17. MIDI
Not implemented at writing of manual – Text below can change.
17.1 OVERVIEW
The midi interface is available on DOMINO models with the U option (USB interface).
17.2 MIDI NOTES
The MIDI interface is turned on and off via the setup menu. The menu also allows the user to
select whether the DOMINO will transmit MIDI commands when its buttons are pushed.
The on/off status of the MIDI function is shown below the Bank Master display in the bottom
rhs of the video screen.
MIDI is implemented across 3 MIDI channels. Buttons are mapped to these MIDI channels.
Each group of buttons is mapped to a MIDI channel as shown below. The individual buttons
are represented by MIDI notes with MIDI note on and note off commands pushing and
releasing the DOMINO buttons.
MIDI CHAN MAXIM BUTTON GROUP NOTE ON/OFF PITCH BENDER
1 Control buttons (see tab2) Y Y (encoder up/dwn)
2 Bank A Solo Assign buttons Y (N/A in XTC) N
3 Bank B Solo Assign Buttons Y N
The first active MIDI note in each channel is note 48 (C below middle C). This note maps to
the left most button in each of the DOMINO button groups. The exception to this is the
DOMINO control button group which is mapped as shown in the table below.
The pitch bender MIDI command maps into encoder wheel movements on the DOMINO.
Raising the pitch increases the encoder wheel values, lowering the pitch decreases the
encoder. Only the most significant byte of the pitch bender MIDI command alters the encoder
value.
If the MIDI transmit-function is selected on the DOMINO then corresponding note on/off
commands are transmitted from the DOMINO when its buttons are pushed and released.
Encoder movements are not transmitted as yet.
