playback by the corresponding number of semitones away from middle C.
When one of the patches from 65-128 are selected, notes received by the K4815 will trigger the start
of playback at the beginning of the motion sequence. If you play legato, the notes will be transposed,
but the motion will continue playing through to the end before repeating. If you play staccato, the
motion will restart from the beginning for each note.
MIDI Controller Change
While in X/Y output mode, instead of transmitting MIDI notes, continuous controller messages will be
sent. Controllers 16 and 17 correspond to the X and Y values of the playback ball respectively. The
LARGE/SMALL switch affects the size of the output, and the MAJ/MIN affects the polarity of the
output voltages.
When MIDI controller 64 (damper pedal) is received the current playback direction is reversed just as
with the analog DIR input.
MIDI SYSEX Messages
A series of SYSEX messages are used for software updating and loading new motions, patterns and
scales. Currently this requires software from Kilpatrick Audio and will be sent to owners of the K4815
who request additional or different features or require bug fixes. Please contact Kilpatrick Audio for
more information if you would like to experiment with this feature.
