HOW TO SELECT SOUNDS
The MVX-S sound generator complies with the General MIDI standards and has been
provided with 128 GM sounds plus 168 variations (total 296 sounds). It operates over 16
Midi Channels and features an 84-note polyphony.
Each sound can be selected by means of Midi Program Change Messages (0-127) and
Bank Select Messages (CC0-CC32) .
To program your MIDIVOX_X accordion please refer to the MIDIVOX _X Owners Manual
and to the enclosed Sound List.
Please keep in mind that “PC” stands for PROGRAM number and “Bnk” for BANK
number.
(e.g. if you want to select the BASSOON accordion sound, once entered the EDIT mode,
dial 0 on the accordion panel and press PROGRAM, then dial 32 and press BANK )
All accordion sounds are grouped in Bank #32.
MIDI INPUT AND MIDI OUTPUTS
Full Midi control of the embedded sound board is possible through the MIDI IN input.
This allows an alternative use of the MVX-S as a General Midi sound generator in
connection with an external Midi master keyboard, computer or Midi accordion.
MIDI OUT #1 and #2 can be used to control other Midi equipment such as sound
generators or rhythm arrangers.
The MIDI OUT #1 outputs all midi messages sent by the accordion, without any alteration.
The MIDI OUT #2 outputs only midi messages pertaining to the Chord and Bass sections,
for use with external automatic arrangers.
