manual abstract
When working with an external sequencer, be sure to establish both connections and to set Local (page 50) to “Off”. External MIDI deviceKR-777/177 Out In MIDI KR103 External MIDI device Note: You don’t always need two MIDI cables. Just look at the arrows in the above illustration for deciding which ports you need to connect the cable to. You can also connect the KR103’s USB port to a USB port of your computer, in which case the MIDI IN and OUT connectors are bypassed. If you choose to work with the USB port, you may have to install the appropriate drivers on your computer. See the “Readme” files on the enclosed CD-ROM for details. Caution The KR103 only transmits “realtime” MIDI data. Thus, only the notes you play on the keyboard as well as the pedal data are transmitted (but not the Arranger or Recorder data). Note: The KR103 does not receive SysEx messages when the Recorder is being used. Each time you play on the KR103’s keyboard, your Digital Intelligent Piano transmits MIDI data to its MIDI OUT socket (or USB port). If you connect the MIDI OUT socket to the MIDI IN socket of another instrument, that instrument may play the same notes as one of the KR103’s parts, select sounds, etc. Note: The KR103 receives on all MIDI channels assigned to the various parts. The KR103 contains the following MIDI parameters, which are part of the Function group. Here is how to select them and what they mean: Editing MIDI parameters You can edit the KR103’s Function parameters via the display. Here is a general outline of the procedure for all parameters discussed below: (1) Press the [Function] button (its indicator must light). Reverb Balance Demo Volume Brilliance Function Part Balance Transpose KeyboardAccomp User Program (2) Use [v][®] to select the parameter you wish to edit (see below). MIDI parameters Local—(On/Off, Default setting: On) The Local parameter allows you to establish or remove the connection between the KR103’s keyboard and the internal tone generator. When set to “ON” (default), playing on the KR103’s keyboard will cause the corresponding notes to sound. If you select “OFF”, the corresponding MIDI messages are no longer sent to the internal tone generator – but they are still transmitted to the MIDI OUT port and hence to external MIDI instruments. MIDI OUT LOCAL ON LOCAL OFF MIDI OUT Sound source Sound source Note: The setting of this parameter is not memorized when you switch the KR103 off. TX Chnl—(1~16, Default setting: 1) This parameter refers to the MIDI channel used for transmitting messages from the KR103 to external instruments (“TX” is short for “transmit”). If the external instrument is set to receive on (RX) MIDI channel 3, select “3” here. Otherwise, the external instrument will neither play nor select sounds, etc. Note: MIDI messages sent from the external MIDI instrument to the KR103 are received on all channels. However, all keyboard information (of the Upper, Layer, Lower, chord, and bass sound) will be transmitted on one channel. For the following, always set the numbers in the same order as they appear in the display: start with “Send MSB” (CC00), then set “Send LSB” (CC32), and finally set a “Send PC” value. 50 Editing MIDI parametersKR103 Digital Intelligent Piano r Editing MIDI parametersKR103 Digital Intelligent Piano r “MSB” and “LSB” are so-called “Bank Select” messages. “Bank Select” messages are control change messages, which were added when it became clear that the number of sounds that can be selected using program change messages (128) was no longer sufficient to access all sounds of a given instrument. Send MSB—(0~127, Default setting: 0) Use this parameter to specify the bank that contains the sound you want to select. Instruments with more than 128 sounds (like the KR103) use several banks. Send LSB—(0~127, Default setting: 0) Use this parameter to specify the group that contains the sound you want to select. Instruments of other manufacturers may also use this message (CC32) to specify the sound bank (the KR103 only uses the value “2”). Send PC—(1~128, Default setting: 1) “Send PC” are MIDI messages that tell the receiving instrument to select another sound (or Tone). There may be situations where you would like to double the Upper part melody with a sound of an external instrument that is not automatically selected. Be sure to first set the “Set MSB” and “Set LSB” parameters before choosing a value for “Send PC”. Otherwise, you may be unable to pinpoint the sound the external instrument should use. Note: The three “Send” values are only transmitted to an external MIDI instrument (or a sequencer). They have no effect on the KR103 itself. (3) Press the [Exit] button to leave this function.
