Chapter 7 Using the GT-PRO with External MIDI Devices Connected

Chapter 7

Notes Regarding the MIDI Messages That

Can Be Transmitted and Received

The MIDI messages that the GT-PRO can transmit and

receive differ depending on whether the GT-PRO is

connected via MIDI to an external MIDI device, or is

connected to a computer through a USB connection.

● When Connecting Via MIDI

The GT-PRO transmits and receives all applicable MIDI

messages through the MIDI OUT and MIDI IN connectors.

When FC-200 Mode (p. 81) is switched on, however, only

messages used for setting the FC-200 are transmitted from

the MIDI OUT connector.

* All MIDI messages received at the MIDI IN connector are

transmitted from the MIDI THRU connector.

● When Connecting Through USB

The GT-PRO transmits and receives all applicable MIDI

messages to and from the USB-connected computer (except

for messages used for setting the FC-200).

Program Change messages and Control Change messages

are received through the MIDI IN connector.

In addition, nothing is normally output from the MIDI OUT

connector, but only in FC-200 mode, messages used for

setting the FC-200 are transmitted from the MIDI OUT

connector.

* MIDI messages arriving at the MIDI IN connector cannot be

routed on to a USB-connected computer. Likewise, messages

originating on a USB-connected computer cannot be passed

through and output from the MIDI OUT connector.

* All MIDI messages received at the MIDI IN connector are

transmitted from the MIDI THRU connector.
