The number of notes that are needed to be played from the Master
controller before SPILLOVER can occur depends on the
MASTER Page Parameter "7 VOICE
I
ZON E SELECT" setting:
...J
If a 2/4 setting is selected, three or more notes must be played
from the Lower Zone of the Master controller in order for
SPILLOVER to happen from the Lower Split. Five or more
notes must be held on the Upper Zone of the M aster controller
for SPILLOVER to occur from the Upper Split. The reverse
applies to a 4/2 Split. But if a 016 or a 610 voice assignment is
selected, SPILLOVER will
never
occur from the
"O"
Keyboard
Zone, only from the Zone that has the six voices assigned to it.
...J
Spillover will occur from a Zone only � its M I DI Output is turned
ON. Check your SPLIT EDIT Parameters "2 LEFT MIDI
OUTPUT" and "5 RIGHT M I DI OUTPUT" and make sure that
they are turned ON.
Use the following chart to find the SPILLOVER scheme for a particular Split
Patch. The letter "N" refers to the BASIC Channel that the MATRIX-6R is
transmitting on. Remember to set your Slave synthesizer to receive on the
the proper Channel if you want SPILLOVER to happen.

Other Things to Keep in Mind

1 . If the MATRIX-6R is set to Basic M I D I Channel 1 5, the extra notes
are spilled to M I D I Channel 1 .
2. If the MATRIX-6R is set to Basic MIDI Channel 1 6, the extra notes
are spilled to MIDI Channel 2.
These situations apply both to Single Patch Mode and to either
part of a Split
(
Lower or Upper
)
in Split Mode.

ACT SENSE "Active Sense"
Active Sense is a special M I D I function that is basically designed to
prevent a malfunction should the MIDI connection be broken
between the MATRIX-6R and its Master controller, orthe MATRIX-6R
and the second Slave in the system. One of the most common
"malfunctions" that would normally occur if the MIDI connection
between the MATRIX-6R and the Master or other slaves is broken is
