Quick start
Playing via MIDI keyboard
Let's start with the blue PART-A:
The MD900 is connected to the included power supply and ready for operation.
We have connected a MIDI keyboard (DIN-MIDI or USB-MIDI) and set MIDI ports
and channels.
The stereo output is connected to a mixer/audio interface/active speakers.
Or via headphones, the total volume MAIN-LEVEL & HEADP. are set.
In TAB: MASTER each synth part A,B,C,D can be mixed in volume.
Mute is not activated.
EXPedal is off
Preset of the corresponding part is loaded. (or [default] preset)
Now you should be able to hear the first sounds from the MD900.
In case no sound can be heard from the MD900, we proceed as follows:
1. in the tab: DIAG we can observe the incoming MIDI events. Let's check if the events
match our expectations and settings. Correct if necessary.
2. if there are no MIDI note ON/OFF events, please check the device assignment, see
MIDI DEVICES or the connected DIN - MIDI Keyboard.
3. in the tab: MIDI/IN-A please check the port and channel settings according to the
received or desired port/channel/ Start=0 End=192 settings, see MIDI INPUTS
4. volume [A] > 0 % MAIN->LEVEL slider on the panel > 0%
5. we see a signal at MASTER in Main[L] and Main[R].
6. check if the TS jack connection to your monitor system.
