The keyboard is powered from USB. Note: Do not leave the adapter plugged in for long periods of time if the unit is not in use. 2. Preparation 2-1 Connect the unit with other MIDI equipment you may have: You can connect the keyboard to any other MIDI device such as a sound module or drum machine as shown below. Note that the keyboard does not have MIDI in capability and so can not receive MIDI data. If you are not connecting via USB, you will need to use an external power supply to connect to other MIDI devices. If you are using USB the keyboard will be powered from the USB port and the external power supply is not necessary. The keyboard can act in MIDI THRU mode receiving data from the computer and transmitting it to any other connected MIDI device. Turn on the POWER switch. Turn all other equipment on. Press the BANK MSB and TRANSPOSE simultaneously to select ‘MIDI out from USB’ (only necessary if using the USB port). 3. Demo Pressing octave up and down together plays a short demonstration. Please note that the sounds are set for a GM sound system and the demo will sound differently on other sound synthesizers. Press the octave up and down keys once more to end demo. 4. Entering Numbers When any number is entered it adheres to the following rules: Increment/Decrement Keys Initially the LED display starts flashing. The value displayed can be incremented/decremented using the +/- keys. Pressing both + & - should call up the default value for that parameter. The LED display shows the new value. The new value is sent out except for the CONTROL ASSIGN which sends data when the display stops flashing) When the display stops flashing the keyboard returns to normal operation. Numeric Keys Initially the LED display starts flashing. A numeric value can be typed in using the numbers 0-9. As each key is pressed the display continues to flash, the time-out value is reset. When a complete number* has been entered the display stops flashing and the value is selected. Alternatively, if no key is pressed and the display stops flashing the number on the display is selected. The update routine is triggered, so that the new value is sent out. When the display stops flashing the keyboard returns to normal operation. * The following table shows how many keys are required to enter a complete number:1 key 2 keys 3 keys Channel 2-9 01,10-16 Memory 0-9 Program Changes 13-99 000-012, 100-127 Bank LSB/MSB 13-99 000-012, 100-127 Control Select 2-9 01,10-14 Control Assign 14-99 000-013, 100-132 5. Sending a PROGRAM CHANGE number Using the PROGRAM switch and the numeric keys, you can send any MIDI PROGRAM CHANGE from 0-127. Press the PROGRAM switch. The LED starts to flash showing the current PROGRAM number (instrument sound). Press the numeric keys to alter the PROGRAM CHANGE number. You can also use the “+” or “-” keys to change the value. Note: * if you don’t do anything for 3 seconds the LED stops flashing and shows the current PROGRAM CHANGE number. . if the number you press is larger than 127, it will return to the previous PROGRAM CHANGE number. 6. PROGRAM & BANK CHANGE MEMORY You can assign a selected PROGRAM CHANGE as well as a BANK LSB and a BANK MSB to one of ten numeric keys (0-9). Once stored, simply pressing one of the numeric keys will send the desired PROGRAM and BANK CHANGES. The stored information is held in non-volatile memory which will remember even if the power is turned off. Select the desired PROGRAM CHANGE, BANK LSB and MSB. Please refer to respective chapters for information on how to do this. Press the MEMORY switch. The LED starts to flash. Press the numeric key (from 0 to 9) you wish to assign the data to. The PROGRAM and BANK CHANGE information is stored on the selected numeric key. 7. Setting the MIDI Transmit Channel There are 16 MIDI transmit channels available. Once you have set the unit’s MIDI channel, the unit sends all MIDI messages on this MIDI channel. Be sure to match the channel with the RECEIVE channel of any connected equipment. Press the CHANNEL switch. The LED shows the present TRANSMIT channel Press one (or two) of the numeric keys to change the channel. The LED changes to the pressed number. You can also use +/- switches to increase or decrease the value. Note: * if you do nothing after step 3-1 for 3 seconds, the LED will return to show the present PROGRAM CHANGE number. The default CHANNEL is 1 when power is turned on. If you have a MK-225C/MK-249C/MK-361C, you can assign each of the rotary controls to a different cha...
