Connecting other MIDI devices
The following section is a simple explanation of only how to control an external
device.
Selecting a different program
When you switch programs on the SGproX, the program of the external MIDI device will also change.
Selecting a program A1 to D16 will cause a program number 0 to 63 to be transmitted, but the actual sound
that this will select will depend on the receiving device. ( p.62)
Changing the bank
The
〈
BANK
〉
switch of the SGproX does not transmit Bank Select messages.
Banks A, B, C and D are all within the same bank of MIDI messages. ( p.62)
Operate the assignable controllers
Try moving the SGproX’s assignable controllers (AW1/2, AL1 to AL4) while playing notes on the SGproX.
The sound of the MIDI device connected to MIDI OUT will change.
This is because MIDI messages which correspond to the SGproX function specified for each assignable
controller are being transmitted. (In Program mode, with the factory settings)
These settings can be changed in the Global mode

Assignable controllers and MIDI functions
By assigning functions to each of the eight assignable controllers, you can freely control external MIDI
devices.
The functions which can be specified include nearly all of the controllers defined by the MIDI specification,
and sets of frequently-used messages are also provided.
For details refer to the
Controllers / MIDI list ( p.58 and following).
If the controller function is selected from Individual or Set, it will not be possible to control the SGproX. If you wish
to control the SGproX as well as simultaneously transmit MIDI messages, select one of the Internal functions
enclosed in square brackets [ ].
