VOCODER VC340
VOCODER VC340 Special Modes
VELOCITY
The keyboard velocity can be set to a fixed value, or
a value that varies dynamically with how hard the
keys are struck. The following procedure shows how
to change the velocity:
1.
Turn off the Power.
2.
Hold down both ENSEMBLE switches while
turning on the power.
3.
If all the LEDs blink fast, then the current
velocity is a fixed value (127). The loudness
of the notes will not change if the keys are
pressed soft or hard.
4.
If all the LEDs blink slowly, then the current
velocity will vary dynamically. The loudness
of the notes will vary if the keys are pressed
soft or hard.
5.
Release the two ENSEMBLE switches and the
VC340 will save the current setting.
6.
To change to the other setting, repeat steps
1 and 2.
MIDI Channel
The MIDI transmit and receive channel numbers can be
selected from 1 to 16, using the following procedure:
1.
Turn off the Power.
2.
Hold down both the STRINGS section UPPER
and LOWER switches, while turning on
the power.
3.
All LEDs should flash 3 times fast, showing
that the VC340 is in its MIDI channel
setting mode.
4.
Release the STRINGS switches.
5.
To first set the MIDI RX channel, set the
OCTAVE switch to HIGH.
6.
The 8 VOCODER and HUMAN VOICE switches
are used to select the channel numbers
as follows:
7.
If the STRINGS LOWER switch is selected, the
8 switches represent channel numbers 1 to 8.
8.
If the STRINGS UPPER switch is selected, the 8
switches represent channel numbers 9 to 16.
9.
Select the required channel number.
10.
To set the MIDI RX channel to ALL, press and
hold both ENSEMBLE switches. (This is only
available in RX, so the VC340 can receive
incoming MIDI from all channels.)
11.
To select the MIDI TX channel, first set the
OCTAVE switch to LOW, and repeat steps
6 to 9 above.
12.
To exit, press both the STRINGS UPPER
and LOWER switches at the same time.
The channel numbers will be saved, and the
VC340returned to normal operation.
