ADDENDUM TO MIDI SPECIFICATION
I Proteus only receives
the MIDI Standard Bulk
tuning dumps. For more
information on the MIDI
Tuning Standard and
Bank Select format,
contact the Interna-
tional MIDI Association.
VARIABLE CHORUS
Proteus firmware starting with version 2.10 features a variable chorus
depth. The range of values is now 0 (Off) through 15, with a value of 7
corresponding to 1 (On) in Proteus/1. The MIDI parameter number is
unchanged.
BULK TUNING DUMP
Proteus/3 and above can now receive MIDI Tuning Standard dumps in
addition to its own SysEx tuning table dumps. Proteus will only transmit
in it's own SysEx tuning format. The MIDI Tuning Standard is as follows:
F0 7E dd 08 01 tt <tuning name (16 ascii)> ... F7
dd= device ID
tt= tuning prog # (ignored)
... = data (xx yy zz) frequency data for one note repeated 128x
xx yy zz = 0xxxxxxx 0abcdefg 0hijklmn
xxxxxxx = semitone abcdefghijklmn = fraction of semitone in .0061 cent
units. Examples: Middle C = 3C 00 00 A440 = 45 00 00
TRANSFER OF PRESETS FROM PROTEUS MODULES
TO THE MASTER PERFORMANCE SYSTEM
Presets may be transferred from the Proteus sound module to the Master
Performance System using the Send MIDI Data function in the Master
menu if the two units have the same sound sets. Parameters on the Master
Performance System (such as effects) which do not exist on the Proteus
modules, will be set to a default value. Presets will be placed into the
matching location on the Master Performance System and will overwrite
presets currently residing there. If there is no RAM location on the Master
Performance System corresponding to that of Proteus, then the preset will
simply not be received. For example, when transferring the RAM bank of
presets 64-127 from Proteus to the Master Performance System, only
presets 100-127 will be received, since locations 64-99 do not exist in RAM
on the Master Performance System. Presets 64-99 must first be moved
above location 99 in order to be transferred. A computer based preset
editor/librarian helps immeasurably in this operation and is highly
recommended. If the Proteus contains sound sets (Orchestral, World,
InVision) which are not contained in the Master Performance System, the
preset will transfer but the instrument will be set to 000 (off).
