Using a V-LINK compatible
keyboard for V-LINK control
Here is how to connect and use a V-LINK compatible
keyboard to control the JM-8’s “ANIME” function. Using
a V-LINK compatible keyboard requires fewer settings
than working with a generic keyboard.
(1) Connect the external keyboard’s MIDI OUT socket
to the V-LINK/MIDI IN socket on the JM-8.
(2) Set the external keyboard’s transmission channel
to any MIDI channel except “16”.
(3) Switch on the V-LINK function on the external
keyboard.
(4) Press the [EXIT] button repeatedly until it stops
flashing to return to the main page (if necessary).
(5) Press [MENU][ADVANCED][MIDI].
(6) Press the PRESET [EXTERNAL¥IN] display button to
load the default settings and to activate the
EXTERNAL IN section.
(7) Press the [EDIT] display button.
(8) Use the PAGE [ø][˚] display buttons to select
“PART1” (this part is on page 1).
(9) Press the “CHANNEL” display field and use the dial
to select the MIDI channel that corresponds to the
external keyboard’s TX (transmission) channel.
As stated above, do not use MIDI channel “16”.
(10) If the [RX¥ON] display button below “PART1” is off,
switch it on.
If it is off, the part in question won’t receive MIDI
messages.
(11) Press the [EXIT] button repeatedly until it stops
flashing to return to the main page.
(12) Connect an external monitor or screen (page 16).
(13) Switch on the JM-8’s [ANIME] button.
(14) Use the keys assigned to the V-LINK functionality
on your external keyboard to select an “ANIME”
pattern.
(15) Start playing on the external keyboard, taking care
to press only keys that lie outside the “V-LINK”
range.
The animation will follow the rhythm of your playing,
but playing outside the “V-LINK” range will not select
other ANIME effects.
(16) Again press a key in the “V-LINK” range to select a
different effect, then play again to the right of this
key range.
