receive additional messages at regular intervals. If active
sensing data is not detected at these intervals, the
instrument assumes that the cable has been damaged or
disconnected. Depending on the type of instrument, this
automatically executes certain functions, such as the
turning off of all notes, to prevent “stuck notes" from
occurring.
OSBX-1000 Transmission of Active Sensing Data
This data is transmitted from the MIDI OUT ports at
regular intervals when the Active Sense parameter is
set to ON in “1. MIDI" of | SETUP j.
OSBX-1000 Reception of Active Sensing Data
When the SBX-1000 initially receives this data over
the MIDI IN terminal but fails to receive it after a
specific interval, an "Active Sens Error" message is
displayed, and certain safety functions are executed.
These include the transmission of note off messages
to the cue sheet during recording or when Soft THRU
is set.
The following events can be registered in the cue sheet:
I Aftertouch Data 1Ш1
Many electronic keyboards allow you to apply vibrato, or
change the volume of the sound, by pressing down more
firmly on a key after playing it. With most of these
keyboards, “aftertouch” can be transmitted as continuous
data.
There are two kinds of aftertouch data. One is called
channel aftertouch, and controls all of the sounds of a single
MIDI channel; the another is called polyphonic aftertouch,
and it allows independent control over individual notes.
Note On (note on) [MIDI 1
Poly.Aft (polyphonic aftertouch) [MIDI i
Cont.Chg (control change) 1 MIDI i
Prog.Chg (program change) 1 MIDI 1
Chan.Aft (channel aftertouch) [MIDI 1
Pit Bend (pitch bend) [MIDI 1
Tune (tune request) [MID]
SeqStart (sequencer start) iMIDll
Seq Stop (sequencer stop) [MIDI 1
Exclusiv (exclusive) [MIDI 1
GPI (GPI trigger)
] (marking event)
Each bit of sequence data recorded in the sequencer is also
referred to as an “event." One line in the [ Microscope ]
screen represents one event.
The following events can be registered in tracks and
patterns:
O Events of Standard-type Tracks or Patterns
Note (note on) | MIDI |
PAf (polyphonic aftertouch) | MIDI |
C.Chg (control change) | MIDI |
P.Chg (program change) | MIDI |

Recording on the SBX-1000
Both channel aftertouch and polyphonic aftertouch
can be recorded in the cue sheet and sequencer.
[Chan.Aft(CAft)] and [Poly.Aft(PAft)] are displayed in
the screen.
I Event ■ESSI
Each bit of data recorded in the cue sheet is called an
"event." One line in the [Cue Sheet Play] screen represents
one event.
In the [Sheet Edit] and [Event Entry] screens, an event
which is entered and being edited is displayed over two
lines.
■ Event List dS
Cue sheets can be created more efficiently by registering
often-used events in the event list in the cue sheet. The
desired events can be loaded from files, since event lists
can be saved to disk as independent files.
[Exclusive Data 1Ш1
Exclusive data consists of messages that are unique to a
specific model of MIDI device. Data such as the
manufacturer identification (ID) code, which identifies the
instrument maker (Roland's ID is 41), and identification of
different kinds of instruments are included in the exclusive
data. Exclusive data that follows reception of a different ID
