MIDI SETTINGS MIDI SETTINGS MIDI is an acronym for "Musical Instrument Digital Interface" and refers to a protocol developed for the exchange of data between electronic instruments and computers. A MIDI cable is used to connect components equipped with MIDI connectors to enable the transmission and receipt of data. The DJM-800 uses the MIDI protocol for transmitting and receiving data about component operation and BPM (timing clock). DJ CD Player MIDI sequencer OUT Audio IN BPM =120 BPM =120 IN MIDI OUT DJM-800 MIDI START /STOP TIME SYNCHRONIZING AUDIO SIGNALS TO EXTERNAL SEQUENCER, OR USING DJM-800 INFORMATION TO OPERATE AN EXTERNAL SEQUENCER 1. Use a commercially available MIDI cable to connect the DJM-800's MIDI OUT connector to the MIDI sequencer's MIDI IN connector. ¶ Set the MIDI sequencer's synch mode to "Slave". ¶ MIDI sequencers that do not support MIDI timing clock cannot be synchronized. ¶ Synch may not be achieved if the track's BPM cannot be detected and measured stably. ¶ BPM values set with the TAP mode can also be used to output the timing clock. 2. Press the MIDI START/STOP button. ¶ The MIDI timing clock output range is 40 to 250 BPM. Note: ¶ Accurate measuring of BPM may be impossible with some tracks. [MIDI Channel Setting] The MIDI channel (1 to 16) can be set and stored in memory. 1. While holding the MIDI START/STOP button depressed, set the power switch to ON. ¶ The display will show [MIDI CH SETTING] and the unit will enter the MIDI setting mode. 2. Rotate the TIME dial to select the MIDI channel. 3. Press the MIDI START/STOP button. ¶ The selected MIDI channel will be recorded. 4. Set power to OFF.
