Connecting the C-190 to MIDI devices

C-190 Portable Organ
■Note messages
The C-190 transmits and receives note messages that
translate which keys you pressed on the keyboard.
■Program change, bank select messages
In ORCHESTRA mode, pressing a tab to select the
desired sound will cause the C-190 to send two bank
numbers (Bank Select MSB & LSB) as well as a pro-
gram change number. When receiving such a cluster,
the C-190 selects the corresponding sound.
The following numbers are recognized.
■Control changes
In ORCHESTRA mode, the C-190 transmits and
receives CC64 messages that describe when an
optional sustain footswitch (connected to the EXP/
SUS socket) is pressed and released. Furthermore, the
C-190 sends and receives CC11 messages that
describe the movements of an optional expression
pedal.
Other control changes that the C-190 transmits are
CC91 to communicate the reverb depth setting (see
p. 16).
Note: See also the MIDI implementation chart at the end of
this manual.
■SysEx messages
The C-190 also transmits SysEx messages that have a
rather complex structure and are thus only meaning-
ful to seasoned MIDI enthusiasts. If you work with
the internal recorder or an external sequencer, it
may, however, be possible to record them without
even knowing what they look like. See your
sequencer’s manual for details.
If the external sequencer accepts SysEx messages,
you can even record the settings of the PEDAL, MAN-
UAL I and MANUAL II tabs, and transmit those data
back to the C-190 for real-time automation.
SysEx messages are sent and received when the tilt
tabs are operated while the [ORCHESTRA] button is
dark.
