MIDI
The Chord 1 and Chord 2 channels
transmission
should
take
place
over
the
Global
channel
of
the
microARRANGER.
The
MIDI
messages
received
over
a
Global
channel
and
not
over
a
standard
channel
are
affected
by
the
buttons
of
the
KEYBOARD
MODE
section,
as
well
from
the
split
point.
Therefore,
if
the
SPLIT
button
LED
is
lit
up,
the
notes
that
arrive
to
the
microARRANGER
over
this
chan
‐
nel
will
be
divided
by
the
split
point
into
the
Upper
(above
the
split
point)
and
Lower
(below
the
split
point)
parts.
The
notes
that
arrive
to
a
Global
channel
are
used
for
the
chord
recognition
of
the
automatic
accompaniment.
If
the
KEYBOARD
MODE
is
SPLIT,
only
the
notes
below
the
split
point
will
be
used.
These
notes
will
be
combined
with
the
ones
of
the
special
Chord
1
and
Chord
2
channels.
THE CHORD 1 AND CHORD 2 CHANNELS
You
can
set
two
special
Chord
channels
(see
128)
to
send
to
the
microARRANGER
notes
for
the
chord
recognition.
The
notes
will
be
combined
with
the
notes
that
go
through
the
channel
set
as
Global
(Global
notes
are
recognized
only
under
the
split
point,
if
the
SPLIT
LED
is
lit
up).
The
Chord
channels
are
not
affected
by
the
split
point
and
the
KEYBOARD
MODE
section
of
the
control
panel.
All
the
notes
–
both
above
and
below
the
split
point
–
will
be
sent
to
the
chord
recognition.
The
buttons
of
the
CHORD
SCANNING
section
have
a
particular
effect
on
the
Chord
channels:
•
if
you
have
selected
LOWER,
the
chord
recognition
mode
will
be
set
by
the
parameter
in
the
Style
Play
mode
(see
•
if
you
have
selected
UPPER
or
FULL,
the
chord
recognition
mode
will
always
be
Fingered
2
(you
need
to
play
at
least
three
notes
in
order
for
the
chord
to
be
detected).
These
two
channels
are
especially
useful
for
accordion
players
to
assign
a
different
Chord
channel
to
the
chords
and
the
bass
played
with
the
left
hand.
In
this
way,
chords
and
bass
will
participate
to
the
creation
of
chords
for
the
chord
recognition
of
the
automatic
accompaniment.
THE CONTROL CHANNEL
You
can
set
a
MIDI
IN
channel
as
the
Control
channel
(see
128),
to
select
Styles
and
Performance
from
an
external
device.
See
the
Appendix
for
a
list
of
messages
corresponding
to
microARRANGER
internal
data.
MIDI SETUP

channel
of
the
microARRANGER,
the
split
point
and
the
status
of
the
KEYBOARD
