Receive an external MIDI clock sync, MIDI notes, MIDI CC controls, or MIDI program
change messages with the 1/8" MIDI in jack. Send MIDI information to an external
instrument, such as MIDI notes to a synthesizer. Control the Organelle's keyboard with a
USB MIDI keyboard, expanding the number of playable notes within your patch.
3. Operating the Organelle by
Itself
As we stated early on and as the configuration ideas have shown, the Organelle is a fully
capable stand-alone instrument. To use the Organelle in this fashion requires
understanding the workings of its internal operating system. By learning the options
provided by the Organelle's software along with the uses of the Selector encoder and the
on-board display, you will be ready to travel and perform with the Organelle alone.
In this chapter, we'll explore where this combination of the Selector and on-board display
can go, and we will also go through the default MIDI operation of the Organelle and how
connected USB MIDI devices interface with the Organelle.
