_ MIDI Links can only be used in Omni or Poly modes.
O On an Emulator Rack Unit, MIDI LInks can filter and re-transmit data received on the Basic MIDI Channel.
This allows any MIDI keyboard to become a powerful master controller.
Link Type
Links can be made to one or more internal presets or to one or more external MIDI devices.
MIDI Links allow your keyboard to control up to 16 external MIDI devices with multiple split points and layers. When a MIDI Link is selected, the preset field selects a MIDI program change which will be transmitted (on the selected MIDI channel) when the preset is first selected.
v To Change the Link Type:
1.Press the Preset Edit button. The LED illuminates and the last page selected appears.
2.Press the Links function key (F4) to select the link page of the editor. The link function key will be highlighted.
3.Use the Cursor buttons to select the “Link Type” field. If there are no Links in the preset, you can create one using the New Utility.
4.Set the “Type” parameter to internal or to external MIDI channel using the Data Entry Control or INC/DEC buttons.
5.Use the Cursor buttons to select other Link parameters.
6.Press the Exit button to return to the main preset selection screen.
Link Volume
This function allows you to adjust the volume of the linked preset relative to the main preset. When a MIDI Link is selected an initial volume message (Channel Volume - Controller 7) will be transmitted when the preset is selected.
The internal values of -96 to +10 are scaled to correspond to MIDI volume values. A value of +10 corresponds to MIDI Volume 127 and -96 corresponds to MIDI volume 0.
