MIDI-relevant setup settings
179
• SysXDeviceID: Defines the device identification
for system exclusive MIDI messages.
Hexadecimal values range from 00 to 7F.
MIDI-relevant setup settings
• MIDI: Determines MIDI data send and receive
channel for sounds in setup mode.
A sound responds to incoming MIDI data only
when the defined MIDI 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 sound mode, the global MIDI channel
settings defined in the basic settings apply (see
page 178).
• 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 for
this sound so that it cannot control the internal
synthesis engine; the controls are deactivated.
However, the sound can be played via incoming
MIDI data and send MIDI data.
Local = On: The internal synthesis engine can be
controlled for this sound via Neuron’s keyboard
as well as via incoming MIDI data. All controls
are enabled.
Note in this context the function of the local
basic settings parameter (see page 178): If this
global parameter local is set to off, the settings
of the four setup parameters of the same name
are overruled.
SysEx commands (System exclusive data)
SysEx commands are channel-independent MIDI
messages, meaning that the information conveyed
therein apply to the entire MIDI device. This data is
called "exclusive" because it cannot be interpreted by
any other device type; it is in a language only Neuron
can speak.
For this reason, SysEx commands require special
identification. Called a SysEx device ID, you can
define it via the basic settings parameters
SysXDeviceID. The value range for the ID is 00 to 7F.
A value of 7F denotes omni, meaning that Neuron
accepts incoming SysEx commands with any SysEx
device ID. This setting is recommended if you
encounter problems during data transfer.
