Setting the MIDI device number

The “Setting the MIDI device number” menu enables you
to set the FD-4 device ID number required to control the
unit from a sequence software using MMC (MIDI Machine
Control) or FEX (Fostex System Exclusive Message).
The transmit device ID links to this setting.
You can set the device ID from 00 to 99.
However, if the device ID number of the message the FD-4
receives is [7F], the FD-4 will recognizes it to perform the
corresponding operation, regardless of its device ID set-
ting.

• Device ID: 00–99
