Select the Internal setting when using the OASYS by
itself, or when you want the OASYS to be the master
(controlling device) so that another connected external
MIDI device will synchronize to the MIDI Clock
messages transmitted from the OASYS.
External MIDI: The KARMA function and internal
sequencer will operate in synchronization with MIDI
Clock messages from an external MIDI device
connected to the MIDI IN connector.
Auto: Normally the operation will be the same as the
Internal setting. If external MIDI Clock messages are
received from the MIDI IN connector, the OASYS will
automatically switch to the same operation as External
MIDI.
Note: If you select Auto when an external MIDI
sequencer is connected, the OASYS will automatically
switch to Internal operation if the external MIDI
sequencer is not transmitting MIDI Clock messages,
allowing the KARMA Modules to operate and
parameters for which MIDI/Tempo Sync is turned on
to function.
Note: If after receiving a MIDI Clock, Start, or Continue
message from the MIDI IN connector, no new MIDI
Clock message is received within an interval of 500 ms,
or if you start the OASYS’s sequencer from the front
panel without having received a MIDI Clock, Start, or
Continue message from the MIDI IN connector, the
OASYS will automatically switch to Internal operation.
Receive Ext. Realtime Commands [Off, On]
Off (unchecked): Even if “MIDI Clock” is set to
External MIDI, or if set to Auto and the OASYS is
synchronized to external MIDI Clock messages, MIDI
Common messages and Realtime messages (Song
Position Pointer, Start, Continue, Stop) will not be
received. (Song Select messages will be received.)
Note: Use this setting if the above messages from an
external MIDI sequencer are unnecessarily resetting
the OASYS’s song settings.
On (checked): The above Common messages
(including Song Select) and Realtime messages will be
received.
This parameter cannot be set if “MIDI Clock” is
Internal.
1–1b: MIDI Routing Setup
Vector MIDI Out [Vector Joystick,
Vector CC Control]
This setting specifies the MIDI output generated by
vector joystick operations or vector envelope.
Vector Joystick: When you move the vector joystick,
the two MIDI control change messages specified by
VECTOR “VJS X” and “VJS Y” (2–1c) will be
transmitted. By default, “VJS X” is CC#118 and “VJS
Y” is CC#119.
Normally you will use the Vector Joystick setting. In
this case, the vector envelope will not generate MIDI
output. Use this setting if you want to control an
external MIDI device by moving the vector joystick, or
to record vector joystick movements on the internal
sequencer or an external sequencer.
Vector CC Control: The OASYS will transmit the MIDI
control change messages specified by the Vector CC
Control “+X,” “–X,” “+Y,” and “–Y” settings in each
program, combination, or song. Use this setting if you
want vector joystick operations or the vector envelope
to transmit MIDI control change messages.
Normally you will use this to control the internal tone
generator or effects, but you can also use it to transmit
messages to an external MIDI device, or to record these
movements on the internal sequencer or an external
sequencer.
Pads MIDI Out [Pad CC/Note, Chord Notes]
This setting specifies the MIDI messages that are
output when you strike a pad.
Pad CC/Note: When you strike a pad, the MIDI note
number or MIDI control change message specified by
the Pad “Pad1”–“Pad8” (2–1c) setting will be
transmitted.
If the setting is off, no MIDI message will be
transmitted.
