•
Two or more
d3m
are in use: In this case the Midi in/outputs of all
d3m
are daisy
chained. Midi out of the first d3m is connected to Midi in of the second, Midi out of the
second d3m is connected to Midi In of the third and so on. The Midi output of the last
d3m in the chain is connected to Midi In of the device to be controlled by the d3m (e.g. a
computer that runs Native Instruments' B4 or Emagic's evb3, or an organ sound
generator) via a suitable Midi cable. The Midi input of the first
d3m
remains unconnected
in this case. Each
d3m
requires a different Midi channel to be able to distinguish the
keyboards (see operation how to assign a Midi channel).
•
Two or more
d3m
are in use in combination with a
d3c
controller: The
d3m
and
d3c
are
daisy chained as described above but the
d3c
has to be the last link in the chain. The
Midi output of the
d3c
is connected to Midi In of the device to be controlled by the d3m
(e.g. a computer that runs Native Instruments' B4 or Emagic's evb3, or an organ sound
generator) via a suitable Midi cable. The Midi input of the first
d3m
remains unconnected.
Even in this case each
d3m
requires a different Midi channel to be able to distinguish the
keyboards (see operation how to assign a Midi channel).
Remark: The Midi input of
d3m
should be used only for connection to another
d3m
module.
The Midi input is not suitable for large amounts of Midi data (e.g. SysEx strings or Midi
messages coming from a computer sequencer) but only for small data rates like the
messages of another
d3
module. In case of large amounts of incoming Midi messages data
loss or delay may occur.
FOOT CONTROL
q
This stereo jack socket can be used to connect a foot controller. Do not connect the foot
controller unless the
d3m
is switched off. The foot controller function is programmable (e.g.
volume, expression). For details please refer to the operation chapter. We recommend the
usage of the foot controller FP5. The foot controller is not included with the d3m and has to
be ordered separately if required. You may use even another foot controller that is connected
in this way:
If you do not want to use a foot controller the socket remains unconnected.
FOOT SWITCH
r
This monophonic jack socket can be used to connect a (single) foot switch. Do not connect
the foot switch unless the
d3m
is switched off. The foot switch function is programmable
(e.g. rotary speakers, sustain). For details please refer to the operation chapter. We
recommend the usage of the foot switch VFP1. The foot switch is not included with the d3m
and has to be ordered separately if required. You may use even another foot switch that
uses a contact that is closed at rest (and opens when operated).
If you do not want to use a foot switch the socket remains unconnected.
