INTRODUCTION INTRODUCTIONINTRODUCTION
INTRODUCTION
P61-KBD is a MIDI retrofit for Korg Poly-61 synthesizers. It allows Korg Poly-61 to be controlled via MIDI
commands as a MIDI expander. The interface works in one direction only – it only receives MIDI data. The Poly-
61’s keyboard, control panel sliders and switches are not transmitted

INTERFACE BASIC OPE INTERFACE BASIC OPEINTERFACE BASIC OPE
INTERFACE BASIC OPERATION
RATIONRATION
RATION
There are no controllers or indicators on the interface. All interface parameters / functions are adjustable only
via MIDI commands transmitted from a MIDI data source (DAW, sequencer, …).
Standard MIDI Channel commands (MIDI Channel Nr. is user definable) and Common System commands or
System Exclusive Messages are used for the interface control (see chapter 2.4).
2.1
2.12.1

MIDI CHANNEL PARAMETER MIDI CHANNEL PARAMETERMIDI CHANNEL PARAMETER
MIDI CHANNEL PARAMETER
This parameter sets the basic MIDI channel for communication with MIDI DAW / sequencer. Any of the 16
available channels can be set as well as MIDI OMNI mode

.
Parameter values are 0 to 16. Values 0 to 15 represent MIDI channels 1 to 16. Value 16 is for OMNI MODE.
Value of this parameter in edit buffer can be adjusted only by MIDI System Exclusive Message (see chapter 3.3).
2.2
2.22.2
2.2
KEY SHIFT PARAMETER KEY SHIFT PARAMETERKEY SHIFT PARAMETER
KEY SHIFT PARAMETER
This parameter transposes range of the instrument’s keyboard in whole scale of MIDI notes. The parameter
value specifies exactly the number of MIDI Note which is assigned to the lowest key of the instrument’s
keyboard.
Values of the parameter can be from 0 to 67. If value 0 is set (transposition is 0), the lowest key of the keyboard
corresponds to MIDI Note Nr. 0 and the highest key corresponds to MIDI Note Nr. 60. If value 1 of the
parameter is set, (transposition is +1), the lowest key of the keyboard corresponds to MIDI Note Nr. 1 and the
highest key corresponds to MIDI Note Nr. 61. Etc., up to value 67 of the parameter (transposition is +67) when
the lowest key of the keyboard corresponds to MIDI Note Nr. 67 and the highest key corresponds to MIDI Note
Nr. 127. See pic. 3 for more details.
The value in edit buffer can be adjusted by MIDI CC #16 (see chapter 3.1.2) or by SysEx message (see chapter
3.3).
2.3
2.32.3
2.3
KEY PRIORITY PARAMETER KEY PRIORITY PARAMETERKEY PRIORITY PARAMETER
KEY PRIORITY PARAMETER
Value of the parameter adjusts incoming MIDI Note On/Off commands processing in case of all six tone
generators of the instrument are being used (all six voices are sounding).
The parameter value is 0 to 3:
0 Æ LAST: Last key priority – the last pressed key always replaces the first key pressed.
1 Æ HIGHER: Higher key priority – if the last pressed key is of higher tone than any of the previously pressed
keys, the lowest key tone is replaced.
2 Æ LOWER: Lower key priority – if the last pressed key is of lower tone than any of the previously pressed
keys, the highest key tone is replaced.
3 Æ NONE: No priority – if all six tone generators are being used, all Note On commands are ignored at
the MIDI input.
The value in edit buffer can be adjusted by MIDI CC #17 (see chapter 3.1.2) or by SysEx message (see chapter
3.3).

OMNI mode enables the instrument to receive data on all 16 MIDI channels simultaneously.

Valid parameter values are 0 to 24. The 0 value switches the pitch bend off - MIDI command “Pitch Bend” is
ignored. The values of 1 to 24 set the bend range in semitones, The ±2 octave transposition is available thus.
The value in edit buffer can be adjusted by MIDI CC #18 (see chapter 3.1.2 or by SysEx message (see chapter
3.3).

Pitch Bend MIDI command affects only tones launched by MIDI Notes. Own instrument’s keyboard is not affected.

As a support for the users we have made software generator to create System Exclusive messages to control

binary or hexadecimal numbers.
The generator is based on Java scripts so it can run on any computer with web browser (Windows, OSX, etc.)
