these pots out by MidiOut. This allows you to initialize your external MIDI devices according to
the preset, i.e you can set up dedicated MIDI output preset for different setups.
Even more, by preset recall, you may send out up to 11 bytes of MIDI information to external
MIDI equipment. These bytes are programmed by submenus from each clock position in Menu 7
(see Chapter
"MIDI Controller Setup"). To use this feature you need rather deep knowledge
of MIDI commands. Hopefully an example of this feature gives an idea to start with. If you are not
familiar with MIDI command system, it is better postpone using these features at this point.
An example. Let us suppose that with selecting a preset, we want to send out a Program Change
message on channel 12 to set the preset number to 11 (counting from one). In hex format this
command includes two bytes: 0xAB and 0x0A. In binary form these are in Clock 1 and Clock 2
positions in the table below, respectively.

To dial in the binary codes, you have to enter the corresponding SubMenu and turn the Encoder
clockwise or counter clockwise, until you reach the particular binary code. Green position means
1 and Dark position means 0. You may enter up to 11 bytes of MIDI commands. If there are less
than 11 bytes of information, the unused bytes have to be set to all ones (0xFF). At the preset
recall, all the MIDI information, if byte not equal to 0xFF, will be sent out by MidiOut, byte by
byte. Of course, only if both MidiControl and MidiOut are turned on. This way you may set up
your external MIDI equipment for every 6Appeal preset.
If you are not familiar with MIDI command system, this feature may be rather complicated to
use; this indicates you probably don't need it. Just be aware that it is there and, if you ever need
it, ask friendly synth enthusiasts and MIDI gurus to get you on the track.

In this mode 6Appeal reads MIDI information from MIDI channels 11 to 16 in a specific way.
From channel 11 every Note On message causes Envelope to start for string 1 and every Note Off
message causes to stop Envelope (start the Release phase of Envelope). The same is true for
string 2 from Midi channel 12 and so on, up to channel 16 for string 6. All other MIDI commands
from these channels are ignored.
