Parameter Setting
Performance PC Tx O, On
Part Switch Tx
Whenever you mute or un-mute a part on the “Rhythm Parts” page,
the BK-9 transmits an NRPN message that describes your action.
Not sending this message may be useful to keep your external
sequencer from recording it—or the receiving GS module from
muting the part assigned to that MIDI channel.
Parameter Setting
Part Switch Tx O, On
Rx
Switches the reception of MIDI messages on the Basic channel on
or o.
Parameter Setting
Rx O, On
Rx Channel
Use this parameter to assign a MIDI transmit channel to the “Basic”

This parameter is used to enable or disable the reception of
program change and bank select messages related to Performance
selection.
Parameter Setting

Master Volume Rx
Allows you to enable or disable the reception of Master Volume
messages that would change the BK-9’s overall volume. This is an
exclusive message common to all newer MIDI devices.
Parameter Setting
Master Volume Rx O, On
Part Switch Rx
Whenever you mute or un-mute a part on the “Rhythm Parts” page,
the BK-9 transmits an NRPN message that describes your action.
You can keep the BK-9 from responding to such messages to avoid
that external instruments mute its parts.
Parameter Setting
Part Switch Rx O, On
Rhythm
The following parameters are located on the display page that
can be selected using [MENU] button “MIDI” “Edit System”
“Rhythm”.
Right Display
The Rhythm channel is used for receiving program change and
bank select messages that select rhythms and volume messages
that change the rhythm’s volume.
The MIDI address of a rhythm consists of three elements: a CC00
number, a CC32 number and a program change number. The
values assigned to CC00 and CC32 dene the rhythm, whereas
the program change number denes the Division (Intro, Ending,
etc.). See the “Rhythm List“. You can download it from http://www.
roland.com/manuals.
Sending only a program change number selects another Division of
the currently active rhythm. Be aware, however, that only sending
CC00 and CC32 messages (without a program change) has no
eect.
NOTE
When you select another rhythm on your BK-9, it transmits a
CC00-CC32-PC cluster on the Rhythm channel, which you could
record using an external sequencer.
See the “Rhythm List”.
