SYSTEM OBJECT ACCESS MESSAGES
SYSTEM RESOURCE ACCESS
Messages relating to the RESOURCE ACCESS allow the transfer via MIDI of the same basic resources of the instrument that can be exported to
disk, and which are:
System SETUP
SOUNDS
GLOBAL PRESETS
STYLE PRESETS
USER STYLES
SONGS
Each type of resource can constitute several files, in which case, before transmitting, are compacted into a single data block..
The transmission can take place in handshake mode for higher speeds and better control of the data transmitted (the system automatically recog-
nizes the mode utilized according to the reply given or not after the transmission of the File Header Message).
The MIDI message transmitted consists of the following structure:
F0H = System Exclusive Message status
2FH = ID number (manufacturer ID) = GENERAL MUSIC
5cH = Command ID: 5=Resource Access, c=device ID(0-F)
6
ss = Subfunction ID
id = Model ID, 00 = WK4
cf = c = checksum (0-1), f = Data Format (0-3)
pp = packet number (optional)
<data> = (optional)
cc = checksum (optional)
F7H = EOX
Subfunction ID: File Header 01H
File Data 02H
Resource Request 03H
Parametr Request 40H
Parameter Data 41H
7
ACK 7FH
NACK 7EH
CANCEL 7DH
WAIT 7CH
The transmission of one of the available resources starts by sending a message (File Header message) to indentify the successve blocks of data
desired (File Data message).
Typically the files concerned can be relatively long, therefore it is better to subdevide the information into several brief packets which can be
individually tested and eventually retransmitted (in the case of using the handshake mode and the reception of an ACK reply confirms the correct-
ness of the packet received, while a reply of the type NACK forces the retransmission of the error packet).
Should it be necessar to interrupt the transmissoin, it is always possible to send the CANCEL command at any moment during the course of the
communication.
A WAIT command has also beed included for future implementations.
File Header message:
F0H = System Exclusive Message status
2FH = ID number (manufacturer ID) = GENERAL MUSIC
5cH = Command ID: 5=Resource Access, c=device ID(0-F)
01H = Subfunction ID = FILE HEADER
00 = Model ID, 00 = WK4
03H = not checksum, format 3 (octect)
<data> = 3 octects

Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the GEM SK760 Special Edition and SK880 Special Edition World Key-
board by Generalmusic.
These instruments provide high quality sounds and accompaniments, and a simple user interface with
a graphic instrument display which allows total control of all the performance and programming activi-
ties.
POWER AND MULTIMEDIA FACILITIES
The new Special Edition Series instruments, SK760SE and SK880SE, incorporate a Flash-ROM memory
which allows the instruments to be updated by disk with the latest operational advantages and new
functions. The basic Operating System, which features 24 Mbytes of ROM sounds, an advanced Edit
Sound function and the Sample Translator is common to both versions, not to mention the Audio Vocal
Processor for vocal harmonizer possibilities as well as multi-effect processing of incoming line/mic sig-
nals. Both models incorporate 8 Megabytes of Sample RAM (D-RAM) memory to increase the number
of on-board waveforms with samples from a wide range of choices. Both models incorporate an on-
board Floppy disk drive, an on-board 2.5” IDE Hard Disk and a SCSI interface.
A guitar player can connect to the audio inputs of the SK760/880SE Series instruments and play the
chords which appear on a monitor connected to the instrument’s video outputs, and mix his sounds with
those of the workstation (complete with effects processing!). At the same time a group of singers can
follow the lyrics projected on a television (or other video projection device) by the SK870/880SE video
interface.
HOW TO USE THE OWNER’S MANUAL
To ensure long, trouble-free operation, please read this manual carefully. The Owner’s Manual is sup-
plied as a 3-ring binder with instructions inserted inside.
First, read the Quick Guide chapter while operating the SK760/880SE which explains the functions of
each button and the display. This will help you understand the basic operation of the instrument. Graphical
illustrations are included for a better understanding of the instrument.
Once you are acquainted with the instrument’s basic functions, use the Reference Guide to discover all
the potentials of your SK760/SK880SE World Keyboard.
At the end of the manual is the Appendix containing various tables, MIDI information and an index.
