The MIDI Preferences tab is shown below:
This tab has the following options:
Keyboard Input MIDI Port | Sets the port used for accepting MIDI data from a keyboard and routing it to the output MIDI port using the MIDI Router Dialog. |
Keyboard Input MIDI Channel | Sets the channel to be used for transmitting MIDI data using the MIDI Router Dialog. The first option Use Source Channel in the drop down list, means that the MIDI channel from the source device is not altered. |
Motif Input MIDI Port | Sets the port used for MIDI input from Motif from the available ports. |
Motif Output MIDI Port | Sets the port used for MIDI output to the Motif from the available ports. |
SYSEX Device Number | Sets the SYSEX device number used for SYSEX transfers. This must match the Device No value set in the Motif's Utility Mode MIDI tab. If the Motif Device No is set to all then it will receive all Motif SYSEX messages irrespective of the device number in the message. |
Timeout Delay
|
Sets the time that motif.factory waits for a response from the Motif
before timing out and reporting an error. The value is specificied
in milliseconds.
|
Transmit Buffer Size
|
Sets the size of the transmit buffer used for sending data to the Motif. Some MIDI interfaces don't like data coming in big chunks and you may need to set this to get a reliable transfer of data. The value is specificied in milliseconds. |
Transmit Delay Between Buffers
|
This sets the delay that motif.factory waits for between sending buffer sized data packets. The value is specificied in milliseconds. |
Transmit Delay Between Objects
|
This sets the delay that motif.factory waits for after sending a complete object. The value is specificied in milliseconds. |
Automatically Update Motif after Synth Window Edit | When this option is checked, if the Motif Synthesizer Window is edited then the edited data will be automatically sent to the Motif. |
Read Motif MIDI Data On motif.factory Startup | When this option is checked the data is read from the Motif during the motif.factory startup phase. |
