OCTAVE TRANSPOSER:
transposes the notes transmitted by the [MIDI OUT] port in octaves.

Otherwise, press [EXIT] to exit the MIDI menu and return to display of the MIDI&UTILITY
menu.
SELECTING THE CHANNELS
The Prestige is able to transmit MIDI messages on two channels, called A and B, simultaneously
for each section of the organ. This means that even if just one manual is played, the MIDI notes can
be transmitted on two separate channels, offering the considerable advantage that two mono-voice
sound modules, or two voices in a multi-voice expander, connected to the [MIDI OUT] port can be
played simultaneously.
Naturally, the same applies to all MIDI channel messages envisaged by the MIDI protocol (Note,
Control Change and Program Change).
The [MIDI TO] buttons in the central control unit activate or deactivate
transmission of the MIDI note messages on the channels assigned to the
manuals and the pedal board.
Operation of the MIDI TO buttons is described in point 4 chap. 2.
However, it is important to remember that the MIDI TO buttons only
control transmission of MIDI notes, so even if the MIDI TO buttons are
off, all the other MIDI messages are still transmitted.
To set the MIDI A and B transmission channels, select the CHANNELS field in the MIDI submenu:
