SCPOP
TM
(not supported on the current version of the CMK-2)
Sound Canvas Pipe Organ Project (SCPOP) is a computer program that emulates organ features like stop changes,
keyboard coupling, tremolo, assignable memories, temperament changes, and the ability to choose different reverb
settings. All of the features can be accessed using the computer keyboard’s keys like a true organ console.

SCPOP requires a Roland Sound Canvas MIDI Expander module and is only compatible with Roland hardware
containing the ‘Sound Canvas’ label
[6] . The messages used to control SCPOP can be found in Appendix E.
MIDI Hardware Specification
[1]
The only MIDI connector approved by the MIDI Manufacturers Association is a 5-pin 180º DIN connector. There are
other ways of connecting devices to send MIDI messages but, it is easier to have compatibility between different MIDI
devices if there is a standard connector. In connecting a MIDI device to a personal computer, the simplest way is
through the MIDI ports of a computer (MIDI connectors are uni-directional from the ‘OUT’ connector to the ‘IN’
connector). Due to space limitations of computer circuit boards, most computers are not equipped with a MIDI port.
Thus, adapters must be used which connect the MIDI device to another port. The most common port is the computer’s
game port which is found on most soundcards. Adapters are also available for the serial port, parallel port, and USB
port.
A schematic of the 5-pin DIN connector typical interface is shown below:
