MIDI KEYBOARD CMK-2 TROUBLESHOOTING MANUAL v1.5
CMK-2 Manual 1.5.doc 2009 CLASSIC ORGAN WORKS 71
Matrix wiring groups the keys into an 8x8 matrix. Think of it like a checker board with 8 squares on each side. To find
the address of any square, there is a row and a column that is unique to that square. The result gives you 16 wires out (8
for each side of the matrix) instead of 62.
It sounds like you will be using a parallel scanner. You will need one scanner for each keyboard or pedalboard.
Since the pedalboard will only use up to 32 of the inputs, you can use the leftover inputs for pistons, tabs or toe studs if
you are going to use Hauptwerk.
How do I configure the swell shoes to work with Hauptwerk?
If you have the swell shoes plugged into the pedalboard, you need to configure them via the pedalboard. See pg. 8 in the
pedalboard manual.
Shoes are considered "Analog Inputs". You need to set the output of the shoes to the appropriate channel, AND message
before you will see any output data. See the output to send a volume control change (control message 07).
If you have the shoes plugged into the keyboards themselves, then you can use the CMK Config software to configure
them.
If you are using a PC you can check the output from your MIDI gear by installing MIDI Medic from the Classic Organ
Works CD.
If you are using a Mac, you can download MIDI Monitor from the internet. It is free and does mostly the same things.
If you get the correct data coming out of the MIDI gear (confirmed by MIDI medic) and then it doesn't work in
Hauptwerk, then it is a Hauptwerk config issue.
Here are some Typical Swell Shoe sequences:
Note:
After Pressing the programming push-button you have about 10-15 seconds to complete each sequence.
You need to press the push-button to start programming each sequence as well.
You will not see the MIDI data from any analog input until both the channel and the control message sequences have
been completed for that analog input.

Classic Organ Works has a free MIDI diagnosis program named MIDI Medic. This will let you see the
content of any MIDI message to check its parameters. You can also send messages to test the MIDI
devices. Just download it from the website:
