.

PEDAL ORGAN | 2ch
UPPER ORCHESTRAL TONES | 4ch
LOWER ORCHESTRAL TONES | 5ch
PEDAL ORCHESTRAL TONES | 6ch
DRUMS | 10ch

■Channel Voice Messages
●Note off
Status 2nd byte
8nH kkH
9nH kkH
n = MIDI channel number:
kk = note number:
vv = note off velocity:
* Signals input to the MIDI PEDAL IN connector are treated as PEDAL PART messages
●Note on
Status 2nd byte
9nH kkH
n = MIDI channel number:
kk = note number:
vv = note on velocity:
* Signals input to the MIDI PEDAL IN connector are treated as PEDAL PART messages.
●Control Change
❍Modulation (Controller number 1)
Status 2nd byte
BnH 01H
n = MIDI channel number:
vv = modulation depth:
* Received only for the Orchestral Tones Part.
❍Data Entry (Controller Number 6, 38)
Status 2nd byte
BnH 06H
BnH 26H
n = MIDI channel number:
mm,ll = the value of the parameter specified by RPN/NRPN
mm = upper byte (MSB), ll = lower byte (LSB)
❍Volume (Controller number 7)
Status 2nd byte
BnH 07H
n = MIDI channel number:
vv = volume:
* Received only for the Orchestral Tones Part.
❍Panpot (Controller number 10)
Status 2nd byte
BnH 0AH
n = MIDI channel number:
vv = panpot:
* Received only for the Orchestral Tones Part.

❍Expression (Controller number 11)
Status 2nd byte
BnH 0BH
n = MIDI channel number:
vv = expression:
* If you want to control all of the Organ Parts, transmit data on the channel specified by
the CONTROL MIDI CH. setting (factory setting: channel 1). It is not possible to
separately control each part of the Organ Part.
* When inputting via the MIDI PEDAL IN connector, this functions the same as an
expression pedal connected to the VK-88's EXPRESSION PEDAL jack.
❍ General Purpose Controller 1 (Controller number 16)
(Orchestral Tones glide)
Status 2nd byte
BnH 10H
n = MIDI channel number:
vv = control value:
* Received only for the Orchestral Tones Part.
* Not received when MIDI GENERAL CONTROLLERS SWITCH (p. 76) is OFF.
❍General Purpose Controller 2 (Controller number 17) (Wheel Brake)
Status 2nd byte
BnH 11H
n = MIDI channel number:
vv = control value:
* When signals are received through the MIDI IN connector, reception is over the channel
specified in CONTROL MIDI CH. (p. 77) (factory setting: Channel 1).
* Not received by the Orchestral Tones part.
* Not received when MIDI GENERAL CONTROLLERS SWITCH (p. 76) is OFF.
❍Hold 1 (Controller number 64)
Status 2nd byte
BnH 40H
n = MIDI channel number:
vv = control value:
* When inputting via the MIDI PEDAL IN connector, this functions the same as an hold
pedal connected to the VK-88's HOLD PEDAL jack.
❍Sound Controller 1-9 (Controller number 70-78) (Harmonic Bars)
Status 2nd byte
BnH ccH
n = MIDI channel number:
cc = control change number:
vv = control value:
* Receives harmonic bar values.
* Not received by the Orchestral Tones part.
* Messages input through the MIDI IN connector can be used to control specific Parts,
according to the MIDI channel numbers of the MIDI messages. Messages input via the
MIDI PEDAL IN connector are received as messages for the Pedal Part, regardless of the
channel number.
* Not received when MIDI SOUND CONTROLLERS SWITCH (p. 76) is OFF.
