Software installation instructions are described in the ‘CMK Configuration Software’ section of the manual. Note: To use the software, the CMK-2 must be connected to a computer via MIDI. If a MIDI port is not available on your computer, a commercial MIDI adapter for the game port, USB port, or parallel port may be used. -
Page 18: Midi Specification
CLASSIC MIDI KEYBOARD CMK-2-1 MIDI SPECIFICATION MIDI (Music Instrument Digital Interface) is a communication system between computer-controlled music instruments and describes all the actions of a musical performance. It was originally developed for music synthesizers but, a few years ago, organ-builders began adding MIDI capabilities to pipe organs. However, as MIDI was not designed for a complex musical instrument such as the organ, its standards are subject to organ-builders preferences. -

The CMK-2 provides an interface for volume controls, expression controls, and pistons. MIDI messages will then be sent through the MIDI out port to the personal computer where Hauptwerk software will translate the MIDI message commands into actions on the organ. -
Page 21: Scpop Tm
SCPOP (not supported on the current version of the CMK-2) Sound Canvas Pipe Organ Project (SCPOP) is a computer program that emulates organ features like stop changes, keyboard coupling, tremolo, assignable memories, temperament changes, and the ability to choose different reverb settings. -

Analog Input Pins There are three analog inputs on the CMK-2 Keyboard. Only two are useable at this time. (see Fig 13) Input 1 is for a standard swell-shoe and input 2 is for an ahlborn archive crescendo pedal. Analog devices must be connected to the analog input pin, a positive voltage (+5V) on pin ‘1’, and ground potential (0V) on pin ‘3’. -
