MIDI data format MIDI data format 1. Functions 1.1. Scene Change The settings of the [MIDI PROGRAM CHANGE TABLE] specify the scene that is recalled when a Program Change message is received. The settings of the [MIDI PROGRAM CHANGE TABLE] specify the program number that is transmitted when a scene is recalled. If more than one program number has been assigned to that scene memory number, the lowest-numbered program number will be transmitted. 1.2. MMC Control These messages allow basic recorder operations such as STOP/ PLAY/REC/LOCATE. If you select the MIDI SETUP menu item MMC MASTER, MMC commands will be transmitted according to the operation of the transport. If you select MMC SLAVE, the internal recorder will operate according to the received MMC commands. 1.3. Effect Control Depending on the type of effect, note-on/off messages can be used for control. These settings are made for the parameters of each effect. 1.4. Pitch Fix Control When the Pitch Fix mode is engaged, note-on/off messages can be used to control pitches. 1.5. MIDI Clock transmission If you set MIDI OUT to MIDI CLOCK, MIDI clock messages can be transmitted during playback or recording. In MIDI Clock transmission mode, Song Position Pointer and Start/ Stop/Continue commands will also be issued, and during playback or recording, MIDI Clock will be transmitted according to the MIDI Tempo Map. 1.6. MTC transmission (MTC Master) If you set MIDI OUT to MTC, MTC can be transmitted during playback or recording. 1.7. MTC reception (MTC Slave) If you set MTC MODE to SLAVE, the internal recorder will operate in synchronization with MTC messages received from the MIDI IN connector. 1.8. Realtime control of parameters Control changes can be used to send/receive internal parameters in realtime. 1.9. MIDI Remote The faders, SEL keys, and RTZ / FF / REW / STOP / PLAY / REC keys can be used to control an external MIDI device. In PRESET mode, operating the above controllers will transmit MIDI data according to the preset settings of the AW1600. In USER mode, operating the above controllers will transmit the MIDI data that you specify. 2.

1. Functions

1.1. Scene Change

The settings of the [MIDI PROGRAM CHANGE TABLE] specify

the scene that is recalled when a Program Change message is

received.

The settings of the [MIDI PROGRAM CHANGE TABLE] specify

the program number that is transmitted when a scene is recalled. If

more than one program number has been assigned to that scene

memory number, the lowest-numbered program number will be

transmitted.

1.2. MMC Control

These messages allow basic recorder operations such as STOP/

PLAY/REC/LOCATE.

If you select the MIDI SETUP menu item MMC MASTER, MMC

commands will be transmitted according to the operation of the

transport. If you select MMC SLAVE, the internal recorder will oper-

ate according to the received MMC commands.

1.3. Effect Control

Depending on the type of effect, note-on/off messages can be used

for control.

These settings are made for the parameters of each effect.

1.4. Pitch Fix Control

When the Pitch Fix mode is engaged, note-on/off messages can be

used to control pitches.

1.5. MIDI Clock transmission

If you set MIDI OUT to MIDI CLOCK, MIDI clock messages can be

transmitted during playback or recording.

In MIDI Clock transmission mode, Song Position Pointer and Start/

Stop/Continue commands will also be issued, and during playback or

recording, MIDI Clock will be transmitted according to the MIDI

Tempo Map.

1.6. MTC transmission (MTC Master)

If you set MIDI OUT to MTC, MTC can be transmitted during play-

back or recording.

1.7. MTC reception (MTC Slave)

If you set MTC MODE to SLAVE, the internal recorder will operate

in synchronization with MTC messages received from the MIDI IN

connector.

1.8. Realtime control of parameters

Control changes can be used to send/receive internal parameters in

realtime.

1.9. MIDI Remote

The faders, SEL keys, and RTZ / FF / REW / STOP / PLAY / REC

keys can be used to control an external MIDI device.

In PRESET mode, operating the above controllers will transmit

MIDI data according to the preset settings of the AW1600.

In USER mode, operating the above controllers will transmit the

MIDI data that you specify.
