2 (Jaguar) or higher Roland Alpha Juno 1 or 2 keyboard or MKS-50 SETTING UP YOUR JUNO: Important Note: You must enable your Alpha Juno to receive system exclusive messages. This can be done by pressing the MIDI button six(6) times until the LED reads: MIDI EXCL: OFF Now rotate the alpha dial until the LED reads: MIDI EXCL: ON Now save this setting: Press and hold WRITE , then press MIDI again. -------FAQ What is Alpha Juno Contol? Great question, glad you asked. :) Well, for the five years that I've owned my Alpha Juno, I've loved the sounds it produces but have always detested its editting method. I mean, the LED display is nice and all, but using the Alpha Dial to get everywhere just drove me nuts. So I coded Alpha Juno Control. In short, Alpha Juno Control is a small utility app that will let owners of Roland's Alpha Juno keyboard control patch parameters via MIDI from their beloved Mac's (OS X). Can I use it with my MKS-50? Yes! I can't seem to get Portamento to work? This is a bit odd, but in order for the Portamento to work from within Alpha Juno Control, you'll need to manually turn on the portamento

from the keyboard. Once portamento is in the ON position on the keyboard, it will respond to portamento changes from Alpha Juno Control. -----------Feel free to contact me at; jim@xmidi.com
