MIDI messages transmitted and
received by the CVP-20 шашы
The following kinds of MIDI information (messages) can be trans-
mitted and received by the CVP-20.
* Note and Velocity Data
This information tells the slave instrument to play a certain note
(specified by the MIDI note number) at a certain dynamic con-
trol (specified by the MIDI velocity value). The data is transmit-
ted or received by the Clavinova (depending upon the MIDI
connection) just as it is played.
* Program Change Numbers
This information tells the slave instrument which voice to play.
The Clavinova transmits, when it is the master instrument, a
MIDI program change number between 0 and 23 corresponding
to the voice selected. This causes the corresponding voice num-
ber of the slave instrument to be selected. The Clavinova can also
receive program change data when it is the slave instrument. The
transmission and reception of this information can be turned on
or off, refer to page 18.
Control Change numbers
This is the information for the SOFT/SOSTENUTO and
DAMPER pedals. The information is transmitted when the
Clavinova's pedals are pressed. If the receiving equipment is a
tone generator or another keyboard, it will respond in the same
way as the Clavinova's internal tone generator does when the pe-
dals are pressed. The CVP-20 can also receive and respond to
control change data. The transmission and reception of this in-
formation can be turned on or off, refer to page 18.
MIDI functions m
The CVP-20 is equipped with 10 MIDI functions. These functions

1&2 Selecting MIDI Send and Receive Channels
MIDI allows data to be transmitted and received on 16 discrete
channels over a single MIDI cable. This enables selective control of
instruments and equipment that are connected in series.
Each instrument can be set to a different receive channel so that it
only responds to data coded with the same channel number. For
example, a single MIDI compatible sequence recorder can be con-
nected to two different MIDI compatible instruments or tone
generators. One of the instruments or tone generators can be set to
receive data only on channel 1 while the other is set to receive data
on channel 2. In this situation, the first instrument or tone generator
will only respond to channel 1 data, while the second instrument or
tone generator will respond only to channel 2 data. This allows the
sequence recorder to ''play'' two completely different parts on the
receiving instruments or tone generators.
