MIDI Note Output from the Arpeggiator and Sequencer
The Trigon-6’s arpeggiator and sequencer can output MIDI note
numbers. Any notes that you hold on the Trigon-6 keyboard will be
arpeggiated according to the current settings of the arpeggiator and
output over MIDI (or USB) as MIDI notes. Similarly, any notes output by
the sequencer will be output over MIDI (or USB) as MIDI notes. You can
use this feature to drive other MIDI-equipped devices such as synthesiz-
ers and drum machines.
To enable MIDI Note output from the arpeggiator and sequencer:
1. Press the
globals
button then press program selector button 5 (
param
xmit
)
.
2. Use the
bank
and
tens
buttons as decrement and increment buttons to
step through available settings and select either
cas
or
nas
. Your choice
depends on whether you were previously using CC or NRPN to send
MIDI controller data to your external device, as either setting will send
MIDI notes out. Choose
cas
if CC. Choose
nas
if NRPN.
3. Once you’ve chosen the desired setting, press the
globals
button twice to
exit.
To control an external MIDI device:
1. Connect the MIDI or USB output of the Trigon-6 to the MIDI or USB
input of the external device, depending on which type of connection the
external device requires.
2. On the Trigon-6, press the
globals
button, then press program selector
button 9 (
midi
out
)
to select nid (
midi
)
or usb (
usb
)
.
3. Press the
globals
button twice to exit the Global menu.
4. On the external device, set the MIDI Channel and MIDI Receive port to
match the Trigon-6.
5. Hold down a chord on the Trigon-6 or start sequencer playback. The
external device will be triggered by the arpeggiated or sequenced notes.
