Various Settings
Here you can make various MIDI-related settings for the RP201.
You can connect the RP201’s MIDI In connector to the MIDI OUT
connector on your computer’s MIDI interface and play back
separately sold CD-ROMs created for the VIMA (VIMA TUNES). This
requires the “VIMA TUNES PLAYER” software, which is available free
of charge on Roland’s web site:
http://www.roland.com/products/en/
* Please visit the RP201 product page from Alphabetical index, then
open the “Download” page.
Songs on VIMA CD-ROMs (VIMA TUNES) are programmed with
“recommended tones” suitable for each song.
When you select a song from a VIMA CD-ROM (VIMA TUNES),
recommended tones will be assigned to the RP201’s [E. Piano],
[Strings], and [Others] tone buttons, and these three tone buttons
will blink.
When you press a flashing Tone button, the recommended tone is
then selected, enabling you to perform the selected song using a
tone matched to that song as it plays back.
You can set the RP201 so that the recommended tones are
automatically assigned or not assigned.
1.
Hold down the [Song] button and press the [Metronome]
button.
The display will indicate “Fnc” and you’ll be in Function mode.
2.
Hold down the [Others] button and use the
[–] [+] buttons to make the display indicate “rtn.”
3.
Release the [Others] button to see the current setting.
4.
Use the [-] [+] buttons to change the setting.
This is set to “On” at the factory.
5.
Press the [Song] or [Metronome] button to leave
Function mode.
When you have a MIDI sequencer connected, set this parameter to
Local Off.
Since the Thru function of your sequencer will normally be turned
on, notes played on the keyboard or played back by the recorder
will be transmitted to the sound generator by the two routes (1) and
(2) shown in the illustration, causing notes to be sounded in
duplicate or to be cut off unnaturally. To prevent this, the setting
called “Local Off” is used to disconnect the route in (1).
