Inquiry message request [F0, 7E, nn, 06, 01, F7]
Inquiry message [F0, 7E, nn, 06, 02, (nine bytes), F7]
When an inquiry message request is received, the PS60 will
respond by transmitting an inquiry message that means "I
am a Korg PS60, with system version ..."
Master volume [F0, 7F, nn, 04, 01, vv, mm, F7]
(vv: lower byte of the value, mm: upper byte of the value,
together indicating 16384 steps)
This message is transmitted if you assign Master Volume as
the function of the foot pedal. This will adjust the overall
volume balance without changing the relative volume bal‐
ance between timbres. When this message is received, the
result will be the same as when the controller is used.
Master balance [F0, 7F, nn, 04, 02, vv, mm, F7]
(vv: lower byte of the value, mm: upper byte of the value,
together indicating 16384 steps, where 8192 is the default
position, and lower values will move the sound toward the
left)
When this is received, the overall panning will be adjusted
without changing the relative panning between timbres.
Master fine tuning [F0, 7F, nn, 04, 03, vv, mm, F7]
(A value of 8192 [mm, vv=40, 00] is center, 4096 [mm, vv=20,
00] is –50 cents, and 12288 [mm, vv=60, 00] is +50 cents.)
When this is received, the "MTune (Master Tune)" parame‐
ter will be set.
Master coarse tuning [F0, 7F, nn, 04, 04, vv, mm, F7]
(Normally only the upper byte mm is used. A value of 8192
[mm, vv=40, 00] is center, 6656 [mm, vv=34, 00] is –12 semi‐
tones, and 9728 [mm, vv=4C, 00] is +12 semitones.)
When this is received, the "Transpose" parameter will be
set.
Transmitting sound settings data (Data
Dump)
Data for programs, and performances can be transmitted as
MIDI System Exclusive messages. The operation of sending
this system exclusive data to an external device is called a
"data dump."
By performing a data dump, you can store the PS60's
sounds and settings on an external device, or rewrite the
sounds and settings of another PS60.
If the "SysEx (System Exclusive)" (page 73) setting is on,
data will also be dumped in response to a Dump Request
message.
When the PS60 receives this data, the data will be written
into the edit buffer. If you want to save the data into internal
memory, you'll have to save by using the Write operation.
This can be done either by executing the Write operation
(See "Saving (Storing/Writing)" on page 25 of the Owner's
manual) on the PS60 itself, Editor Utility, or by a MIDI Sys‐
tem Exclusive program write request, performance write
request or global setting write request.
MIDI applications Messages transmitted and received by the PS60
Editing sounds via SysEx
By using various MIDI System Exclusive data dumps, you
can rewrite all programs or an individual program. By
using parameter change messages, you can edit individual
parameters as follows.
Parameter changes
• In Program Edit mode, all parameters other than the
program name can be edited.
• In Performance Edit mode, parameters other than the
performance name can be edited.
Cautions regarding data dumps and sound editing
• After MIDI System Exclusive data has been received and
processed, a Data Load Completed message will be
transmitted. The control master device must not transmit
the next message until this message is received (or until a
sufficient interval of time has elapsed).
• When you change use parameter changes to edit, the
changes will affect the data in the edit buffer and will not
be stored in internal memory unless you Write, so that
the changes will be lost if you re‐select the program or
performance. The Write operation can be performed by a
MIDI System Exclusive Program Write Request or
Performance Write Request message, in addition to the
usual method of using the PS60's switches or Editor
Utility. For more information, please see "Saving
(Storing/Writing)" on page 25 of the Owner's manual.
If notes are stuck
If a problem has caused notes to continue sounding even
though youʹve stopped playing the keyboard (or stopped
playing via MIDI), you can stop the stuck notes by switch‐
ing modes on the PS60.
