MIDI Implementation

Model: VK-8M (Combo Organ)
Date: Dec. 1, 2001
Version: 1.00
1. Receive data
* If the MIDI IN FUNCTION is set to SINGLE KEYBOARD MODE (p. 20), messages input
to MIDI IN will be received as messages for the Upper part, regardless of their channel
number (Omni On).
* When the MIDI IN FUNCTION is set to SEQUENCER MODE (p. 20), MIDI messages
will control each part according to their MIDI channel number (Omni Off). At the factory
settings, each part is set to the following transmit/receive channels.
-----------------------
CONTROL | 1ch
UPPER ORGAN | 1ch
LOWER ORGAN | 3ch
PEDAL ORGAN | 2ch
SPRING SHOCK | 9ch

■Channel Voice Messages
●Note off
Status 2nd byte
8nH kkH
9nH kkH
n = MIDI channel number:
kk = note number:
vv = note off velocity:
* When the MIDI IN FUNCTION is set to SINGLE KEYBOARD MODE (p. 20), the input
to the MIDI IN will be handled as messages for the UPPER PART.
●Note on
Status 2nd byte
9nH kkH
n = MIDI channel number:
kk = note number:
vv = note on velocity:
* When the MIDI IN FUNCTION is set to SINGLE KEYBOARD MODE (p. 20), the input
to the MIDI IN will be handled as messages for the UPPER PART.
●Control Change
❍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 the MIDI IN FUNCTION is set to SINGLE KEYBOARD MODE (p. 20), this has the
same function as an expression pedal connected to the VK-8M's EXPRESSION PEDAL
jack.
❍General Purpose Controller 2 (Controller number 17) (Wheel Brake)
Status 2nd byte
BnH 11H
n = MIDI channel number:
vv = control value:
* When MIDI IN FUNCTION is set to SINGLE KEYBOARD MODE (p. 20), this is received
on the channel specified for CONTROL MIDI CH. (p. 46) (factory setting: channel 1).
* Not received when MIDI GENERAL CONTROLLERS SWITCH (p. 45) is OFF.
❍Hold 1 (Controller number 64)
Status 2nd byte
BnH 40H
n = MIDI channel number:
vv = control value:
❍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.
* When the MIDI IN FUNCTION is set to SINGLE KEYBOARD MODE (p. 20), the input
to the MIDI IN will be handled as messages for the UPPER PART.
* Not received when MIDI SOUND CONTROLLERS SWITCH (p. 45) is OFF.
