If you initialize, you delete all the data of the Sirius’ internal memory. All the
parameters are set to “factory standard”.
Amplifier with built-in speakers.
A LFO offers various waveforms which can be used to modulate
the volume, or of a synthesizer.
a musical theme permanently repeated.
Enables the communication between electronic
instruments of different manufacturers. Only digital data concerning the played notes or the
adjustments of an instrument are transferred, not the audible music itself. The data includes note
information, controller information and .
Two MIDI-devices have to communicate on the same MIDI-Channels.
recognize more than one MIDI-channel at once. The Sirius can communicate on 7
channels at once, so it can be seen as 7 independent synthesizers.
For details see chapter “The Sirius and MIDI”.
Midi data used for changing or modulating the sound. For the Sirius, all sound
parameters can be controlled via MIDI-Controllers.
A MIDI-Data-Dump is a transfer of synthesizer settings through the MIDI
Interface. The transfer is done through
Connector for receiving MIDI data. Connect for example the MIDI-Output of your Sirius
to the MIDI-In of your computer sequencer in order to transfer data into the sequencer from the
Sirius.
There are 16 Midi-Channels, so that you can address up to 16 instruments on only
one Midi-Cable. In the , each instrument has it’s own and
reacts only on notes and controllers on this channel. (additionally see
)
The MIDI-Master-Channel has two meanings. It is the when
transferring and it is the first of the 7 Sirius instrument channels.
A MIDI-Merger is able to mix two digital MIDI-Outputs for one MIDI-In.
A synthesizer with MIDI-Multi-Mode is independently able to react to more
than one at once. Meaning: A synthesizer with this feature acts like several
independent instruments (Sirius: 7 channels=7 instruments).
In MIDI-Omni-Mode, the MIDI-Channel information is ignored. Only one
instrument can be played through one MIDI-Cable. This can be found mainly with old synthesizers.
