Sequential Prophet VS - Specification; Channel

97
SPECIFICATION
Note: All values are in hexadecimal unless otherwise noted.
Note: Whenever possible, to save time, the Prophet-VS transmits using
running status. This means that if the status byte is unchanged, it is not sent.
Channel
Byte Description Range Examples/notes
Note O
8N N = channel number 0-F
kk key number 00-7F 24 is key Cl (lowest)
vv velocity ignored
Transmit
Not transmitted. For transmit, 9N with a velocity of 00 is used.
Receive
In Mode 1, channel is ignored.
In Mode 3, Single keyboard, channel number must match the right channel.
In this case the message is treated like a local key. In Mode 3 Split or Double,
channel number must match base number set for one of the halves, (in
Split mode, the channel is split, which in eect gives you two four-voice
synthesizers with full-size keyboards.)
In Mode 4, each voice is assigned to a channel. The channels are determined
by the RIGHT CHANNEL and LEFT CHANNEL settings. Depending on these
settings, it is possible for voices to overlap ranges—which may be desirable
in certain applications. While in Mode 4, if a voice which is already o receives
another Note O, it will change to that pitch without retriggering the envelope
(legato note o for guitar controllers, etc).
Note O
9N N = channel number 0-F
kk key number 00-7F 24 is key Cl (lowest)
00 zero velocity
Transmit
In Mode 1, or Mode 3 or 4 in Single keyboard mode, the channel number
equals the right channel. In Modes 3 or 4 with Split or Double modes on, the
channel number equals the channel number on the side that the voice involved
was assigned to. In Double mode, two Note Os are sent per key release—
once for each side's base channel.
Regardless of the keyboard mode, transmission is a copy of the local
keyboard.
Receive
Same as above
