tor stops flashing) to return to the JM-5’s

MIDI Sets
MIDI Sets are memories for MIDI settings. The JM-5 pro-
vides eight MIDI Set memories that you can use to store
and load various MIDI configurations. These are called
“User1”~“User8”.
The “Song Parts” and “Tone Parts” settings are also MIDI
Sets, however, they are preset and cannot be changed.
NOTE
The settings of the last “User” memory you saved will be
loaded each time the JM-5 is switched on.

Tx Velocity On,1~127 The Song Parts usually
transmit velocity mes-
sages when you acti-
vate them for MIDI
playback (see p. 65).
This parameter
switches the transmis-
sion (TX) of velocity
messages on or off. If
you don’t want to use
“On”, specify which
velocity value to use
instead of the continu-
ous flux. This value will
be used for all notes
sent to MIDI (hence
“Tx”).
Tx Sysex Off, On Use this parameter to
specify whether the
JM-5 should send
SysEx messages.
Tx Data Change Off, On This parameter allows
you to specify how the
original program
changes of the songs
you play back are
transmitted via MIDI.
The JM-5 may change
sound addresses (usu-
ally CC00 and CC32
values). If you switch
this parameter on,
such transformations
are also transmitted
via MIDI.
If you switch this
parameter off, the
original sound
addresses are trans-
mitted to the receiv-
ing device. (But the
JM-5’s tone generator
continues to “enhance”
the songs you play
back.)
