Chapter 17
MIDI
This chapter explains how MIDI messages can be transmitted from an exter-
nal device to control the M7CL’s parameters, and conversely how operations
on the M7CL can be transmitted as MIDI messages.
The M7CL can use MIDI to perform the following operations.
●
Program Change transmission and reception
When you execute a specific event (scene/effect library recall) on the M7CL, a program change message of the correspond-
ing number can be transmitted to an external device. Conversely, the corresponding event can be executed when a program
change message is received from an external device.
●
Control Change transmission and reception
When you execute a specific event (fader/encoder or key operation) on the M7CL, the corresponding control change mes-
sage can be transmitted to an external device. Conversely, events can be executed when control change messages are
received from an external device. This allows you to record fader and key operations on a MIDI sequencer or other external
device, and play them back later.
●
Parameter change (SysEx) transmission and reception
When specific events (fader/encoder or key operations, changes in system settings or user settings) are executed, “parameter
change” system exclusive messages can be transmitted to an external device. Conversely, events can be executed when
parameter changes are received from an external device.
Using this capability, M7CL operations can be recorded and played back on a MIDI sequencer or other external device, or
changes in system settings and user settings can be reflected on another M7CL console.
MIDI functionality on the M7CL
• The port used for transmission and reception of MIDI messages can be selected from the rear panel MIDI
IN/OUT connectors, the rear panel REMOTE connector, or an I/O card installed in a slot 1–3. All of the
above functionality will be common to the selected port.
