MIDI-relevant basic settings
MIDI control
The illustration on page 12 shows how to use
Neuron’s MIDI connections to configure a MIDI set-
up.
MIDI-relevant basic settings
To access the basic settings, press the basic settings
button located below the main display. Scroll to the
desired parameter using the navigation stick.
• MIDI Glb Ch: Determines the global send and
receive channel for MIDI data (MIDI global
channel) for sound mode. In sound mode,
Neuron responds to incoming MIDI data only
when the defined MIDI global channel and send
channel numbers are identical.
Value range: 0 to 16. 0 denotes omni, meaning
that Neuron processes incoming messages on
all MIDI channels.
In setup mode, the individual sound-related
MIDI channel settings in the setup menu apply
- see page 61.
• Local: Deactivates/activates Neuron’s synthesis
engine via the keyboard as well as via controls
1 to 4, the footswitch, the sustain pedal and
aftertouch.
Local = Off: Neuron’s keyboard is disabled. It
cannot address the internal synthesis engine;
all controls are deactivated. Neuron can play
incoming MIDI data or serve as a MIDI master
keyboard.
Local = On: The internal synthesis engine can be
controlled using Neuron’s keyboard as well as
via incoming MIDI data; Neuron can also serve
as a master keyboard. All controls (see above)
are enabled.
Note in this context the function of the local
setup parameter, which serves the same
purpose for every sound within a setup (see
page 61). If the global local parameter is set to
off, the setup parameters of the same name are
overruled, meaning that all four sounds are off
regardless of the respective local parameter
setting.
Unlike many other synthesizers, Neuron has no
sound banks because the 1,000 potential sounds
are archived sequentially. For purposes of MIDI
addressing, consider sounds 0 to 99 to be a "virtual"
first bank, sounds 100 to 199 a second bank, and so
forth.
