Send transpose by midi
I am trying to control a ketron evm with pa5x , but I can't sync tranpose. Anyone knows if it is a bug ?
Re: Send transpose by midi
I'm not familiar with the Ketron, but just speaking generally, transpose is not something directly supported by MIDI, there is no standard MIDI command for it, so the transpose button on the Korg would not be expected to affect the transpose function on other devices... but the actual notes you play on the Korg should still trigger transposed notes on other devices, because once you hit the transpose button on the Korg, it will shift the MIDI value of each note to the transposed key as you play it.

Yes but it isn't
Re: Send transpose by midi
It work fine with my Nautilus. Also I know that it can work with Kronos, some Tritons, Roland Fantom's. Not working with Yamaha Montage, Modx. I don't know about Ketron, Kurzweil...
Re: Send transpose by midi
I don't have a Pa5x, but it works on my PA1000. If I connect a MIDI monitor app to the Korg, and play, say, middle C, the MIDI monitor will display that I played a C... and if I hit the front panel transpose+ button and play the same key, MIDI monitor will tell me that I am indeed sending a C# out over MIDI. I'll have to leave it to someone else to confirm whether a Pa5x behaves the same way.
Re: Send transpose by midi
Whether or not a keyboard (in this case, the Pa5X) sends transposed notes over MIDI (to some other device) will be independent of what other device you are attaching. As I referenced in my previous post, you can monitor the MIDI that comes out of the Pa5X and see whether or not the Pa5X is sending transposed note messages to external devices. The Pa5X can't tell what kind of external device you have, it will send the same thing out regardless of what you connect it to.
Re: Send transpose by midi
Notice that I am not talking about midi transposing as cc inside midi file or style but the transpose buttons
Re: Send transpose by midi
Keyboards talk to each other via midi. A midi connection is necessary. Whether it is a file or a button or a style, MiDI ia still the means of communication.

Re: Send transpose by midi
I am talking about master transpose sysex messages. When I press transpose button on Pa5x on front panel, automatically on Nautilus master transpose in global change according to pa5x. If I set one semitone down on Pa5x, Nautilus is also one semitone down.Scott wrote: ↑Mon Mar 17, 2025 11:42 amWhether or not a keyboard (in this case, the Pa5X) sends transposed notes over MIDI (to some other device) will be independent of what other device you are attaching.
