Backing Module BK-7m
7. Wizard Connection
Your BK-7m contains a “Wizard Connection” that tells you step by step how to set up the BK-7m for MIDI communica-
tion. This wizard saves you a lot of time, which is why we recommend using it each time you connect a different MIDI
device to the BK-7m.
Generic procedure
1.
Perform all required connections, taking
care to also connect a MIDI cable.
See “Connecting the BK-7m to an amplifier, mixer,
etc.” on p. 15 and “Connecting a MIDI device” on
p. 16.
NOTE
If you want to work with a Roland digital piano, we recom-
mend also connecting the BK-7m’s MIDI OUT socket to the
digital piano’s MIDI IN socket. That way, your Roland piano
is automatically set to “Local Off”, which is usually more
convenient.
2.
Press the BK-7m’s [POWER] switch.
Wait until the main page appears.
3.
Power on the external MIDI device (Digital
piano, V-Accordion, etc.).
If the MIDI connection between the external MIDI
device’s MIDI OUT socket and the BK-7m’s MIDI IN
socket is correct, a “MIDI Device Connected” page
appears to signal that the BK-7m has detected a MIDI
instrument.
4.
Press the [CURSOR÷VALUE] dial to select the
“Wizard Connection” function.
Press the [EXIT] button if you don’t need the “Wizard
Connection” function. In that case, the BK-7m goes
on using the last configuration you selected. If you
do not make any settings, this display page disap-
pears automatically after 5 seconds.
5.
Rotate the [CURSOR÷VALUE] dial to select an
instrument category, then press the dial.
The following categories are available:
6.
Depending on the category you select, the
Wizard now asks you a series of questions.
Please follow the instructions shown in the display.
See “Details about the ‘Wizard Connection’ catego-
ries” on p. 23.
7.
At the end of the selected procedure, the
BK-7m asks you to save the settings.
8.
Press the [CURSOR÷VALUE] dial to save your
settings.
The display briefly confirms the operation and then
returns to the main page.
Usually, when you connect an external instrument
to the BK-7m’s MIDI IN socket, a display page
appears to signal that the “Wizard Connection”
function has detected a MIDI instrument and can
be used to make the desired MIDI settings.
If that message is not displayed, the external
instrument probably doesn’t transmit Active Sens-
ing (FEH) messages. To start the BK-7m’s “Wizard
Connection” function, simply press any key on the
external instrument’s keyboard. Alternatively, you
can select the “Wizard Connection” function by
hand: [MENU] button ‰ “Wizard Connection”.
