6. MIDI

Use this function to set the various MIDI parameters.
Press the [UTILITY] button and then the [F6] button to go to 
the MIDI function.
2 display pages are provided: Channel (Channel Message),  
and SysEx (System Exclusive — page 201).

Channel Message

[UTILITY] Button 

 [F6] Button 

 Knob 1 to select 

"UTIL-Channel"

Determines how received MIDI channel messages wil be 
internally handled by the A5000/A4000.

• MIDI performance data which is set to “disable” via the parameters

in this section will not be recorded by the sequencer record func-
tion.

Knob 1

[

Turn] Cursor/Page

Positions the cursor and selects display pages.

[

Press] Tree View

Calls the Tree View display (page 83).

Knob 2

[

Turn] Omni

Set this value on to enable reception over all channels. 
Note that setting the value to on disables the Basic Chan-
nel setting, since the A5000/A4000 will accept note mes-
sages, program-change messages (if Program Change =
receive; see below), and control-change messages over
all channels.

[Range] off,  on

Knob 3

[

Turn] Transpose

Turn either knob to set the transposition applied to
received note values, in semitones. Set to +0 if you do not
want to apply any transposition.

[Range] -127 — +127

• If you set the value to +1, the A5000/A4000 will

transpose all received note values upward by one
semitone. If the MIDI device transmits a Note-On for
A4, the A5000/A4000 will change the value to A

#

4

before passing it into the internal tone generator.

[

Press] QUICK...

Calls the quick entry menu (page 83).

Knob 4

[

Turn] Velocity Curve

This setting selects the conversion curve that the A5000/
A4000 uses to adjust received velocity values before
sending them to the tone generator.

[Range] normal,  soft-1,  soft-2,  hard-1,  hard-2,  

vel=7 — 127

• normal ... Linear relationship

• soft-1, soft-2 ... The applied velocity rises more

rapidly in the low-velocity range, with the rate

becoming flatter at higher range. Use one of

these settings if you tend to strike the key-

board lightly when playing. The soft-2 setting

is more pronounced than the soft-1 setting.

• hard-1, hard-2 ... The applied velocity increases

relatively slowly in the low-velocity range, with

the rate becoming sharper as velocity gets

higher. Use one of these settings if you have a

relatively strong key attack. The hard-2 setting

is more pronounced than the hard-1 setting.

• vel=7 — 127 ... Uses a single velocity for all notes,

regardless of received velocity value. You can

set the applied velocity to any velocity value

ending in 7 (127, 117,...,17, 7).

Knob 1

Same function as Cursor 

q

 (page 200).

Knob 2

[

Turn] Program Change

Determines whether received MIDI program change data
will be passed on to the sampler or not.

[Range] receive,  disable

• receive ... Received program change data will

affect sampler operation.

• disable ... Received program change data will not

affect sample operation.
