MIDI Mode
Press the MIDI mode button to enter MIDI mode. Here you’ll configure the K2500’s response to
incoming MIDI messages, as well as customize those that the K2500 sends to other MIDI
devices in your system. MIDI mode is also where you choose the Control Setup, which sets the
controller behavior for your programs.
When you enter MIDI mode, you’ll see one of the three available MIDI mode pages. When you
exit MIDI mode, the K2500 remembers which page you were on. The next time you select MIDI
mode, that page appears.
The Transmit (XMIT) Page
Note:
a number of parameters that were on the MIDI XMIT page in pre-V2 versions of the
K2500 software are now handled from with Setup mode. Refer to Chapter 7 for complete
details on the new Setup mode features.
Press the XMIT soft button, and the MIDI XMIT page appears. Use these parameters to control
how the K2500 sends MIDI information to its MIDI Out port. These settings will affect the
K2500’s response to your MIDI controller (like Mod Wheel messages, etc.). It also affects the
responses of other MIDI devices receiving MIDI from the K2500, when the Local Keyboard
Channel parameter is set to match the transmission channel of your MIDI controller.
It’s important to remember that many of the settings of the XMIT page are in effect only when a
program
is selected, either in Program mode or in Quick Access mode. If a
setup
is selected, in
Setup mode or in Quick Access mode, the setup’s MIDI settings override the corresponding
settings on the XMIT page. The XMIT page looks like this:
