Controlling An External Midi Sequencer - PIONEER DJ DJM-V10 Instruction Manual

Controlling an external MIDI sequencer

You can synchronize an external MIDI sequencer with the tempo (BPM) of the track on the
channel that is selected for adding BEAT FX with the [AUTO] or [QUANTIZE] setting.
• The tempo (BPM) of the track is sent as a MIDI timing clock (output range: 40 to 250 BPM).
• The MIDI timing clock (BPM) is sent even when you have set the BPM manually.
• External MIDI sequencers that do not support the MIDI timing clock (BPM) cannot be
synchronized.
• You cannot use tracks if their BPM cannot be detected for the synchronization.
• The accuracy of the MIDI timing clock is improved when a DJ player that supports the
Quantize function is connected to the unit and [QUANTIZE] is turned on.
1 Connect the [MIDI OUT] terminal on the unit and the MIDI IN
terminal on an external MIDI sequencer with a MIDI cable
(available separately).
2 Set slave synchronization mode on the external MIDI
sequencer.
3 Press the [MIDI START/STOP (WAKE UP)] button to send the
MIDI start message.
4 Press the [MIDI ON] button to turn on MIDI.
The sending of MIDI messages starts.
• Press the [MIDI ON] button again to turn off MIDI and stop sending MIDI messages.
• The MIDI timing clock (BPM) is sent even when the [MIDI ON] button is switched off.
• Press the [MIDI START/STOP (WAKE UP)] button to send the MIDI start and stop
messages alternately. The messages are sent even when the [MIDI ON] button is switched
off.
