Parallel Digital Imaging™ Organs Without Personal Memory Card™ (730,735,785,945); Preparing The Organ For Multi-Track Recording - Rodgers PR-300 Owner's Manual

Parallel Digital Imaging™ organs without Personal Memory Card™
(730,735,785,945)
Rodgers PDI™organs are able to use any of the 16 MIDI
channels
to
control MIDI devices such as the PR-300. Because
the PR-300 is set to receive on channels 1-10, however, these
will be the channels used for a Multi-Track Recording.
The sounds of the Rodgers organ can also be sequenced
using the following MIDI channels:
MIDI Channel
12
13
14
15
Division
(2
manual)
Great
Swell
Pedal
Positiv (785 only)
Division (945 only)
Great
Swell
Pedal
Choir
The Rodgers PDITM organs normally send and receive on
these channels (called "Master Channels"). For example, if notes
are pressed on the Great manual, MIDI information is generated
on MIDI channel 12, even if no stops are drawn.
Likewise, if the organ receives MIDI information on these
channels, the corresponding division of the organ will play.
A Multi-Track Recording can use a combination of the PR-
300 and organ stops; the MIDI channel used will determine
which instrument plays.
If you want
to
build a sequence which uses both the PR-300
and a PDITM organ, the organ
part
must be recorded last. The
next example will show you how
to
do this.
Preparing the Organ for Multi-Track Recording
Your Rodgers organ is normally set to perform a single-pass
recording, as is covered earlier in this manual. In order to record
a Multi-Track Sequence, there are a few things which need to be
done to the Rodgers organ before recording can take place.
Please refer to the Owner's Manual or MIDI Phase III
Manual for your particular organ if you're not sure how
to
carry
out the following procedures.
To prepare the organ for Multi-Track recording:
(1) Turn ofT the Master Channels for the Great and
Pedal divisions of the organ.
This tells the organ to only send information for the
MIDI couplers when notes are pressed or the
Great/Pedal expression pedal is moved. This way,
only MIDI information for the PR-300 voices will
be recorded.
