MIDI parameters for the SONG parts
VIMA JM-8
r
101
LOCAL: Allows you to disconnect the part from the
internal sound source (“OFF”), or to re-establish that
connection (“ON”). If you select “OFF” the SONG part
in question is no longer controlled by the JM-8’s SMF
player.
SHIFT (–48~48): This parameter allows you to trans-
pose the note messages before they are transmitted
to an external MIDI instrument or computer. The
maximum possible transposition is four octaves up
(48) or down (–48). Each step represents a semi-tone.
■
TX EVENT
The TX section provides a number of filters that allow
you to specify whether the messages in question
should be transmitted (ON) or not (OFF).
(1) Press the
[TX¥EVENT]
display button to open the
following pop-up window:
(a) Press the
[ALL]
display button to switch all display
buttons on (the corresponding messages are trans-
mitted).
(b) Press
[NONE]
to switch all display buttons off (none
of the events shown here are transmitted).
(c) Press
[CLOSE]
to return to the page where you
came from.
(2) You can also switch the following display buttons
on/off individually:
●
PROGRAM CHANGE— Program change and bank select
(CC00, CC32) messages. These messages are used to select
sounds and Drum Sets. “Bank Select” messages are control
change messages that allow you to select sound banks (up
to 128).
●
PITCH BENDER— Pitch Bend messages.

MIDI RX section
CHANNEL (1~16): Allows you to assign a MIDI chan-
nel to the selected part. The default settings usually
work best, but you are most welcome to change
them.
Note: Although the RX channel does not have to be the
same as the TX channel, working with different channels
may cause confusion.
SHIFT (–48~48): This parameter allows you to trans-
pose the received note messages before sending
them to the JM-8’s tone generator. The maximum
possible transposition is four octaves up (48) or down
(–48). Each step represents a semi-tone.
LIMIT HIGH/LIMIT LOW (C–1~G9): “LIMIT HIGH” and
“LIMIT LOW” allow you to set the note range to be
received. If not all note messages received on a given
MIDI channel should be played by the selected JM-8
part, narrow down the range.
Note: The LOW LIMIT value cannot be higher than HIGH
LIMIT (and vice versa).
■
RX EVENT
The data filters of the RX section allow you to specify
whether (ON) or not (OFF) the messages in question
should be received.
(1) Press the
[RX¥EVENT]
display button to open the
following pop-up window:
The RX events are the same as the TX events. See
page 101 for details.
Leaving the ‘MIDI EDIT’ page
(1) Press the [EXIT] button repeatedly until it stops
flashing to return to the main page.
Note: If you want to use these settings again at a later
stage, consider saving them to a MIDI Set (see p. 103).
