300 V 3.0 Owner's Manual

The 300 contains innovative MIDI features that exemplify Lexicon's commitment
to using the power of MIDI to provide new functions to our users. In the 300 most
of these functions fall into one of four categories:
1. Real-time (Dynamic MIDI ® ) control of as many as ten of the 300's variable
parameters simultaneously. Two Setup patches can run on the channel
specified for System changes, and each machine can have four patches on
a user-designated channel.
2. Automatic selection of a 300 effect via MIDI Program Change messages.
3. Real-time effects automation using MIDI System Exclusive or Non-regis-
tered parameters.
4. Transfer of setups, effects, the Event List and corresponding MIDI table to
a computer, other MIDI-compatible device, or to another 300.
Each of these applications will be discussed in this chapter, but first, let's cover
some typical installations.
All MIDI connections described in this chapter use the MIDI IN, OUT and THRU
connectors located on the rear panel of the 300. As with any MIDI connection,
use only standard MIDI cables, and keep them as short as possible to avoid
possible data errors. Fifteen meters is generally accepted as the maximum
length that should be used to maintain data integrity.
