7.3. MIDI CONTROL CHANGES
CHAPTER 7. MIDI IMPLEMENTATION
Note Off transmission
When recording DR-2 MIDI data in a DAW, you can set
the Note Off Tx parameter ON. With this setting OFF, the DR-2 does not send MIDI
note-off messages, because by default, the DR-2 also doesn’t recognize them.
This can however get very annoying in a DAW, as you’ll only see very extremely
long notes because the DAW expects but doesn’t receive corresponding note-offs after
a note-on. Put the Note Off Tx parameter ON to avoid this.
Note Off recognition
You can turn MIDI Note Off Recognition ON/OFF in the sys-
tem settings menu (default:OFF). When enabled, the DR-2 recognises Note Off mes-
sages and interprets them as breaks that immediately end the note. However, this can
be very annoying when programming a rhythm on a sequencer or DAW, so it’s default
is OFF. But if you want to, you can enable it.
Remark: don’t engage both NoteOffTx and NoteOffRx when recording and playing
back from a DAW. You’ll only hear very short ticks and clicks.
7.3
MIDI control changes
In the controller list in §7.6 you can see the mapping of the instrument parameters to
MIDI control changes. Both reception (CtrlChangeRx) and transmission (CtrlChangeTx)
can be enabled and disabled in the System settings menu. With CtrlChangeTx ON con-
trol changes are sent when you turn a knob on the frontpanel. With CtrlChangeRx ON
the DR-2 responds to incoming control change messages according to the controller
numbers in the controller list below.
7.4
MIDI program changes
Program changes can be used to load patterns and drumsets via MIDI, in combination
with Bank Select (Control Change CC#0). Bank Select 0, Program Change 0-63 loads
Drumsets 1-64. Bank Select 1, Program Change 0-95 loads Patterns 1-96. Reception of
MIDI Program Changes can be disabled in the System Settings menu (ProgChangeRx:
ON/OFF). Also the reception of a bank select message CC#0 is enabled/disabled with
ProgChangeRx, although it is technically a control change.
