Midi output
TM62100 features midi output on several midi channels. The various synth-groups (see
MIDI input) also apply here. This means the upper, lower and pedal keyboards can send
on different midi channels. In split mode the two parts send on different midi channels as
well. The midi channel numbers can be set in the config menu, as well as individual output
channels turned off.
The range and notes sent are identical to the ones received:
The midi note range of group 1 and 2 is C1 (note 24) – C6 (note 84).
The range group 3 is C2 (note 36) – C5 (note 72).
Only note output is supported. Filter cutoff or other parameters can not be sent.
Pedal note priority
The padal synth group, usually associated with the BASS and SOLO sections, is
monophonic. Usually (and in the original) the note priority is ‘highest note’, meaning when
several keys are pressed, the highest note will play.
With TM62100 you can change the note priority to one of the following modes:
•
Highest: The highest note plays
•
Lowest: The lowest note plays
•
Last: When pressing a new key, it plays in every case. When releasing a key while
one or more other keys are still pressed, the most recently played note will play.
This continues until all keys are released.
The note priority can be set in the config menu.
Gate dead time
When playing on the keyboard or via midi, there need to be a short pause between two
notes. This pause is needed for the envelope (for example of the poly-synth) to retrigger.
Without the pause, the envelope will not start the attack phase from the beginning.
While it is almost humanly impossible to
not
include a short pause between notes when
playing on a keyboard, it is very common to send a midi note-on command right after a
note-off. The result in this case is that the envelope does not retrigger. This is most likely
not the intended behaviour.
One way to rectify this is to include a short pause when programming the midi notes.
Instead of one full bar, your note might just be a little bit shorter.
Alternatively, TM62100 can automatically insert a pause before the next note is played.
This is the “gate dead time” and it can be set in the config menu. The best value needs to
