About MIDI
MIDI is an acronym that stands for Musical Instrument Digital Interface, which allows electronic musical
instruments to communicate with each other, by sending and receiving compatible Note, Control Change, Program
Change and various other types of MIDI data, or messages.
The S03 can control a MIDI device by transmitting note related data and various types of controller data. The S03
can be controlled by the incoming MIDI messages which automatically determine tone generator mode, select MIDI
channels, voices and effects, change parameter values, and of course play the voices specified for the various Parts.
Many MIDI messages are expressed in hexadecimal or
binary numbers. Hexadecimal numbers may include
the letter “H” as a suffix. The letter “n” indicates a
certain whole number.
The chart below lists the corresponding decimal
number for each hexadecimal/binary number.
MIDI channels
MIDI performance data is assigned to one of sixteen
MIDI channels. Using these channels, 1 - 16, the
performance 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
transmitting instrument sends MIDI data on a specific
MIDI channel (MIDI Transmit Channel) via a single
MIDI cable to the receiving instrument. If the
receiving instrument’s MIDI channel (MIDI Receive
Channel) matches the Transmit Channel, the receiving
instrument will sound according to the data sent by the
transmitting instrument.
The S03 is a fully multi-timbral tone generator,
allowing you to sound several different instrument
parts simultaneously — from just the S03 — by
assigning a different MIDI channel to each part.
