INSTRUCTIONS FOR MIDI INTERFACE
YAMAHA CS-70
USING THE MIDI INTERFACE - - -
When you turn on the synthesiser for the first time, you will be in
omni-on mode for receive (all channels)
will also set omni-off. See next page for factory default settings.
When you select a receive channel, this will be stored in memory and
will be remembered for when you subsequently turn on the synth - all
parameters listed on the next page are stored.
If you want to put the machine back to the factory default settings
at any time, switch the synth on whilst holding the red push button
pressed - hold for a couple of seconds then release.
RED PUSH BUTTON
Two modes are available by pushing the red push button.
1) SET-UP MODE - Setting MIDI channels and assignments.
Give the red push button one short press (half a second) - then release.
Follow this with a note or sequence of notes (on remote synth) as given
on page 2. After selecting a channel you will be automatically returned
to playing mode but after making assignments you will need to press the
ENTER key (Top C) to return to playing mode. This is to enable you to
make the multiple key presses required when re-assigning sources to
destinations.
2) TRANSPOSE MODE -
Press and hold the red push button for four seconds - then release.
Middle C will sound on the synth and continue to sound until you
press a key (on the remote synth). The note that you press will be the
new middle C for MIDI IN. You can set any value up to two octaves up or
down. Settings outside this range will be ignored. Note that transpose
mode cannot be entered from program mode. [Transpose is not stored]
