MIDI Transmission Parameters

Two main parameters must be set in order to transmit
MIDI data:
1—TRANSMIT AVAILABLE/UNAVAILABLE—This
simply turns MIDI KEY NUMBER transmission on or off:
"TRANSMIT AVAIL" = MIDI KEY NUMBER
transmission is ON, "TRANSMIT UNAVAIL" = MIDI
KEY NUMBER transmission is OFF.
2—INSTRUMENT TRANSMISSION CHANNEL—
Each RX15 instrument can be assigned for transmission
on any of the 16 available MIDI channels. Normally, all
instruments will be set to a single channel, and their key
numbers will activate the appropriate notes or other
events in a single MIDI receiving device set to receive
on that channel. In some cases, however, it might be
desirable to transmit different instrument key numbers on
different MIDI channels, triggering notes or other events
in two or more different receiving devices.
These parameters are set in the MIDI OUT programming
mode, which is entered by pressing the MIDI OUT button
while holding down the FUNCTION button. The LCD
panel will respond with "TRANSMIT AVAIL" (default
parameter) indicating that MIDI transmission is ON. MIDI
transmission can be turned off by pressing the –1/NO
button. Each press on the –1/NO button alternates
between the "TRANSMIT AVAIL" and "TRANSMIT
UNAVAIL" settings. To set the displayed parameter,
press the MIDI OUT button. This exits the MIDI OUT
programming mode.
To set the instrument transmission channels, press any
of the instrument buttons after selecting the desired
transmit parameter (do not press MIDI OUT). If, for
example, the RIMSHOT button is pressed, the LCD panel
will respond with "RIM TRNS CH = XX", where "XX" is
the currently set transmission channel for the RIMSHOT
key number. The transmission channel can then be set
from 1 to 16 with the DATA ENTRY control. Other
instruments can be selected and assigned a
transmission channel in succession. Press the MIDI OUT
button to exit the MIDI OUT programming mode.
