MIDI BUS
MIDI BUS
is the
interface
system
that
converts the CV
or Gate
signal
to
the
digital
signal for the communication
be-
tween
two connected units. The informa-
tion available
in JX-3P
are as follows,
(a)
Key
(which key Is played)
(b)Hold
(turning the Hold Pedal
on or off)
(c)
Bender (Pitch Bender)
(d)Tone
Colors (selecting
patches)
Therefore, you can have the external
device
controlled
by
the JX-3P's
keyboard
or
Hold Pedal (i.e. if
pressing
the
Hold
Pedal
of the
JX-3P,
you will benefit
a Hold
effect
even In the external device).
•Although the JX-3P MIDI
BUS sends all
the
information
(a) to (d), some of this
may
not be received
by the external
device
if the relevant functions
are
mis-
sing.
For instance. If
the external
device
does not include the Bender
function,
moving the Pitch Bender
on the JX-3P
does not affect the external device.

If
you wish
to
omit any
effect of
(b), (c)
and (d) from the external device, turn the
JX-3P off first then
do as
follows.
•
(b)

Turn the
JX-3P on, while
holding the Tone
Selector button 14
down.
•
(c)
'
holding
the
down.
•
(d)
holding the
down.
If
you
wish
to
stop
more than
2
effects at a
time, simply hold
the relevant Tone selec-
tor
buttons down, and
turn the JX-3P on,
Now the
information
omitted is not
ex-
changed
between these two
devices.
•
If on the contrary the
JX-3P is controlled
by the
other unit,
take the
same
pro-
cedures,
then the JX-3P wit!
no longer
receive the
information (b
to d) from the
unit.
