Controlling Presenter with MIDI
Using MIDI Devices
Because the items "Dual Stream Focus" and "Video Mixer Control" have been added to the MIDI
System Settings (p. 88 in the PR-80 Owner's Manual), the screen layout and the names of some items
have changed.
Dual Stream Focus
This lets you select the stream that selects the clip in the Dual Stream mode. If you're manipulating
this control via MIDI, go to "Dual Stream Focus" and set the MIDI message to be used. (Controls are
not accepted via MIDI when this is set to [OFF].)
The stream for the Dual Stream mode is selected using the chosen MIDI message.
Using Other Devices to Control Presenter
The feature known as "V-4 Control" in previous versions is now called "Video Mixer Control" and
also supports other video mixers in addition to the V-4. Along with this, some other features have
been added or changed.
Controlling an Edirol Video Mixer
Using a video mixer from Edirol (such as the V-4 or V-440HD) in combination with the PR-80 lets you
control the video mixer using the PR-80. When you do this, you can take the video input to the video
mixer from the external source and work with it as clips using the PR-80. Additionally, you can use
an external MIDI device to control the video mixer's effect settings and fade the final video output.
1.
Using MIDI cables, connect a USB MIDI interface to the PR-80 and connect the MIDI
interface's MIDI OUT to the video mixer's MIDI IN.
For more information about USB MIDI interfaces, refer to p. 88.
2.
Input the video output from the PR-80 to the video mixer.
3.
Turn on the power to the PR-80 and the video mixer.
When you're making the connection, first turn on the power to the video mixer, then turn on the
PR-80.
4.
Set the Device ID for the video mixer.
For instructions on how to set the Device ID, refer to the owner's manual that came with the video
mixer.

Page 1: Controlling Presenter With Midi
Using a video mixer from Edirol (such as the V-4 or V-440HD) in combination with the PR-80 lets you control the video mixer using the PR-80. When you do this, you can take the video input to the video mixer from the external source and work with it as clips using the PR-80. Additionally, you can use an external MIDI device to control the video mixer's effect settings and fade the final video output. - Page 2 Use "Presenter Connection Input" to set the input channel on the video mixer used to input PR-80 video in Step 2. Go to "Video Mixer Control" and use "VFX1 Control" to set the MIDI message that controls the video mixer's effects.
- Page 3 Latency" and "External => Presenter Latency" settings. The latency (delay) for operations made from the PR-80 may differ from one video mixer to another. If video transitions under control from the PR-80 are corrupt, or if unexpected video is seen during such transitions, then adjust these two values to make video transitions smooth.
- Page 4 When you are connecting to the PR-80 a video mixer that has fewer than eight inputs, such as the V- 4, never drag to the "Clips" list a "MIXER INPUT" item whose number exceeds the number of input channels on the video mixer.
