PF-1000
MIDI channels
MIDI performance data is assigned to one of sixteen
MIDI channels. Using these channels, 1 - 16, the
performance data for sixteen different instrument parts
can be simultaneously sent over one MIDI cable.
Think of the MIDI channels as TV channels. Each TV
station transmits its broadcasts over a specific
channel.Your home TV set receives many different
programs simultaneously from several TV stations and
you select the appropriate channel to watch the desired
program.
MIDI operates on the same basic principle. The
transmitting instrument sends MIDI data on a specific
MIDI channel (MIDI Transmit Channel) via a single
MIDI cable to the receiving instrument. If the receiving
instrument’s MIDI channel (MIDI Receive Channel)
matches the Transmit Channel, the receiving instrument
will sound according to the data sent by the
transmitting instrument.
For example, several tracks (channels) can be
transmitted simultaneously, including the style data (as
shown below).
Example: Recording the auto accompaniment of the PF-1000 to an
external sequencer
As you can see, it is essential to determine which data
is to be sent over which MIDI channel when
transmitting MIDI data (page 135). The PF-1000 also
allows you to determine how the received data is
played back. (page 136).
System Messages
This is data that is used in common by the entire MIDI
system. System messages include messages like Exclusive
Messages that transmit data unique to each instrument
manufacturer and Realtime Messages that control the
MIDI device.
The messages transmitted/received by the PF-1000 are
shown in the MIDI Data Format and MIDI
Implementation Chart in the separate Data List.
What You Can Do With MIDI
The following MIDI settings can be made on the PF-
1000:
MIDI templates (preset MIDI setups for various
applications) (page 134)
Transmit (page 135)
Receive (page 136)
Local Control (page 134)
Clock (page 135)
Record performance data (1-16 channels) using the
PF-1000 Auto Accompaniment features on a external
sequencer (such as a personal computer). After
recording, edit the data with the sequencer, then play
it again on the PF-1000 (playback).
When you want to use the PF-1000 as an XG-compatible
multi-timbral tone generator, set the receive part for MIDI
channels 1 to 16 to “SONG” in MIDI Receive (page 136).
Play and control the PF-1000 from a separate
