MIDI Implementation
The Poly Evolver receives MIDI data according to the mode controls in the Global
Section. When in Combo mode, the Global parameters may be overridden by the
Combo settings. In addition, there is interaction between some of the Program
parameters which determine the overall response of Evolver to MIDI data. Following
are all the parameters that affect response to MIDI.
Global Parameters
MIDI Channel: ALL, 1…16 Select which MIDI channel to send
and receive data, 1 to 16. All receives on any channel.
Poly Chain: see table Poly Chain is used to link multiple Evolvers and
Poly Evolvers into a polyphonic system by selectively passing MIDI data through to
the MIDI out jack where it can be routed to another Poly Evolver. Note that MIDI
clocks are handled separately per the MIDI Clock parameter (you will likely want to
use the MIDI In and OUT clock setting). Settings:
Display Poly Chain Status
Off MIDI operation is normal.
On All MIDI information is passed through to the MIDI out jack
Note Only MIDI note data is passed through to the MIDI out jack.
Clock: see table Selects the MIDI clock status, and enables External
sequencer triggers, as follows:
Display MIDI Clock Setting
Internal MIDI clock is neither sent nor received
MIDI Out MIDI clock is sent
MIDI In MIDI clock is received
M In Out MIDI clock is received and transmitted (use
with Poly Chain)
In no ss MIDI clock is received, but MIDI
start/stop/continue messages are ignored.
Program Parameters
Trigger: see table Selects the source of triggers/gates for the envelope
generators.
