The selection procedure is cyclic, therefore, pressing Data + at the
channel 16 setting (or Data – at channel 1) selects the OFF setting; this
disables the instrument for MIDI transmission and reception:
The last MIDI Channel selected is memorized, even after turning the
instrument off.
MIDI Mode
Move down to the next function (Midi Mode) with the Cursor Down button.
This function provides two different modes of operation for the MIDI
interface: Common Channel or Dual channel.
Common Channel
The Common Channel setting for the Midi Mode function is selected by
default:
With this setting the RP220 receives and sends Midi data on a single
channel only (set on the previous page), regardless of the current
keyboard mode of the Preset (single, split, layer). The Common Mode
is best used when you connect the RP220 to an expander. In this case,
changing the Presets will send Program Change messages from 1 to 64
to the expander, while changing the User Presets will send Program
Change messages from 65 to 127, allowing you, therefore, to change the
sounds of the external generator from the RP220.
A Program Change message received by RP220 on the Common Chan-
nel will not change one of the individual sound programs of a Preset.
Instead, it will be interpreted as a Preset Change message.
Dual Channel
Pressing the DATA + or – button selects the second MIDI Mode function,
Dual Channel:
The Dual channel mode allows RP220 to transmit and receive Midi data
across to separate channels, one for the main section, the other for the
secondary section (Layer or Split) of a Preset.
