PIPE:
the
[MIDI OUT] port transmits MIDI data after actions applied to the organ and also the
data received through the [MIDI IN] port. If a
Chorum
combination is recalled by a MIDI
Program Change message received from an external device (for more information read par. 10.6)
such as a MIDI sequencer,
Chorum
will transmit the content of the combination (stops, couplers,
tremulant) to the [MIDI OUT] port.
Always use this mode when
Chorum
is connected to a digital pipe interface
VPI
(
Viscount Pipe
Interface
), to ensure a complete compatibility between the two devices.

SELECTING THE INPUT AND OUTPUT CHANNELS (MIDI CHANNELS function)
The organ can send out and receive MIDI messages on a single channel for each section. To set the MIDI
channels, select the
CHANNELS
field in the MIDI menu. The following page will appear:
Three-manual
models
Two-manual
models
The
SECTION
column lists the organ sections; for each section a channel from the
TX
(transmission
channel) and
RX
(receiving channel) can be assigned. Press [EXIT] to leave the screen and save the
settings.
OFF
mode disables the transmission and/or reception of all MIDI messages for the selected
organ section.
To quit the page and save the current settings, press [EXIT].
FILTERS SETTINGS (MIDI FILTERS function)
A MIDI filter allows to block a particular message
on all MIDI channels
(if the signal is channelled). The
Control Change filter, for example, blocks these MIDI messages in the [MIDI OUT] port, on all MIDI
channels of the organ. In the same way, the receiving filter blocks PC on all channels (therefore they are
not executed when recalling combinations, Tutti, Crescendo) received from the [MIDI IN] port.
To configure the MIDI filters, select the
FILTERS
field in the MIDI menu.
