These
parameters are
related to the MIDI
transmission of the
performance
data, and they change
the way sounds of
the
external sound source
respond to the
data. They consist of
the same
parameters used
with Parts and internal
zones
described above, such as
volume and
velocity. The
processed data is
transmitted from
the MIDI OUT
terminal. The MIDI
transmission
channel of the transmit
zone is like
that
of
a Part, and
the external sound source
which is matched to the
receiving channel is
like a Patch. It can be
used not only
for controlling
several external
sound sources as a
master keyboard, but
also can be used to
edit the data
of the device
like
a
sequencer.

The
method of operation for
the
transmit zone related to
realtime play
Is the same as
that of a
Part or
internal zone. The
explanation here
describes how to create play
data by various
devices, including a
sequencer.
When entering play
data, call up beforehand the
Performance
which was set
at the beginning of the song.
The
program change number
for selecting the
Performance is ;??:
transmitted to the
control channel; at
the same
time, the program
change number
and
the
volume information
for the sound
program which is to
be used in the song
is transmitted
over the MIDI
transmission Channel of each
transmit zone.
In this case, on the
Parts for which
transmission of data is not
needed, set the MIDI
transmit switch to OFF.
It is possible to transmit
the necessary program
change numbers,
volume and pan data for
the song in
realtime. First,
record only
the play data for the song.
Then, by controlling
the transmit zone
parameters
while listening to the song,
you can
overdub volume and pan data or
even record on another
track.
This makes it easy to
balance the
relative
volume
of each sound program,
letting you
continuously fade in and fade
out the tracks.
Performance is played by the
data of
Q
+
n|.
Also, if
you record this onto
another track of
the sequencer,
the two
tracks,
Q
and
H,
can
be merged to
one track.

The velocity parameters are normally used
to limit or emphasize
velocity values in the
play data.
However,
if you
set
each transmit zone to transmit
with different velocity settings,
you can in one pass
simultaneously
create
a
maximum
of eight separate "blocks" of
play data, each with
different velocities.
Moreover,
by
using the transpose or
key range
settings, it is possible to automatically
transpose the data as you record
it, or to split your
keyboard performance data
onto
different
channels
depending on the key
range; for example,
separating the data of the
right and left hand Parts.
Using the transmit zone
settings
in
this way allows
you process or
edit the data in
realtime as
you play.
^
There are parameters other than the parameters
described above which
do not belong to the
Performance but are
play-related
and
are common to the entire operation of
the JV-80 (System
COmmon parameters).
These settings
are maintained and do not change even when selecting different
Performances or
entering other modes. (See P.72)
