If your connection is good, the note played will be displayed in the Event Window. Once you have your MIDI In Event Window open, you can then test your physical connection by playing a note on your keyboard. Similar to “Data 1” except that where Data 1 will often identify a object (such as a note in the harmonic scale), Data 2 will define an action for that note such as on or off. Note that the Mx-Series console display is numeric from 0-127 while MIDI protocol is frequently shown as hexidecimal (00-FF). Each note in the MIDI protocol has a specific value assigned to it. As an example, if the message is “Note On” or “Note” off, Data 1 will display the value assigned to a specific note (such as C#). The meaning of these data messages changes depending upon the message type. This column identifies which channel the message came from.Įvery MIDI message consists of a minimum of two data bytes. Under this column, you will find what type of MIDI message has been received by the console such as “Note On,” “Note Off,” etc. The MIDI-In Event Viewer consists of four columns. Once done, add a macro to the cue and from the pull down list select “MIDIMacro.” When you have done this, you will see the “MIDI In Event Viewer.” This can easily be done by recording a “blank” cue (a cue when no information is in the Programmer) to an unused bank.

This is how the examples in this manual will be displayed. While MIDIMacros can easily be put into existing cuelists and can be very useful there, you may find it easier to manipulate MIDI control by using a separate cuelist or cuelists.

That is to say that the Mx-Series console does not generate MIDI messages, but does pass them along for processing by other MIDI equipment in the system. The A output port will send out only those messages that come in on the A input port. An incoming message on either port will be treated exactly the same.

Please note the Mx-Series console does not differentiate between a message on the A port and a message on the B port. Both the A input and B input will accept incoming MIDI messages. The in ports connect to the output from the MIDI generating device (synthesizer, PC, etc.). On the back of the Mx-Series console there is a MIDI A in and out port and a MIDI B in and out port. A basic understanding of MIDI and MIDI equipment is strongly advised and is beyond the scope of this document, although enough information will be given for basic MIDI operation. The Maxxyz implements MIDI commands through the use of macros.
