Here’s where you can configure the MIDI settings for the microKORG2.
MIDI stands for Musical Instrument Digital Interface, and is a worldwide standard for exchanging vari-
ous types of musical data between electronic musical instruments and computers. When MIDI cables
are used to connect two or more MIDI devices or computers, performance data can be exchanged
between them, even if they were made by different manufacturers.
On the microKORG2, control change numbers are assigned to the main parameters that alter the
sound, and you can use an external MIDI sequencer to trigger the sound generator while controlling
these parameters. → MIDI Implementation Chart
You can also synchronize the arpeggiator, LFO cycle effect delay time and so on to the MIDI clocks
received from your DAW or similar software, making the microKORG2 follow your playing.
1. Global Ch [1...16 Ch]
Sets the global MIDI channel.
This MIDI channel is used to transmit and receive note messages, bend messages and control change
messages for Timbre 1.
2. Timbre 2 Ch (Timb2 Ch) [1...16 Ch]
Sets the MIDI channel that Timbre 2 will send and receive MIDI messages on. Timbre 2 will sound
when a note message is received via this MIDI channel.
3. Routing [USB+MIDI, USB]
Sets the routing for MIDI messages.
USB+MIDI: Message input is received from both the USB port and MIDI IN connector, and messages
are output from this port and connector as well.
USB: Messages are only transmitted and received via the USB port.
4. Clock Source (ClockSrc) [Auto, Internal, External USB, External MIDI]
Sets the clock to which the arpeggiator is synchronized.
Tip: This also affects the LOOP RECORDER, LFO and DELAY.
Auto: When MIDI clock messages are not being input, the instrument uses the internal clock; when
MIDI clock messages are being input, the instrument synchronizes to the clocks received via either
the USB port or the MIDI IN connector.
