Backing Keyboard BK-5 OR
In “Absolute” mode, however, the MIDI note numbers
sent to other instruments will be the ones of the keys
you actually press.
Rx Velocity
Your BK-5 is equipped with a velocity-sensitive key-
board and a tone generator capable of responding to
velocity messages. This parameter allows you to
switch the reception (RX) of velocity messages on or
off. If you don’t need “On”, specify which velocity
value to use instead of the continuous flux. This value
will be used for all notes received via MIDI..
Rx SySex
Use this parameter to specify whether the BK-5 OR
should receive SysEx messages from other devices.
Rx Transpose
Use this parameter to specify whether or not the
BK-5 OR should transpose the MIDI note messages it
receives.
Soft Thru
Select “On” if the BK-5 OR should transmit all MIDI
messages it receives (using its MIDI OUT socket).
Visual Control TxCh
This parameter allows you to set the MIDI transmit
channel for the Visual Control function. (The BK-5 OR
does not receive Visual Control messages.) By default,
this channel is set to 16.
Save MIDI Set
This function allows you to save your changes to a
“User” memory for quick recall.
This function can be selected using the [WRITE] button
while the “MIDI” page is displayed.
1.
Edit the desired MIDI parameters (“Edit
Rhythm Parts”, “Edit Song Parts”, “Edit Tone
Parts”, “Edit System”).
2.
Press the [WRITE] button.
The display changes to:
3.
Rotate the [CURSOR÷VALUE] dial to select
the MIDI Set where you want to save your
settings (“User1”~ “User8”).
4.
Press the [ENTER/SELECT] button to confirm.
A confirmation message informs you that the MIDI
Set has been saved.
If you change the MIDI settings after loading a “User”
set, the BK-5 OR alerts you to the fact that you may
need to save the MIDI Set again (provided, you want
to keep your changes):
