Cantorum VI Plus
is equipped with an internal sequencer that can record and reproduce your
performances. The sequencer allows you to record notes played from the keyboard, any action performed
on the panel and through the pedals connected to the [EXPR.] and [SUSTAIN] connectors. MIDI
messages managed by the instrument received from the [MIDI IN] or [USB TO HOST] port are also
recorded (see par. 7.5).
The sequencer allows you to record and save up to 61 songs in the current memory unit, which can then
be retrieved using the keys of the keyboard.
It is possible to store and play songs both in the internal memory of the instrument and in a USB stick
inserted in connector [ ] on the back panel. To select the current memory unit, use the [MEMORY]
button as shown in step 16 of the par. 2.1.
The songs stored on the USB stick are saved as .mid files and named with a number according to the key
pressed on the keyboard at the time of storage (see par. 4.1). Therefore, for example, the song associated
with the first C is named "1.mid", the song associated with the second F is named "18.mid", etc...
The songs are stored in the "organ\songs" folder on the USB stick.
