MIDI Terminals

MIDI (Musical Instrument Digital Interface) is the standard specification that enables connection to equipment such as keyboards and personal computers. Data transmission and reception are possible between the Technics Synthesizer Keyboard and equipment provided with MIDI terminals.

- Use a 5-pin DIN cord (less than 15 m long) for these connections.

This keyboard can transmit or receive data for SOLO, POLY, BASS, ACCOMP, DRUMS and CONTROL parts.

The following kinds of data can be transmitted/received

■ Key note (keyboard on/off) data
■ Velocity data (AX3: receive only)
■ Pitch bend data
■ Control change data
- modulation
- balance
• main volume, expression pedal
- sustain
- portamento
- rhythm variation
• ending, fill in & intro
- chorus

■ Program change data (voice for each part, and DRUMS instrument)

■ Song select data (AX5/AX7)

■ Clock signal

■ Start/stop data

Setting MIDI functions

Here is an outline of the procedures for setting the various MIDI functions:

graph TD
    A["Enter the MIDI function-setting mode."] --> B["Set the functions for each part."]
    B --> C{Select the part.}
    C --> D["Repeat for each part."]
    D --> E["Set the functions common to all parts.<br>• MIDI CLOCK<br>• Song select<br>• START/STOP<br>• PITCH BEND<br>• MODULATION wheel<br>• BALANCE<br>• Main volume-Expression pedal<br>• PORTAMENTO<br>• Key note control (MIDI KEY ASSIGN, KEY NOTE ONLY, TRANSPOSE, AUTO PLAY CHORD, PANEL MEMORY)"]
    E --> F["Exit the MIDI function-setting mode."]

I. Enter the MIDI function-setting mode

1. Press the RECORD button. The indicator flashes.

1. Press the MODE SET button. The indicator flashes slowly.

II. Set the functions for each part

■ Select the part

1. Select the part whose functions you wish to set first with the left ⊕ and ⊖ buttons.

2. The indicator for the selected part will appear on the MUSICAL DISPLAY.

3. For the AX5/AX7, the SEQUENCER part buttons may also be used to select the part.
4. It is not necessary to set the functions for the CONTROL part, which is for transmitting/receiving MAIN VOLUME and expression pedal data. Basic channel 16 is automatically assigned for this part.

■ Basic channel

There are 16 basic channels (1—16) for MIDI signals. These channels must be matched with the appropriate parts for transmitting and receiving keyboard on/off, program change, chorus and other data.

1. Press the BASIC CH & TUNE button to turn it on and enter the basic channel setting mode.
2. On the AX3, press the MEMORY 1-8 button on, and then press the BASIC CH & TUNE button on.

1. Use the right ⊕ and ⊖ buttons to specify the basic channel for the selected part.

2. Channel 16 is reserved for the CONTROL part, so select from channels 1\~15.

3. The same basic channel cannot be assigned to two or more parts. If you selected a channel which has already been set, “--” is shown on the MUSICAL DISPLAY.

■ Program change, chorus, sustain

Whether or not data for these items are transmitted/received can be set.

1. Turn on the appropriate buttons if these data are to be transmitted/received. Turn off corresponding buttons if not.

(AX3)

AX3

On the AX3, the POLY/ACCOMP voice buttons (as shown in the above diagram) are used to set MIDI functions other than the basic channel. For example, to enable transmit/receive of

program change data, press the 1 button from the vertical buttons on the left and the 3 button from the horizontal buttons across the bottom to turn the function on.

■ Octave shift

Sound can be shifted up or down one or two octaves.

1. Set octave shift for MIDI OUT using the OCTAVE buttons.

2. Octave shift for MIDI OUT and MIDI IN are directly correlated. For example, if MIDI OUT is set at +1, the MIDI IN is automatically set at -1.

3. In the initial mode, the relationship between the keyboard and note numbers is as shown below.

■ Local control

There are four modes for distributing performances played on the keyboard and performances played back with the SEQUENCER to this instrument and to an external instrument.

These modes can be selected for each part of a performance.

Mode	Details
NORMAL	Notes from the keyboard and those generated by the SEQUENCER are sounded from both this instrument and the external instrument.	keyboard→this instrument external instrument
SEQUENCER TO EXT	Notes from the keyboard are sounded from this instrument, and those generated by the SEQUENCER are produced on the external instrument.	keyboard→this instrument external instrument
MANUAL TO EXT	Notes from the keyboard are produced on the external instrument, and those generated by the SEQUENCER are sounded from this instrument.	keyboard→this instrument external instrument
BOTH TO EXT	Notes from the keyboard and those generated by the SEQUENCER are both sounded from the external instrument.	keyboard→this instrument external instrument

1. Use the LOCAL CONTROL buttons to set to the desired mode.

(AX3)

(AX5/AX7)

Repeat procedures 3\~8 to set the MIDI functions for each of the other parts.

III. Set the functions common to all parts

■ Clock selection

Select the internal clock if this instrument's clock will be used to control the performance. Select the MIDI CLOCK if the external instrument's clock will be controlling the performance.

1. Set to the required clock mode using the MIDI CLOCK button.

2. When MIDI CLOCK is selected, the rhythm can only be started if the MIDI clock signals are received from the external equipment.

3. When the indicator is off, the internal clock is selected.
4. The internal clock is automatically selected when the POWER is turned off once, then on again.

POLY/ACCOMP

(AX3)

(AX5/AX7)

■ Song select (AX5/AX7), start/stop, velocity, pitch bend, modulation wheel, balance, main volume, expression pedal, portamento

Whether or not data for these items are transmitted/received can be set.

1. Turn on the appropriate buttons if these data are to be transmitted/received. Turn off corresponding buttons if not.
2. The on/off status of the EXPRESSION button determines the transmit/receive status for both expression data and main volume data.

(AX3)

(AX5/AX7)

■ Key note data transmit/receive

Set the input mode, the key note modes and whether or not the PANEL MEMORY is to be selected for the program change data.

MIDI KEY ASSIGN mode: Choose from two key assign modes for receiving key note data.

Key assign mode	Recognized key notes	CONDUCTOR	Application examples
SINGLE	POLY part only	Functions the same as when the Synthesizer Keyboard is played.	Use when an external instrument with touch response is played.
MULTI	All partsSOLO, POLY*, BASS, ACCOMP, DRUMS	Does not function.	Use for ensemble performance when each part is played independently.

* Up to four notes can sound at one time for this part.

KEY NOTE ONLY: When it is on, the data for program change and control change are not transmitted/received.

APC OUT: When it is on, the AUTO PLAY CHORD function produces an accomp pattern for the ACCOMP and BASS MIDI outputs.

TRANSPOSE OUT: When it is on, transposed keyboard notes are output for all parts.

PANEL MEMORY = P CHANGE (AX5/AX7): When it is on, the PANEL MEMORY is selected as the program change data for the POLY part.
