majority of applications. When set to Off , the organ does not respond to Start , Stop and
Continue messages; this configuration is reserved for very specific uses and won’t be
applicable to most users.
To recap the actions of the T787 when Sequencer Update is set to On : When the Start
message is received, the organ sends current stop, expression, program change and bank
values to the sequencer.
When the Stop message is received, the organ restores its expression values based on the
physical position of the shoes, but stores the last expression value from the sequence in its
internal memory. This avoids any potential conflict between the last expression value on the
sequence and the actual position of the shoes (resulting in a sudden change of volume when a
shoe is touched).
When the Continue message is received the stored expression value is restored, ensuring that
the sequence continues to play at the correct volume.
Most hardware sequencers (like the Rodgers PR-300S) transmit the Start, Stop and Continue
values automatically unless you manually disable them. Some software sequencers may need
to have the Start/Stop/Continue transmission enabled from within their MIDI configuration
menus.
