MIDI Tx/Rx
The BK-3 has 6 MIDI preset settings. All you need to do is to select
the MIDI preset to your need.
Parameter Setting
MIDI Tx/Rx Kbd, Rhythm, Kbd/Rhythm, Song, PK Series, O
NOTE
This parameter applies to both reception (RX) and transmission
(TX).
• “Kbd”: This option recalls the MIDI settings for the keyboard
parts (UPP, LWR, MELODY INT)
• “Rhythm”: This option recalls the MIDI settings for the rhythm
parts (Drum, Bass, Accomp. 1~6).
• “Kbd/Rhythm” (Default): This option recalls the MIDI settings
for the keyboard parts (UPP, LWR, MELODY INT) and the rhythm
parts (Drum, Bass, Accomp. 1~6). The most important (and
practical) use for this eld is resetting the MIDI transmit/receive
channels of the real-time and rhythm parts and to switch o
MIDI transmission/reception of the song parts.
• “PK Series”: This option prepares the BK-3 for MIDI control using
a PK-series MIDI pedalboard.
• “Song”: This option recall the settings for the BK-3’s SMF song
parts and switches o the MIDI transmission and reception of
the real-time and rhythm parts.
• “O”: The MIDI transmission and reception are disabled.
Sync Rx
This parameter is used to specify whether rhythm and song
playback should be synchronized by an external MIDI device.
Parameter Setting
Sync Rx O, On (Default setting: On)
• “O”: In this case, the BK-3 is not synchronized with other MIDI
devices. It is thus impossible to start/stop it via MIDI.
• “On”: Rhythm playback and Song playback are synchronized
if the BK-3 receives MIDI Start and Stop messages followed by
MIDI Clock signals. If the BK-3 receives only a Start message, it
will wait a moment to see if there are also MIDI Clock messages
coming. If there are, it will synchronize to them. If there are no
MIDI Clock messages, it will follow its own tempo. In either case,
you can stop playback or recording with a MIDI Stop message
Rhythm Pc (Tx/Rx Channel)
The Rhythm Pc channel is used to receive and transmit program
changes that cause the BK-3 or the external instrument to select
another rhythm.
Parameter Setting
Rhythm Pc O, 1~16 (Default setting: 10)
NTA (Note-to-Arranger channel Rx)
NTA is short for “Note-to-Arranger”.
These parameters allow you to specify on which MIDI channels the
BK-3 should receive chord information used to change the rhythm’s
key in real-time.
If you want to use the Rhythm without playing on theBK-3’s
keyboard, you must transmit these notes on NTA MIDI channel
(from your computer or external MIDI instrument to the BK-3) .
Parameter Setting
NTA O, Ch 13, Ch 14, Ch 16 (Default setting: Ch 14)
• “O”: The NTA MIDI channel is disabled.
• “CH13, CH14,Ch16”: Allows you to select the MIDI channel (13,
14, or 16) on which the BK-3 should receive NTA messages.
Pitch Bender
This lter allows you to enable (On) or disable (O ) the transmission
and reception of Pitch Bend messages. These messages are used
to temporarily increase or decrease the pitch of the Keyboard-part
notes.
Parameter Setting
Pitch Bender O, On (Default setting: On)
Modulation
This lter allows you to enable (On) or disable (O ) the transmission
and reception of Modulation messages. These messages are used to
add vibrato to the notes you play (control change CC01).
Parameter Setting
Modulation O, On (Default setting: On)
Program Change
This lter allows you to enable (On) or disable (O ) the transmission
and reception of Program Change messages. These messages are
used to select Tones, Styles, or Performance.
Parameter Setting
Program Change O, On (Default setting: On)
Rx Velocity
This lter allows you to enable (On) or disable the reception of
velocity messages. This only applies to note messages received via
MIDI. Choose the velocity value to be substituted for the actual
values the BK-3 receives (1~127), or select “On” to use the velocity
values as is.
Parameter Setting
Program Change On, 1~127 (Default setting: On)
Clock Tx
This parameter allows you to determine whether (On) or not (O)
the Rhythm and Song send MIDI Clock messages when you start
them. These messages are necessary for synchronizing external
MIDI instruments/sequencers/software to the BK-3.
Parameter Setting
Clock Tx O, On (Default setting: On)
Start Stop Tx
This option allows you to specify whether or not the Rhythm and
Song send Start/Stop/Continue messages when you start or stop
them. Select “O” when you wish to control the tone generator
of a MIDI organ, etc., without starting or stopping its automatic
accompaniment.
Parameter Setting
Start Stop Tx O, On (Default setting: On)
SMF Position Tx
The BK-3’s Song player also sends and receives Song Position
Pointer messages that indicate the exact location of the notes that
are being played back.
Select “OFF” if you don’t want to send or receive these messages.
