below–after setting the first two or three reception
parameters described above, do not exit the MIDI IN
mode by pressing the MIDI IN button in response to the
“OMNI ON” or “RECEIVE CH = XX” display.
Midi Reception Parameters
Instrument Key Numbers
The RX15 is capable of receiving and transmitting MIDI
“key number” data via the MIDI IN and MIDI OUT
connectors, respectively. A key number generally
corresponds to the number (pitch) of a key played on a
synthesizer keyboard. Middle C, for example, is MIDI key
number 60. A MIDI sequencer, for example, outputs key
numbers to a keyboard, causing the synthesizer to play
the corresponding notes.
The RX15 has basically 13 different instrument sounds.
Each of these can be assigned a key number between
36 (C1) and 99 (D # 6).
This makes it possible for any key number transmitted by
a MIDI synthesizer, sequencer or music computer to
activate any RX15 instrument. Conversely, any
instrument played on the RX15—in a pattern, song, or
played manually-can activate any note on a
synthesizer or any instrument on another rhythm
machine.
The process for assigning key numbers to the RX15
instruments is actually an extension of the MIDI
reception parameter designation process outlined above.
The key number assignment mode can be entered from
either the “OMNI ON/OFF” or RECEIVE CH = XX”
displays of the MIDI IN programming mode by pressing
any of the instruments buttons. Suppose, for example,
the RIMSHOT button is pressed in response to the
“OMNI ON” display. The LCD panel will respond with
“RIM NOTE = XX”, where “XX” is a number (the key
number currently set for the rimshot sound) between 36
and 99. Any new key number can be set using the DATA
ENTRY control. Once set, other instruments can be
selected in succession by pressing the appropriate
instrument buttons, and their key numbers can be set in
the same way. Press the MIDI IN button to exit the MIDI
IN programming mode.
