To enable or disable a MIDI Master Channel:
1. Hold SET, and turn the SELECT knob to select the MIDI MASTER CHANNEL menu
item and place the cursor on the division name field (GT, SW, CH, etc.).
2. Release SET, and turn the SELECf knob until the desired division is displayed.
3. Hold SET, and turn the SELECT knob to move the cursor to the ON/OFF field.
4. Release SET, and tum the SELECf knob to set the Master Channel status for the selected
division. Turning a division's Master Channel off prevents the organ from sending or
receiving notes or expression on that channel.
MIDI STOP CHANGES
The organ stops may be controlled from MIDI either by System Exclusive messages, or by
Program Changes which activate organ pistons. The System Exclusive method offers the optimum
control over registration, since it does not require the organ pistons to be set up beforehand. This
method is always selected when the organ is turned on. The use of piston Program Changes for stop
control is most useful when controlling a Rodgers organ from a remote MIDI keyboard, or when
controlling a second Rodgers console via MIDI.
The MIDI STOP CHANGE menu item allows the organist to control the transmission and
reception of System Exclusive (SysEx) Stop Control messages and Piston Program Change mes-
sages. The SEND field has four positions:
OFF
Console does not send either SysEx or Program Changes
STP
Console sends only SysEx messages
PST
Console sends only Piston Program Changes
S&P
Console sends both SysEx and Program Changes
The RCV (receive) field has the same four positions:
OFF
Console ignores both SysEx and Program Changes
STP
Console receives only SysEx messages
PST
Console receives only Piston Program Changes
S&P
Console receives both SysEx and Program Changes
Program Changes 1-19 on any Master Channel will activate the organ General Pistons of like
number. Program Change 20 on any Master Channel will activate the organ's General Cancel piston.
Program Changes 21-26 on any Master Channel will activate the divisional pistons for the division
corresponding to that Master Channel.
