OUTPUT
The M-GS64 has two MIDI IN connectors. This is because there
are only 16 MIDI channels, so it is necessary to have two MIDI
connectors in order to play 32 Parts.
Parts are classified into Group A (AQ1 - Al6) and Group B (BOI -
B16), with sixteen Parts in each group. The MIDI channel
assigned to each Part is also displayed in two groups as AQl -
Al6 or BO1 - B16. At the factory settings, groups A and B corre-
spond to the M-GS64’s two MIDI IN jacks A and B. In other
words, MIDI messages received at MIDI IN A are sent to the
group A Parts, and MIDI messages received at MIDI IN B are
sent to the group B Parts. For example, a MID] message on chan-
nel 5 received at MIDI IN B will sound Part B05 (when still set to
the factory settings).
* Be aware that the way in which the data is sent from the two
MIDI IN jacks to the various Parts will depend on the setting
of the Matrix 4 parameter, “In Mode” ( p. 16). Also, Exclusive
messages received at MIDI IN A can be passed on to Parts of
group B, depending on the specified address. ( p. 22)
