ENGLISH
A GEM WS disk can contain Style file, each of which can
hold up to 32 Prog.Styles. GEM WS Prog.Styles are similar,
even if not exactly identical, to the CD30 Prog. Styles (88-
95).
The CD30 can only load 8 of the 32 Styles contained in a
GEM WS file. Search is carried out in sequence in Styles
from 1 to 8, then from 17 to 24. The CD30 always reads the
first 8 Styles it finds:
1-8 9-16
17-24 25-32

be necessary to set the track Program Changes manually
using the EDIT function.

Dynamic level conversion (“WS Dynamic Level” function)
For every note, MIDI instruments transmit, receive or record
the dynamic value (or Velocity). The dynamic is the intensity
with which the note was played. Its value can range between
1 (lowest intensity) and 127 (highest intensity).
Since the GEM WS dynamic is different to that of the CD30,
it may be necessary to edit the dynamics of the Song Pat-
terns and Prog.Styles loaded from GEM WS disks. If this is
not done, the tracks loaded may sound “too soft”, owing to
these different dynamics.
The “WS Dynamic Level” function in the DISK acts as a filter
for GEM WS data. You may find it necessary to program this
function before loading a Song Pattern or a Prog.Style file.
1. Press [DISK] to enter the DISK mode.
2. Find the “Dynamic Level” page using [PAGE>]:
3. Use the [PAGE] buttons to move backwards and forwards
between the track and assigned value.
4. Select the track and the “Level” value assigned using the
[TEMPO-DATA] buttons.
Four dynamic levels are available (Level 1 is selected by
default):
- Original: the same dynamic value as the GEM WS;
- Level 1: values from 64 to 127 (lower values are raised
to 64);
- Level 2: values from 96 to 127 (lower values are raised
to 96);
- Level 3: all dynamics set to 127.
5. Exit the DISK mode using the [ESC] buttons. The settings
remain in memory even when the instrument has been
switched off.
Reading Midi Files
Midi Files are particular files which allow the CD30 to read
from disk Songs which have been created using computers
or other musical instruments which incorporate sequencers.
Songs in Midi file format are so widespread that can be found
freely available in retail outlets.
How to create a Midi File with a sequencer
Normally, sequencers or musical instruments save Songs in
their exclusive format, which does not permit the exchange
of data with other instruments. Fortunately, almost all com-
puter based sequencers and certain musical instruments can
also save Songs in the exchangeable ‘Midi File’ format.
Copy the Midi Files onto a 720 kb disk formatted in Ms-Dos
