MIDI control
External MIDI devices can now be operated from a
DM-3200, using MIDI Control Change messages and
MIDI Program Change messages using the MIDI con-
troller, MIDI fader, and MIDI Mixer screens.
Connection
Connect the MIDI IN and MIDI OUT ports of a
DM-3200 and the MIDI device bi-directionally.
You may also use these controllers as “send only”
as well by just connecting the MIDI OUT port of the
DM-3200 to the MIDI device.
Setting devices for MIDI control
Setting of the MIDI control setup is carried out on the
REMOTE>EXT.CTRL screen.
ªSelecting devices for MIDI control
The
EXTERNAL CONTROL LIST
on the left of the screen
is initially blank. To add external devices from the list
use the following procedure:
1 Turn the

knob or the

NOTE
To obtain more information regarding a
particular item in the list of devices that may
be controlled by the DM-3200, highlight the
item, move the cursor to the
INFO
button, and
press the
ENTER
key. A popup screen provides
information regarding the selected item.
Remote operation through MMC
DM-3200 Ver1.20 allows you to remotely operate the
transport functions of external devices through MMC
(MIDI Machine Control). Device control is carried out
through the MIDI IN/OUT port. The USB port cannot
be used for this purpose.
Selection of external devices for transport control is
done on the REMOTE/MACHINE CTRL screen. For
details, please see “Selecting devices for transport con
-
trol” on page 93 of the DM-3200 Owner’s Manual. As
a result of this additional function, the following infor
-
mation is added to “Table 8.3: Supported transport
machine control devices” on page 93. Some devices,
such as the Alesis HD-24, only support a limited range
of functions over MMC, and may not support closed
loop MMC control.

The MMC ID is set from the ID field on the Machine
CTRL screen, selectable between 1 and 127 using the
JOG/DATA
dial.
These numbers correspond to 0 through 126 in the
MMC protocol, so the controlled device may require
you to set an ID of 0 to match the ‘1’ on the DM-3200,
for example. The all-call ID number, 127 in the MMC
protocol, is not used by the DM-3200.
