1.3.7 The MC3000 MIDI ports and MIDI potential.
Viewed frontally, the rear panel is structured as follows.
Moving from right to left, we find 2 MIDI In ports, 2 THRU ports and 8 OUT ports, all
consecutively numbered.
The presence of 8 separate MIDI outputs means that data can be transmitted on 128
independent MIDI channels, 16 for each port.
The MC3000 offers much more than a large number of outputs; the instrument is able to
act as a MIDI patch-bay, meaning that it is capable of providing a large number of IN-
OUT setups which can be programmed for every single patch.
A powerful MIDI MONITOR in the display allows the user to monitor the entire flow of data,
in both DEC and HEX formats, on the various ports. The instrument offers the user 48
SYS-EX tables with auto-acquisition function; it will therefore be possible to acquire the
exclusive system codes from the instruments connected to the MC3000, save them inside
the tables and send them as assignment of the individual zone.
1.3.8 The other items on the rear panel
Moving towards the left, we find the trimmer for adjusting the display contrast and 8 inputs
for the pedals, the first 3 of which are defined as SYSTEM PEDALS, which act on the
entire patch zone simultaneously, and the others as ASSIGNABLE PEDALS, which act
only on the zones assigned to them.
Finally, we come to the RS2332 serial port for connection of the mouse, the on-off switch
and the network connection.
