1) Setting MIDI Channeis
The JX-10’s MIDI aliows to set two different
channels separately for the Upper and the Lower
sections.
Even when different channels are assigned to the
upper and the lower, in the Dual Key Mode, the
JX-10 will be played with the Note ON/OFF mes-
sages (Key information) sent on the MIDI channe!
assigned to the upper. The MIDI channel of the
lower is ignored. Likewise, when the Key Mode is
the Lower Whole, the JX-10 is played with the
Note ON/OFF messages of the lower section. And
when in the Split Key Mode, the upper and lower
sections are piayed independently with the mes-
sages sent on each MIDI channel.
@ Push the MIDI of the Edit Buttons @.
The corresponding indicator will light up, and the
Display will show the MIDI function previously
selected.
The Program Change messages basically work to
change the Tone Numbers. Therefore, if two diffe-
rent MIDI channels are separately set for the upper
and the lower sections, the Tone of each section
can be changed independently.
The Prograrn Change messages can also change
the Patch Memories. This is fully explained later
in “Selecting a Patch Memory with MIDI Program
Change”.
Now, using the Ten Keys @), assign the number of
the MIDI Function you wish to change. Here, it is
MIDI Channel for the upper section, so the number
is 2, 0.
@ Push 2, 0 and ENTER of the Ten Keys.
@® Using the a Dial, change the MID! channel
number.
To set the MIDI channel for the lower section,
push 3, 0 and ENTER in the step @.
The MIDI channels you have set as this will be
erased from the memory of the JX-10 unless you
follow the writing procedure.
