EPS-16 PLUS Musician's Manual
Section 10 — Sequencer Applications
• You should now be able to play the drum machine from the EPS-16 PLUS
sequence information. You can then record a track on the EPS-16 PLUS, from
the MIDI keyboard connected to the EPS-16 PLUS, which will play on the
drum machine — just as if you were sequencing an external synthesizer. The
advantage of this approach is that some drum machines respond better to
velocity when played from MIDI than when played from their own front panels.
Thus you may get more dynamic range out of your drum machine if you use
this approach. The disadvantage is that you use up EPS-16 PLUS sequencer
memory to sequence the drum machine.
Using the EPS-16 PLUS with a MIDI Guitar Controller
The EPS-16 PLUS is an ideal voice module to use with any MIDI guitar
controller which is capable of sending in MONO mode. MONO mode allows a
guitar controller to send the notes played on each string on a different MIDI
channel. This has the advantage of letting each string send pitch bends
independently, which is the only way to truly recreate guitar technique on a
synthesizer.
Some earlier guitar controllers do not support MONO mode. You will have to
consult the manual of your particular model to see if it does. If you have a guitar
controller which only sends in POLY mode (i.e. send all six strings on the same
MIDI channel) you should use the EPS-16 PLUS in POLY mode, or OMNI
mode.
For MIDI guitar controllers which do support MONO mode, you will want to put
the EPS-16 PLUS in one of the two versions of MONO mode which it
implements. In MONO mode (A or B), the EPS-16 PLUS receives on eight
consecutive MIDI channels with only one voice assigned to each MIDI channel.
• MONO A is the mode you will probably use most often. This is the mode to
use when you want to play the same sound on all the strings of your guitar
controller. In MONO A, all eight MIDI channels are routed to play whatever
Instrument•Track(s) are selected or stacked on the front panel. In other words,
it behaves like POLY or OMNI modes except that it is receiving
monophonically on multiple MIDI channels.
• MONO B is the mode to use if you want to be able to play a different sound on
each string of your guitar controller. In MONO B, each Instrument•Track
receives of a different MIDI channel. It behaves like MULTI mode except that
each incoming MIDI channel is assigned only one voice.
