Chapter 7 Environment Configuration and
Playing back arpeggio on the MC-307
using an external MIDI keyboard
This setting enables the MC-307 to play back arpeggio upon
reception of note messages from a particular MIDI channel.
(If the Remote Keyboard Switch is ON, you can simply
turn the arpeggiator on and play the external MIDI keyboard
to produce arpeggios.)
Procedure
If the MC-307s Remote Keyboard Switch is set OFF,
1. Set the MC-307s Arpeggio Control Channel to match the
transmit channel of the external MIDI keyboard (P. 124).
* It is a good idea to set the Arpeggio Control Channel so it does
not conflict with the transmit/receive channels of each of the
MC-307’s parts.
2. Press [ARP] button to turn the arpeggiator on.
3. When you play the external MIDI keyboard, arpeggios
will sound on the selected part.
Using the MC-307 as a sound
generator/controller, in conjunction
with a computer
By using MIDI sequence software for a personal computer,
you can use the MC-307 as a sound generator as well as a
controller. Establish connection as follows.
* If you wish to connect a computer and play the MC-307 from a
MIDI sequencer program etc., you will need to use a MIDI
interface appropriate for your computer.
Procedure
1. Turn on the Thru function of your MIDI sequencer
software.
2. Make the following settings on the MC-307.
- Local Tx Switch for all parts: EXT
(refer to Disconnecting the keyboard pads from the
internal sound generator (LOCAL TX SW) (p. 126).)
- Remote Keyboard Switch: OFF
(refer to Using an external MIDI keyboard in place of the
keyboard pads (REMOTE KEYBOARD) (p. 123).)
- Thru function: OFF
(refer to Re-transmitting messages received at MIDI IN
from MIDI OUT (THRU) (p. 123).)
