MIDI FUNCTIONS AND IMPLEMENTATION
MIDI SYSTEM REAL TIME MESSAGES
MIDI CLOCK MESSAGES: When the Mother-32 detects a MIDI Clock signal, the Tempo LED blinks
green at the detected tempo and the panel TEMPO control becomes a clock divider. After MIDI clock
messages cease to be received, the internal clock can be restarted by pressing the RUN/STOP button.
MIDI START: A MIDI Start message runs the pattern from Step 1.
MIDI STOP: A MIDI Stop message stops the pattern on the last active step.
MIDI CONTINUE: A MIDI Continue message will start the pattern on the next active step.
SETUP MODE
