Figure 22-1: MIDI RX Channels.
The MIDI page of the Main Menu contains the following elements :
· Device Lists for TX MIDI Channel, RX MIDI Channel and TX MIDI Device ID.
· Global MIDI Receive Channel, On/Off and Global Receive MIDI Device ID
· Global MIDI Transmit Channel and On/Off switch.
· MIDI Timecode RX global On/Off switch and Frame Rate control.
· Display Timecode On/Off.
DEVICE LISTS
The Device Lists are mapping tables that display all available MIDI channels (16 for RX, 32 for TX), and
allows a user-dened name to be entered for each channel, corresponding to the connected device.
There is also a third table that allows 128 Device IDs (similar to MIDI channels but for MMC and MSC
messages) to be mapped to names.

Since each attached device is allocated its own MIDI channel or Device ID, this allows the user to see the
actual device name in the Cue List EDIT MIDI page, making the selection of the required device easier.
By default the Device Name elds are populated with the same text as in the MIDI Channel elds, ie
‘Channel 1’ – ‘Channel 16’ (for RX).
‘Channel 1 OUT1 – Channel 16 OUT1’ and
‘Channel 1 OUT2 – Channel 16 OUT2’ (for TX)
The settings of the Device names are stored with the Show and are global for the console (not individual
per-Cue).
