Halo Operation Manual 93 MIDI Menu Keyboard Outputs MIDI Keyboard Outputs MIDI This option allows you select whether or not the keyboard, pitch/mod wheel and footswitch data is transmitted on the MIDI output port. When this option is set to: "don't transmit", the keyboard, pitch/mod wheels, and footswitch only control the "current" preset. (The current preset is the one currently showing in the Main screen). The footswitch is transmitted on the MIDI CC number defined for Footswitch 1 in the Controllers menu. KEYBOARD OUTPUTS MIDI transmit Knobs Output MIDI This function allows you to select whether or not knob data is transmitted. The knobs transmit on the controller numbers defined by the Real-time Controller Assign parameter (See page 79). KNOBS OUTPUT MIDI don't transmit Transmit MIDI Clock This option enables or disables the transmission of MIDI clock from the MIDI out port. When Halo is running on its own internal clock (page 82) it transmits 24 MIDI clocks per quarter note. When Halo is slaved to an external MIDI clock, it mirrors the incoming clock data. TRANSMIT MIDI CLOCK off MIDI Enable MIDI Enable lets you turn each MIDI channel on and off independently when in Multi mode. This feature is helpful when you have other devices connected to the same MIDI line and do not want the Halo unit to respond to the MIDI channels reserved for the other devices. MIDI ENABLE channel 01: On 94 ENSONIQ MIDI Menu Receive Program Change Because the MIDI Enable function only makes sense if you are in Multi mode, Halo disables this feature when in Omni or Poly mode. In Multi Mode MIDI ENABLE channel 16: On MIDI ENABLE (using Omni mode) In Omni Mode Receive Program Change Use this function to instruct Halo to utilize or ignore incoming MIDI preset changes or Bank Select commands for each channel. Use the cursor buttons to select the channel number field, then use the data entry control to select a channel number. Use the cursor button again to select the On/Off field and the data entry control to change the value. RECEIVE PROGRAM CHANGE channel 01 : on MIDI Program Change -> Preset You can also remap incoming MIDI program changes to a different numbered preset. This is a handy feature when your master keyboard cannot send a bank change or you want to reorder preset numbers. Any preset can be mapped to any incoming MIDI program change number. For example, you could set up the Program -> Preset map to call up preset #12 whenever Halo receives MIDI program change #26. The four fields shown below are editable. The Program->Preset Change only works for program changes received in Bank 0. MIDI PROG CHNG 000 -> PRESET 0000 User Incoming Program Change in Bank 0 ROM Bank Program No. Bank No. Halo Operation Manual 95 MIDI Menu MIDI SysEx ID O Programs and presets are the same thing.

All other presets are selected normally. MIDI SysEx ID _ This page defines the MIDI system exclusive (SysEx) device ID number. The SysEx ID lets an external programming unit to distinguish between multiple Halo units connected to the same preset editor. In this case each unit must have a unique SysEx ID number. WARNING: When transferring SysEx data from one Halo to another, the ID numbers of both units must be the same. MIDI SYSEX ID 000 96 ENSONIQ MIDI Menu MIDI SysEx Packet Delay MIDI SysEx Packet Delay The MIDI SysEx Packet Delay command lets you specify the amount of delay between MIDI SysEx packets going out of Halo so that your computer sequencer can record this large chunk of data over a longer period of time. On playback from the sequencer, the SysEx data will be fed more slowly into Halo so that the its input buffer does not overflow, causing an error. Many sequencers allow you to "Time Stamp" SysEx data as it is recorded. [. . . ] · All other changes have no effect. SysEx Specification Halo contains an extensive set of MIDI SysEx commands. (Virtually every parameter is controllable via SysEx. ) Because of the size and technical nature of the System Exclusive specification, it is beyond the scope of this manual.
