What is MIDI?

n

The performance data of all Songs and Styles is handled as MIDI 
data.

MIDI Channels

MIDI performance data is assigned to one of sixteen 
MIDI channels. Using these channels, 1–16, the perfor-
mance data for sixteen different instrument parts can be 
simultaneously sent over one MIDI cable.

Think of the MIDI channels as TV channels. Each TV 
station transmits its broadcasts over a specific channel. 
Your home TV set receives many different programs 
simultaneously from several TV stations and you select 
the appropriate channel to watch the desired program.

MIDI operates on the same basic principle. The trans-
mitting instrument sends MIDI data on a specific MIDI 
channel (MIDI Transmit Channel) via a single MIDI 
cable to the receiving instrument. If the receiving instru-
ment’s MIDI channel (MIDI Receive Channel) matches 
the Transmit Channel, the receiving instrument will 
sound according to the data sent by the transmitting 
instrument.

n

The Clavinova’s keyboard and internal tone generator are also 
connected by MIDI. 

 LOCAL CONTROL (

page 198

)

For example, several parts or channels can be transmit-
ted simultaneously, including the Style data (as shown 
below). 

Example: Recording a performance with the auto accompa-
niment (Style playback) sound of the Clavinova to an exter-
nal sequencer

As you can see, it is essential to determine which data is 
to be sent over which MIDI channel when transmitting 
MIDI data (page 198).
The Clavinova also allows you to determine how the 
received data is played back (page 199).

System Messages

This is data that is used in common by the entire MIDI 
system. These include System Exclusive messages for 
transferring data unique to each instrument manufac-
turer and Realtime messages for controlling the MIDI 
device.

The messages transmitted/received by the Clavinova are 
shown in the MIDI Data Format and MIDI Implementa-
tion Chart in the separate Data List.

Message Name

Clavinova Operation/Panel Setting

Note ON/OFF

Messages which are generated when 
the keyboard is played. Each mes-
sage includes a specific note num-
ber which corresponds to the key 
which is pressed, plus a velocity 
value based on how hard the key is 
played.
