MIDI: MIDI Setup / General Controls
This page allows you to select a MIDI Setup, convert ordinary
notes to RX Noises, and set global parameters for the MIDI
communication.
Current MIDI Setup
MIDI Setup
MIDI channels can be automatically configured by selecting a
MIDI Setup. Each of them lets you assign the best values to vari-
ous MIDI parameters, to allow an easier connection with a par-
ticular MIDI controller.
A different MIDI Setup may be automatically selected when
entering the Style Play, Song Play or Sequencer modes. To recall
a MIDI Setup for these modes, see “Midi Setup” on page 110 for
the Style Play mode, “Midi Setup” on page 179 for the Song Play
mode, and “Midi Setup” on page 215 for the Sequencer mode.
For detailed information on preloaded MIDI Setup settings, see
“MIDI Setup” on page 319.
After selecting a MIDI Setup, you can apply any changes to each
channel’s settings. To store the changes in memory, select the
Write Global-Midi Setup command in the page menu to save it
to memory (see “Write Global - Midi Setup dialog box” on
page 237).
Hint:
To restore the original MIDI Setups, load the original Fac-
tory data again (available in the supplied Accessory CD, or down-
loadable from
Note to RX Noise
RX Noises are special sounds that make Sounds be more realis-
tic. They are usually located above C7, depending on the Sound.
Enable
When this parameter is turned on, notes received from MIDI, or
performed by one of the internal players, in the RX Noises range,
are recognized and converted to RX Noises. When off, notes are
not recognized.
Note:
This parameter is automatically turned off when turning the
instrument on again.
General Controls
Use these parameters to set MIDI Clock and Local Off.
Clock Send
Use this parameter to turn the clock information on the MIDI
OUT or USB Device port on or off. This parameter is common
to all MIDI Setups.
Note:
In Song Play mode, only the Tempo of Player 1 will be sent to
the MIDI OUT or USB Device port.
Off
The Pa2X cannot send the MIDI Clock signal.
You cannot slave another instrument to the Pa2X,
even when connected to the MIDI OUT or USB
Device port.
On
The Pa2X can send the MIDI Clock signal. You
can slave another instrument to the Pa2X Tempo,
Start/Stop and Play/Stop commands. Connect
the other instrument to the Pa2X MIDI OUT or
USB Device port.
Clock Source
This parameter selects the MIDI Clock source for the Style Play
and Sequencer modes.
Note:
In Song Play mode, the Internal clock is always used.
Note:
The Clock parameter is always set to “Internal” each time
you turn the instrument on.
Internal
Internal, i.e. the clock generated by the Pa2X
Arranger and Player 1 internal metronome.
Ext. MIDI
External from the MIDI IN port. In Style Play or
Sequencer mode, the Pa2X is slaved to an external
device, connected to its MIDI IN port. The Start/
Stop and Play/Stop commands, as well as the
metronome tempo, cannot be selected from the
control panel of the Pa2X. Use the external device
to set the tempo and start or stop the sequencer
or arranger.
Ext. USB
As the above, but referred to the USB Device port.
See “Installing the Korg USB MIDI Driver” on
page 332 for information on how to configure your
computer for MIDI Over USB communication.
Local Control On
The Local parameter turns the keyboard on or off.
Note:
The Local parameter is automatically reactivated each time
you turn the instrument on.
On
When you play the keyboard, MIDI data is sent to
the internal sound generator. If tracks are
assigned to a MIDI OUT channel, data is also
sent to the MIDI OUT or USB Device port.
Off
The keyboard is connected to the MIDI OUT or
USB Device port, but cannot play the internal
sound generator.
This is very useful when working with an external
sequencer, to send notes and various MIDI mes-
sages from the integrated keyboard and control-
lers to the external sequencer, and then let the
sequencer send them back to the sound genera-
tor, without overlapping. See the MIDI chapter.
