page 643.
• In Combination P0: Play, program change and bank
select messages are transmitted/received on the
global MIDI channel. They are not received in P1–
P9.
Note: All program changes can be turned off in MIDI
Filter (Global 1–1c)
As needed, you can independently turn all program
changes on/off, specify whether or not incoming
messages will be able to change combinations, and
turn reception/transmission of bank select messages
on/off.
• If “Enable Combination Change” (Global 1–1c) is
unchecked, the combination will not change even if
a program change on the global MIDI channel is
received in Combination P0: Play. In this case, the
program of the timbre that matches the MIDI
channel of the received message will change.
• If “Enable Bank Change” (Global 1–1c) is
unchecked, bank select messages will not be
transmitted or received.
After touch
Channel aftertouch [Dn, vv]
(n: channel, vv: value)
When you apply pressure to the keyboard after
playing a note, an after touch effect will be applied,
and Channel After Touch messages will be
transmitted. When these messages are received, an
after touch effect will be applied.
• After touch for the entire instrument can be turned
on/off in “Enable After Touch” (Global 1–1c).
• In Combination and Sequencer modes, after touch
can be switched on/off independently for each
timbre/track (“Enable After Touch” Combination
3–1a, Sequencer 3–1a).
Polyphonic aftertouch [An, kk, vv]
(n: channel, kk: note number, vv: value)
There is another type of after touch called Polyphonic
Key Pressure, which allows after touch to be applied
independently for individual keys. This message can
be used as an alternate modulation source, but cannot
be transmitted by the OASYS’s keyboard. In order to
use this message, it will have to be received from an
external device, or recorded on your sequencer.
The after touch mentioned in this manual refers to
Channel After Touch.
Pitch bend
Pitch bend change [En, bb, mm]
(n: channel, bb: lower byte of the value, mm: upper
byte of the value, together expressing a value of 16,384
steps where 8,192 [bb, mm = 00H, 40H] is the center
value)
When the OASYS’s joystick is moved in the X axis
(left/right), a pitch bend effect will be applied, and
pitch bender messages will also be transmitted. When
these messages are received, a pitch bend effect will be
applied.
The range of pitch change that is produced by pitch
bend messages can also be adjusted via MIDI. (See
“Changing the pitch bend range” on page 1009.)
Control change
[Bn, cc, vv]
Transmitted and received as (n: channel, cc: control
change no., vv: value)
For more information, see “Dynamic MIDI Sources &
Destinations” on page 984, “MIDI transmission when
the OASYS’s controllers are operated” on page 991,
and “OASYS and MIDI CCs” on page 995
• Control changes can be turned on/off as a whole in
“Enable Control Change” (Global 1–1c).
• In Combination and Sequencer modes, the P3:
MIDI Filter settings allow transmission/reception
of control changes to be individually turned on/off
for each timbre/track. For the assignable controllers
(SW1, SW2, REALTIME KNOBS 1–8, Foot
Pedal/Switch), MIDI filter settings will apply to the
control change number to which each controller is
assigned. “Other Control Change” applies to
control changes that are not covered by the items of
the other check boxes.
Note: You can select MIDI CC#00–CC#119 for
“REALTIME KNOBS 5–8” and for “vector joystick CC
control.”
Although you can select MIDI CC#00–CC#119 for the
KARMA controllers and the vector joystick, you will
normally use the default settings that are assigned
when you execute the page menu command “Reset
Controller MIDI Assign” with Default Setting, and
leave KARMA Controllers turned Off, vector joystick
“VJS X” at CC#118, and “VJS Y” at CC#119.
If you assign a CC# to KARMA controllers, use the
same CC#s as when “Reset Controller MIDI Assign” is
executed with the CC Default setting.
Selecting program/combination banks
Bank select (CC#00, CC#32)
Technically, Bank Select is a controller. In practice,
however, it is a component of Program Change. For
more information, see “Program Change/Bank Select”
on page 1003)
Using the joystick to apply modulation
Modulation 1 depth (CC#01) [Bn, 01, vv]
When you move the OASYS’s joystick in the +Y
direction (Vertical upward), Modulation 1 Depth
messages will be transmitted. When these messages
are received, the same effect will be applied as when
the OASYS’s joystick is operated. Normally this will
apply a vibrato effect (pitch LFO).
