360 Systems Midi Bass User Manual

Buttons #1 through #4 select the different EPROM sounds. Midi Bass always "wakes up" on position #1...

This slide switch allows you to choose the MIDI channel number that Midi Bass receives.

For most performance work and especially when using a sequencer, place the switch in the LAST note (middle) position.

It is often useful to extract the lowest note played within a chord, and ignore all others.

In this mode Midi Bass plays the highest note within a chord. By voicing chords suitably it can play a predictable harmony line.

If you would like Midi Bass to play only in the left hand and not in the right hand, then you may want to set an upper limit.

At times it will be useful for Midi Bass to play in its upper ranges, and not go below a certain point.

This button enables MIDI channels 8 through 14. While holding the SET button, press button #1 momentarily.

When Midi Bass is first turned on it does NOT respond to MIDI program change commands...

Repeated installation and removal of EPROM memory chips from regular IC sockets can damage the pins on the IC...

Turn the power off and unplug Midi Bass. Remove the four rubber feet from the bottom. Use a small flat-blade screwdriver...

Turn the power off and unplug Midi Bass. Notice that a notch is present in one end of the EPROM. This must be oriented toward the FRONT of Midi Bass.

If there is an EPROM in a standard socket, remove it as described above. Notice that the ZIF socket has a small #1 printed on its top surface.
