Keyboard Settings; Midi Settings - Roland JX-08 Owner's Manual

KEYBOARD SETTINGS

[1] T.POS -5–6
Transposes the pitch range of the keyboard in semitone
steps.
[2] UELO
This configures the function that detects the keyboard
velocity.
REAL
The velocity value changes in response to how hard
or softly the keys are played.
1–127
Sets the velocity at a fixed value.
[3] U.CRU
Specifies the keyboard touch.
LIGH
Sets the keyboard to respond with a lighter touch.
Nid
Sets the keyboard to respond with a standard touch.
HEUY
Sets the keyboard to respond with a heavier touch.
[4] SPLt C-–G9
When the split function is on, this sets the position of
the split (the split point) on the keyboard.
All notes on the keyboard at or below the split point
play PART A, and all notes above the split point play
PART B.
When a K-25m is connected, you can hold down the
SPLIT button and press a key to set the split point.
You can also press a step button to select the
parameter items.
The T.POS, UELO and U.CRU settings are available
when a K-25m is being used.

MIDI SETTINGS

Here's how to make MIDI-related settings.
[1] CH 1–16, OFF
Sets the MIDI transmitting/receiving channel for the
system.
This is essentially the SYSTEM CHANNEL where we
send and receive program changes, and have access
to the arpeggiator, triggering sequences from the
keybord, and mode fuctions for the JX-08.
NOTE:
The arpeggiator will not respond to CHA or CHB midi
messages. In order to use the arpeggiator with the
JX-08 for remote playback from an external keyboard
or sequencer, we MUST use the System MIDI channel
and operate in WHOLE, SPLIT, or DUAL mode in order
to make remote use of the arpeggiator.
[2] CH.A 1–16
Sets the MIDI transmitting/receiving channel for
PART A.
Using CH A will treat PART A as its own tone module,
and all of the PART functions are accessible via this
MIDI channel. For additional functions (arpeggiator, etc)
we will have to use the System MIDI channel.
[3] CH.B 1–16
Sets the MIDI transmitting/receiving channel
for PART B.
Using CH B will treat PART B as its own tone module,
and all of the PART functions are accessible via this
MIDI channel. For additional functions (arpeggiator, etc)
we will have to use the System MIDI channel.
[4] R.KEy
This tells the JX-08 where to look for, and listen when
using an external MIDI keyboard, or sequencer.
OFF
Select this when a MIDI keyboard is not connected.
NiDi
Select this when connecting to the MIDI connector.
USB
Select this when connecting to the USB connector.
[5] SynC
This specifies the synchronization signal that this unit's
sequencer follows.
Avto Automatically detects the signal
inputted to the jack.
