The first parameter following the trigger number in the lower row of the dis-
play selects the MIDI channel on which the trigger will transmit its MIDI data.
As we mentioned above, all six of the triggers are set to use channel 1 as their
default channel. If you wish, however, you can change this setting so that each
of the triggers will transmit on a different channel. (This will cause the RM50 to
play notes in different rhythm kits in response to signals received from different
triggers.) The RM50 will also transmit MIDI note information on the specified
channels from its MIDI OUT terminal in response to trigger input.
If a trigger is set to play on a channel using the pitched voice channel mode,
the RMS50 will play the voice using the note specified by the second parameter in
this display. If the trigger is set to a channel whose channel mode is set to "off", ] &
the RMS50 will not play any notes; it willmerely transmit the note specified by
the second parameter from its MIDI OUT terminal for use by receiving MIDI
devices.
The remaining two parameters in this display set the gate time and velocity
curve which the trigger uses to generate note off messages and note velocity
information. These settings are described in detail on pages 93 and 94.
Exiting the System Utility The procedure for exiting the System Utility function group is the same as that
Group described above for the Wave RAM Utility group. Press the [EXIT] key once to
return to the Utility mode function group display, or twice to return to the Play
mode display.
