Enabling Midi Control Messages - Yamaha MDF3 Owner's Manual

Enabling MIDI Control Messages

The "MIDI control" function lets you enable or disable the MDF3's transmission and
reception of MIDI realtime system control (Start, Continue, and Stop) messages. The
setting you make here combines with the sync mode setting described on the previ-
ous page to determine how MIDI devices control each other during playback.
1. In JOB mode, select
"05: MIDI control".
05:~MIDI~control
When you press the START/STOP key,
the current MIDI control setting will ap-
pear in the LCD.
MIDI~Control=on
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~å
Note:
Whenever the MDF3's power is turned
on, the MIDI control function will automati-
cally be set to "on".
2. Select the desired setting.
Using the FILE DATA keys, select either
setting.
MIDI~Control=off
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~å
When the MIDI control function is turn
on, the MDF3 will transmit and receive
Start, Continue, and Stop messages. It will
also transmit MIDI clock signals. When
this function is turned off, the MDF3 will
neither transmit nor receive the MIDI
Start, Continue, or Stop messages; nor
will it transmit MIDI clock signals.
3. Exit the function.
Press any mode key (MDR, SEQ, JOB,
or UTIL) to exit the function.
When you next begin recording or play-
back, the MDF3 will use the MIDI con-
trol setting you have selected.
