of
all,
load
the data
from
the supplied
disk to
the
MKS-100's
internal
memory,
and
listen
to
the
sounds.
One

one
sound,
i.e.
two
sounds on one
disk.
The MKS-100's
internal

ory
can
store
up

two
disk

which
is
four
dif-
ferent
sounds.
Both

The
MIDI
channel
higher
than 17
will
be
igno-
red,
therefore
cannot
receive
message.
The
MIDI-Guitar Converter
is
designed
to
transmit
MIDI
signal to
each
string
separately;
the
MIDI
channel
you
set
(=basic channel)
is
assigned
to
the
1st
string,
that plus
on
to
the
2nd
string,
that plus
two
to
the 3rd
string,
and so
on.
For instance,
if
you
set the
MIDI channel
2,
it
is
assigned
to
the
first
string,
channel
3
to
the
second
string,
channel
4
to
the
third string
and so on up
to
the
channel 7
to
the
sixth
string.

Usually
for loading,
the
Load
Button should
be
pushed
after inserting
the
disk.
However,
if
it
is
inserted
while
"READY"
is
still
shown
in
the
Display
quickly after
the
MKS-100
is
switched
on,
pushing
the
Load
Button
is
not necessary.
During
loading,
the Display
will
respond
with:
Load BASS DRUM
The
MIDI channel you have
set
will
be
retained
in
memory
even
after
the
MKS-100
is
turned
off.
