MIDI ([F4] button)
Parameter Value Explanation
MIDI
If you want to send and receive system exclusive
Device ID 17–32 messages, the device ID numbers of both devices
need to be matched.
If this is "ON, " MIDI messages received at the MIDI
Soft Thru OFF, ON IN connector will be retransmitted without change
from the MIDI OUT connector.
Turn this "ON" if you're using an external MIDI
keyboard instead of the JUPITER-50's keyboard.
In this case, the MIDI transmit channel of your
Remote
external MIDI keyboard does not matter. Normally,
Keyboard OFF, ON
this can be left at "OFF. "
Switch
* If you want to control the arpeggiator from an
external MIDI device, turn this "ON. "
USB MIDI
If you're using MIDI via a USB connection, this speci-
fies whether the MIDI messages received at the
USB-MIDI Thru OFF, ON USB port/MIDI IN connector will be retransmitted
without change from the MIDI OUT connector/USB
port (ON) or will not be retransmitted (OFF).
MIDI Channel
Specifies the MIDI receive channel on which
Registration
Registrations can be switched by an external MIDI
Control
1–16, OFF
device. Turn this "OFF" if you don't want to switch
Channel
Registrations from a connected MIDI device.
UPPER Part
Specifies the MIDI receive channel that will play
Channel,
each of the JUPITER-50's Parts (PREC, LOWER,
SOLO Part
1–16 UPPER, SOLO), and the MIDI transmit channel on
Channel,
which each Part will transmit to an external MIDI
PERC/LOWER
device.
Part Channel
Explanation
The transmitted velocity value will
correspond to the force with which you strike
the key.
The transmitted velocity value will be fixed,
regardless of the force with which you strike
the key.
The keyboard will have a lighter-feeling
touch. Since you'll be able to reach fortissimo
(ff ) without having to play as strongly as
with the MEDIUM setting, the keyboard will
feel lighter. This setting makes it easier for
people with reduced finger strength to play
the keyboard.
This is the standard keyboard touch setting.
The key will have a heavier-feeling touch.
Since you'll need to play more strongly than
with the MEDIUM setting in order to reach
fortissimo (ff ), the keyboard will feel heavier.
This setting allows you to use your playing
dynamics to add more expression to your
performances.
This is a fine adjustment to the keyboard
sensitivity that's applied after the Keyboard
Velocity Curve setting. Higher values will
cause a greater velocity value to be transmit-
ted for a key-strike of the same force.

Parameter Value
Sync
This selects the synchronization source used by the
JUPITER-50.
MASTER
Sync Mode
SLAVE
Sync Output OFF, ON
This specifies whether the JUPITER-50 will synchronize to
tempo data from the MIDI IN connector or to tempo data
from the USB connector when the Sync Mode is SLAVE.
Clock Source
MIDI
USB
Explanation
The JUPITER-50 will be the synchronization
master. Choose this setting if you're using the
JUPITER-50 on its own without synchronizing
it to another device, or if you want the tempo
of an external MIDI device to synchronize
with the JUPITER-50.
The JUPITER-50 will be the synchronization
slave. Choose this setting if you want the
JUPITER-50 to synchronize to MIDI clock
messages received from an external device.
If this is ON, MIDI clock messages will be
transmitted to an external MIDI device.
* These messages will not be transmitted if
the Sync Mode is "SLAVE. "
Synchronize to tempo data from the MIDI IN
connector.
Synchronize to tempo data from the USB
COMPUTER port.
