MIDI Show Control
MIDI Show control was developed to allow MIDI systems to communicate
with dedicated control equipment in environments such as live
performance, multi-media and theatre.
The MSC commands that the control console recognize are:
GO, STOP, RESUME, TIMED_GO, SET, FIRE, and ALL_OFF.
GO: Starts a fade to a cue. If no cue number is specified, the next cue in
numerical sequence will execute.
STOP: Halts currently running fades
RESUME: Causes stopped fades to continue running
TIMED_GO: Starts a timed fade to a cue
SET: Defines the value of a submaster, channel, or trait
FIRE: Triggers a Macro
ALL_OFF: Turns off all functions and outputs
Before the console can transmit or receive MSC protocol, you must first
select this option from the setup display and then set the Device Id number
(if receiving). The Device Id is used to indicate the intended receiver of a
message.
