3) Controller X/Y will take priority over other control messages, so if controller X/Y is the mod wheel, mod wheel messages will
operate whatever controller X/Y is currently assigned to, instead of operating modulation.

4) Transmit/Receive channel and omni-on setting will return you directly to playing mode, all other keys will let you stay in SET-
UP mode until you press the ENTER key (Top C)

5) The ENTER key (Top C) also resets all controllers to their default values - off in most cases - on for volume - centre for pitch
bender.

6) After pressing the red push button twice to enter set-up mode, the first assignment that you make for any given source (after-
touch for example) will cancel all other destinations currently assigned to that source - if you want to make multiple
assignments, you will have to do this in the same set-up session, in other words, before you press top C. - For example -
irrespective of what aftertouch was previously assigned to, pressing F (and release) will assign it to VCF only - to make
aftertouch also bend pitch, you will have to press E ( and release) before pressing the top C which will ENTER the information and
store it in n.v. memory.

OTHER SET-UPS WILL REMAIN UNALTERED UNLESS SPECIFICALLY CHANGED

7) Control change commands recognised - (numbers in decimal)

121 reset all controllers

01 modulation wheel

123 all notes off

07 Main volume

124 omni mode off (always poly)

64 sustain pedal

125 omni mode on (always poly)

94 select transpose mode

126 (mono mode) = all notes off

95 select set-up mode

127 (poly mode) = all notes off
nnn Controller X (user defined where nnn = any controller)
nnn Controller Y (user defined where nnn = any controller)
Controller X default = 16

Controller Y default = 17

8) Other commands recognised - (numbers in hexadecimal)

8nH notes off

9nH notes on & velocity

BnH control change (see above)

CnH program change

DnH channel pressure (aftertouch) EnH pitch-bend change
FEH active sensing

9) Note that the LFO delay control (on the Jupiter 8 bender panel) must be set at zero for Modulation
to work properly from MIDI.

10) When the JUPITER 8 receives MIDI program changes, any value that MIDI had sent to the vcf will be
reset to zero, so that you hear your patches as they were programmed, MIDI volume remains
unaltered.
