Simple midi question?

Post by Caseous »

Hi there. I have a VR-09 as a second tier to my Casio PS-5X and sometimes a Kurzweil Forte. This seems like a very basic question, but I'm not getting things to work and must be missing something obvious. All I'd like to do is to use the Casio to play whatever patches are pulled up on Th VR-09. Simple, right? It's the kind of thing I would thing would happen automatically when I run a cable from the 5S out to the VR-09 in. However, it seems to be playing a sound generator within the VR-09's that is different than whatever the keyboard on the VR-09 is able to produce. When I change the mode setting from GM2 to Keyboard, I get no change.
Any ideas?

Thanks,

Caseous

Set the Roland for MIDI Mode 2. Set the other board to transmit on MIDI channel 4. I think that will do what you want.
