WHAT IS MIDI?
Here is a brief overview of MIDI, as related to the
microARRANGER. If interested, you may find more
informationonthegeneraluseofMIDIinthevarious
specializedmagazinesandbooks.

In general
MIDI stands for Musical Instruments Digital Interface.
Thisinterfaceletsyouconnecttwomusicalinstruments,
oracomputerandvariousmusicalinstruments.

MIDIIN(thisisusefultodaisychainmoreinstruments).

Channels and messages


Basically, a MIDI cable transmits 16 channels of data.
Think to each MIDI channel as a TV channel: the
receivermustbesetonthesamechannelofthetrans
mitter. The same happenswith MIDImessages:when
you send a Note On message on channel 1, it will be
received on channel 1 only. This allows for multitim
bricity:youcanhavemorethanonesoundplayingon
thesameMIDIinstrument.
Therearevariousmessages,butherearethemostcom
monlyused:
Note On This message instructs an instrument to
play a note on a specific channel. Notes have both a
name(C4standingforthecenterC)andanumber(60
being the equivalent for C4). A Note Off message is
often used to say the note has been released. In some
case,aNoteOnwithvalue0isusedinstead.
TogetherwiththeNoteOnmessage,aVelocityvalueis
always sent. This value tells the instrumenthow loud
thenotemustplay.

THE GENERAL MIDI STANDARD


Some years ago, the musical instruments world felt a
needforsomefurtherstandardization.Then,theGen
eral MIDI Standard (GM) was born. This extension of
the basic MIDI sets new rules for compatibility
betweeninstruments:
Aminimumof16MIDIchannelswasrequired.
Abasicsetof128Programs,correctlyordered,was
mandatory.
TheDrumKithadastandardorder.

A most recent extension is the GM2, that further
expands the Programs database. The microAR

THE SONGS AND THE STANDARD MIDI FILE


FORMAT
ThenativeSongfileformatofthemicroARRANGERis
the Standard MIDI File (SMF), an universal standard
setbyallmanufacturers.Youcanreadthesefileswith
anymusicalinstrumentorcomputer.
A difference could be in the sound played by each
track. If you recorded a Song with the microAR
RANGER(Songmode),usingonlyGeneralMIDIpro
grams, you can play the same Song on virtually any
other musical instrument or computer. If you used
KORG native programs, you cannot reproduce the
samesoundsoninstrumentsfromotherbrands.
When you read SMFs in Song Play mode, there is no
problem reading files made using only General MIDI
sounds. Sounds could be different when playing a
Songmadeonadifferentinstrument:despitethewide
compatibility of microARRANGER with other, non
standardformats,differencesmayarise.
Ifso,gototheSongoperatingmodeandloadtheSMF.
Then, manually reassign the nonmatching Programs,
replacingthemwithsimilarProgramsonthemicroAR
RANGER. Then, save theSMFagain, andyou willbe
abletoplayitinSongPlaymodewiththecorrectPro
grams.

a: Envelope Select
When L/R Mix is selected for this parameter, the left and right
channels are linked to control the Limiter using the mixed signal. If L Only (or R Only) is selected, the left and right channels are linked, and the Limiter is controlled via only the left
(or right) channel.
With L/R individually, the left and right channels control the
Limiter individually.
b: Ratio, c: Threshold [dB], e: Gain Adjust [dB]
This parameter sets the signal compression Ratio. Compression is applied only when the signal level exceeds the
Threshold value.

These parameters are used to set the EQ applied to the trigger signal.
The Limiter determines whether the compression is applied or
not, based on the post-EQ trigger signal. Setting the equalizer
allows you to set the Limiter to respond to any frequency
band.
f: Trigger Monitor
Setting this parameter On will cause the trigger signal to be

a: Envelope Select, a: Src


The Envelope Select parameter selects whether the gate
on/off is triggered by the level of the input signal, or controlled
directly by the modulation source. The Src parameter specifies the modulation source, selected from Off to
Gate2+Dpmr.
With Envelope Select = L/R Mix, the left and right channel
signal mixture will trigger the gate on/off. When L Only or R
Only is selected, the gate is controlled by either of the channel signals.
b: Polarity
This parameter reverses the Gate on/off operation. With a
negative value, the gate is closed when the input signal level
exceeds the Threshold. The gate operation controlled by the
modulation source is also reversed.
c: Threshold, d: Attack, d: Release
This parameter sets the signal level below which Gate is
applied when Envelope Select is set to L/R Mix, L Only, or
R Only.

The Wah parameter switches the wah effect on/off.
a: Sw
This parameter sets how the wah effect is switched on and off
via the modulation source.
When Sw = Moment, the wah effect is usually turned off. It
is turned on only when you press the pedal or operate the joystick.
When a value for the modulation source is less than 64, off speed
is selected, and when the value is 64 or higher, on is selected.

b: Wah Sweep Range, b: Wah Sweep Src


This parameter sets the sweep range of the wah center frequency. A negative value will reverse the direction of sweep.
The wah center frequency can be controlled by the modulation source specified in the Wah Sweep Src parameter.
d: Drive, e: Output Level
The degree of distortion is determined by the level of input
signal and the setting of Drive. Raising the Drive setting
will cause the entire volume level to increase. Use the Output
Level parameter to adjust the volume level. The Output
Level parameter uses the signal level input to the 3-Band
EQ. If clipping occurs at the 3-Band EQ, adjust the Output
Level parameter.

frequency is determined based on the note number, allowing
you to use it as an octaver. The Note Interval parameter sets
the pitch offset from the original note number by semitone
steps. The Note Fine parameter allows you to fine-tune in
steps of cents.
d: Envelope Pre LPF
This parameter sets the upper limit of the frequency range to
which very low harmonics are added. Adjust this parameter if
you do not want to add lower harmonics to the higher range.

a: Pre LPF
If a sampler with a very low sampling frequency receives very
high-pitched sound that could not be heard during playback, it
could generate pitch noise that is unrelated to the original
sound. Set Pre LPF to ON to prevent this noise from being
generated.
If you set the Sampling Freq to about 3kHz and set Pre
LPF to OFF, you can create a sound like a ring modulator.
e: Resolution, f: Output Level
If you set a smaller value for the Resolution parameter, the
sound may be distorted. The volume level may also be
changed. Use Output Level to adjust the level.

This parameter switches the flanger control mode. With
Sweep Mode = EG, the flanger will sweep using the envelope generator. This envelope generator is included in the
envelope flanger, and not related to the Pitch EG, Filter EG, or
Amp EG.
The Src parameter selects the source that starts the envelope generator. If you select, for example, Gate, the envelope
generator will start when the note-on message is received.
When Sweep Mode = D-mod, the modulation source can
control the flanger directly. Select the modulation source
using the Src parameter.
The effect is off when a value for the modulation source specified for
the Src parameter is smaller than 64, and the effect is on when the
value is 64 or higher. The Envelope Generator is triggered when the
value changes from 63 or smaller to 64 or higher.

Attack and Decay speed are the only adjustable parameters
on this EG.

a: LFO Mode, a: Src, b: LFO Sync


The LFO Mode parameter switches LFO operation mode.
When Loop is selected, the Doppler effect will be created
repeatedly. If LFO Sync is set to On, the LFO will be reset
when the modulation source specified with the Src parameter is turned on.
When LFO Mode is set to 1-Shot, the Doppler effect is created only once when the modulation source specified in the
Src field is turned on. At this time if you do not set the Src
parameter, the Doppler effect will not be created, and no
effect sound will be output.
The effect is off when a value for the modulation source specified for
the Src parameter is smaller than 64, and the effect is on when the
value is 64 or higher. The Doppler effect is triggered when the value
changes from 63 or smaller to 64 or higher.

e: Pitch Depth
With the Doppler effect, the pitch is raised when the sound
approaches, and the pitch is lowered when the sound goes
away. This parameter sets this pitch variation.
f: Pan Depth
This parameter sets the width of the stereo image of the effect
sound. With larger values, the sound seems to come and go
from much further away. With positive values, the sound
moves from left to right; with negative values, the sound
moves from right to left.

When Control Mode = LFO, the intensity of resonance varies according to the LFO. The LFO sways between positive
and negative values, causing resonance to occur between
specified pitches an octave apart in turn.
When Control Mode = D-mod, the resonance is controlled
by the dynamic modulation source. If JS X or Ribbon is
assigned as the modulation source, the pitch an octave
higher and lower can be controlled, similar to when LFO is
selected for Control Mode.
a: LFO/D-mod Invert
When Control Mode = LFO or D-mod, the controlled phase
of either Voice 1 or 2 will be reversed. When the resonance
pitch is set for Voice 1 (Resonance has a positive value),
Voice 2 will resonate at a pitch an octave below (Resonance
has a negative value).
d: Voice1: Pitch, d: Fine [cent], g: Voice2: Pitch, g: Fine

The Pitch parameter specifies the pitch of resonance by note
name. The Fine parameter allows for fine adjustment in
steps of cents.
e: High Damp [%], h: High Damp [%]
This parameter sets the damping amount of resonant sound
in the high range. Lower values will make a metallic sound

b: LFO Phase
This parameter determines the difference in the left and right
LFO phases. When you change the value gradually from 0,
the sound from the left and right channels will chase each
other around. If you set the parameter to +180 or 180, the
sound from each channel will cross over each other.
You need to input different sounds to each channel in order
for this parameter to be effective.

a: Pre LPF
This parameter enables you to set the damping amount of the
high range sound input to the ring modulator. If the input
sound contains lots of harmonics, the effect may sound dirty.
In this case, cut a certain amount of high range.

This parameter determines whether or not the oscillator frequency follows the note number.
c: Fixed Frequency [Hz]
This parameter sets the oscillator frequency when OSC
Mode is set to Fixed.
d: Note Offset, d: Note Fine
These parameters for the oscillator are used when OSC
Mode is set to Note (Key Follow). The Note Offset sets the
pitch difference from the original note in semitone steps. The
Note Fine parameter fine-adjusts the pitch in cent steps.
Matching the oscillator frequency with the note number produces a ring modulation effect in the correct key.

a: Mode
This parameter switches the pitch shifter operating mode.
With Slow, tonal quality will not be changed too much. With
Fast, the effect becomes a Pitch Shifter that has a quick
response, but may change the tone. Medium is in between
these two. If you do not need to set too much pitch shift
amount, set this parameter to Slow. If you wish to change the
pitch significantly, use Fast.
b: Pitch Shift [1/2tone], b: Src, b: Amt, c: Fine [cent], c:
Amt
The amount of pitch shift will use the value of the Pitch Shift
plus the Fine value. The amount of modulation will use the
c: Amt value plus d: Amt.
Modulation Source is used both for Pitch Shift and Fine.
e: Feedback Position, f: Feedback
When Feedback Position is set to Pre, the pitch shifter output is again input to the pitch shifter. Therefore, if you specify
a higher value for the Feedback parameter, the pitch will be
raised (or lowered) more and more each time feedback is
repeated.
If Feedback Position is set to Post, the feedback signal will
not pass through the pitch shifter again. Even if you specify a
higher value for the Feedback parameter, the pitch-shifted
sound will be repeated at the same pitch.

c: Envelope Select, c: Src, d: Threshold


These parameters select the source to control the start and
end of recording.
When Envelope Select is set to D-mod, the input signal will
be recorded only when the value of the modulation source
selected by the Src parameter is 64 or higher.
When Envelope Select is set to Input, the input signal will
be recorded only when its level exceeds the Threshold level.
When recording is completed, reverse playback starts immediately.

e: High Damp [%], e: Low Damp [%]


These parameters set the damping amount of high range and
low range. The tone of the delayed sound becomes darker
and lighter as it feeds back.
g: Spread
This parameter sets the pan width of the effect sound. The
stereo image is widest with a value of 50, and the effect
sound of both channels is output from the center with a value
of 0.

L LFO Phase and R LFO Phase set the phase obtained
when the left and right LFOs are reset. In this way, you can
create changes in pitch sweep for the left and right channels
individually.
The effect is off when a value of the modulation source specified in
the Src parameter is 63 or smaller, and the effect is on when the
value is 64 or higher. The LFO is triggered and reset to the L LFO

a: Control Target
This parameter selects no level control, delay output control

a: Polarity, b: Threshold, b: Offset, c: Attack, d: Release
The Offset parameter specifies the value for the Control
Target parameter (that is set to None), expressed as the ratio
relative to the parameter value (the Wet/Dry value with
Control Target=Out, or the Feedback value with Control
Target=FB).
When Polarity is positive, the Control Target value is
obtained by multiplying the parameter value by the Offset
value (if the input level is below the threshold), or equals the
parameter value if the input level exceeds the threshold.
When Polarity is negative, Control Target value equals the
parameter value if the input level is below the threshold, or is
obtained by multiplying the parameter value by the Offset
value if the level exceeds the threshold.
The Attack and Release parameters specify attack time
and release time of delay level control.

The Envelope Select parameter enables you to select
whether turning the gate on and off is triggered by the input
signal level or controlled directly by the modulation source.
You can select from Off to Gate2+Dmpr for the Src parameter
to specify the modulation source.
When Envelope Select is set to Input, the gate is controlled
by the level of signals that are the combination of the dry
sound and the reverb sound. When the signal level exceeds
the threshold, the gate opens and the reverb sound is output.
Normally, set Input Reverb Mix to Dry (the gate is controlled
only by the dry sound). If you wish to extend the gate time, set
the Input Reverb Mix value higher and adjust the Threshold value.
