4. Moving Slider A upwards gives this display:
Preset ch OK: yes
Press Y/N
MIDI also carries patch change information from one synthesizer to another. Press YES
if you want the Emulator II to respond to this information (or to change presets in other
synthesizers from the Emulator II), and NO if you want to select Presets on the Emulator
independently of other MIDI instruments.
Note: There is no consistency between manufacturers regarding what patch will occur
on “slave” synthesizers when a particular patch is selected on the “master” synthesizer.
5. Moving Slider A upwards gives the following display:
Local Cntl: yes
Press Y/N
With Local Control at the default setting of YES, the Emulator II keyboard controls the
Emulator II and MIDI carries information on which keys are being played. Press NO to
“disconnect” the Emulator II from its keyboard, but still have MIDI carry information on
which keys are being played.
6. Moving Slider A upwards gives the next option:
Transmit Reset
Press Yes
MIDI has a command that resets all MIDI instruments to their power-on (default) setting.
Pressing YES sends this reset command out to other MIDI instruments.
Note: The Emulator II cannot receive reset commands since in its power-on condition,
the bank is empty and a disk needs to be booted. Therefore, if reset it would not be able
to make any sound until a disk was booted.
