User Manual
The organ is equipped with an internal sequencer (digital recorder). The sequencer can record songs
played on the instrument, controls used and MIDI data received through the [MIDI IN] port.
Recordings can then be saved on the USB stick as MIDI files (Standard MIDI file, format 1 to 125 beats
per minute, 384 ticks per quarter note) and played back at any time.
To recall the sequencer press the [SEQUENC.] button beside the display. The screen for selection of the
system’s three operating modes is displayed:
o
PLAY:
playback of the performances saved in the USB pen (par. 8.1).
o
TRANSPOSER:
applies a semitone transposition to the songs played by the sequencer.
o
RECORD:
recording of songs of music (par. 8.2).
o
OVERDUB:
overdub of songs of music (par. 8.3)
8.1 PLAYING BACK A SONGS (PLAY mode)
In the sequencer mode selection screen described above, select the
PLAY
field. The display shows the mid files
stored in the USB pen:
if there are no files, the message “
NO FILES
” will appear.
N.B.
-
To copy files with a computer to a USB drive that has never been used with the organ, it is
necessary to create the folders (described in the par. 7.1) manually. Files must be placed in
the dedicated folder; follow the instructions on the folders and their function.
-
Always use USB pens formatted with FAT or FAT32 file system (no NTFS).
-
The .mid files recorded and/or played by the sequencer are saved to the "songs" folder. The
folder can contain a maximum of 256 files.
-
File names cannot be longer than 31 characters (including the file extension).
-
Transposition set in the Main Page does not have any effect on playback of songs (unlike
recording, where the notes are acquired transposed).
