are checked and assigned in the keyboard and
not in the sound generator. The idea behind this
option is that it is an easy and elegant way to in-
clude external sound generators in the split and

The bass mentioned in the example above, was
only activated by the lower half of the keyboard.
Now the sound would no longer have to come
from the VIRUS, any other MIDI controlled syn-
thesizer would do. Selected keyboard ranges
can be diverted at the MIDI-Out long before
they reach the VIRUS’ sound generator. During
a live performance this enables you to tie in ex-
ternal sound generators by using the VIRUS as
a masterkeyboard. This is not possible in nor-
mal MULTI MODE because the organizing and
assigning functions only apply to the internal
sound generators.

The Keyboard Mode function enables you to
select OneChannel or Multichannels and this is
how it works:
select OneChannel or Multichannels and this is
how it works:
If Onechannel is selected, the keyboard trans-
mits on only one MIDI channel, that is the chan-
nel of the selected part (or on the “ Global
Channel” in Single Mode) to the sound genera-
tor and to the MIDI-Out. This is the normal set-

If MultiChannels is selected, the keyboard sig-
nals can be sent to all the Multiparts as well as
to the Midi Out on several Midi Channels. The
Routing is handled by the parameter Keyboard
Route, that can be found in the Multi Edit Menu;
individually for each Part. In the position “Inter-
nal” the Part is controlled by the keyboard, re-
gardless of which MIDI channel has been set.
But this Part does not send Midi data to the
output.

When Keyboard Route is set to “Midi” for one
or more parts, the keyboard transmits to MIDI-

The current bank and program numbers and the
parts’ volume settings are also transmitted via
MIDI-Out. The parameter formerly activated on
the receiving side can now be used on the
transmitter side; the 16 Multi-Parts now at your
disposal allow for very extensive control of ex-
ternal sound generators.

Independent of the Keyboard Routing the Parts

Here once again the various applications:
THE PASSIVE PART
Keyboard Route =Off
The Keyboard does not transmit data to either
the MIDI-Out nor to the sound generator, and is
consequently not activated on the transmitting
side. The part does however receive data from
the MIDI-In, and can be controlled on its MIDI
channel by an external keyboard or sequencer.
