Hardware devices generate electrical signals which are converted to MIDI commands. The Diagram shows
the main MIDI hardware components available on an Organ. Control of Reverberation, Overall Volume and
memory settings are also MIDI related functions although they may not all be implemented on your MIDI
device. Example: Reverberation is not available as a MIDI setting on Makin and Johannus instruments. Note
that MIDI functions not recognized by the receiving MIDI device will be ignored if sent.
15.1. Sequencer MIDI file format
MIDI has different file formats referred to as MIDI 0, MIDI 1 and MIDI 2 used for the following purposes:-
• 0 - Single multichannel track
• 1 - multiple track with separated channels to play at the same time
• 2 - multiple multichannel tracks that play one by one.
The Sequencer Plus creates MIDI 1 files and can play MIDI 0 and MIDI 1.
When recording the Sequencer collects incoming data and stores it in a binary file on the SD card. Using an
program editor it is possible to edit the binary file. Part of a binary file shown below was recorded to show
the stops on a Makin 2-18D Organ.
