Chapter 15 Using External MIDI Devices
Using an External MIDI
Sound Source to Play the
Metronome
A MIDI sound source can be used as a metronome in place of
the VS-1680’s internal metronome. To do this, use the
following procedure:
1.
Connect the VS-1680 and the MIDI sound generator as
shown below.
fig.11-27
2.
Hold [SHIFT] and press [F5 (SYSTEM)]. The System
menu icon appears in the display. If the System menu
icon does not appear, press [F6 (EXIT)].
3.
Press [F4 (MIDI)]. If “MIDI” does not appear in the
display above [F4], press [PAGE] until “MIDI” appears,
and then press [F4 (MIDI)].
4.
Use [ ], [ ], [ ], and [ ] to move the
cursor to “MIDI Thru,” and use the TIME/VALUE dial
to change the setting.
MIDI Thru
This switches the function of the MIDI OUT/THRU
connector. The default setting is “OUT.”
5.
Hold [SHIFT] and press [EXT SYNC]. The Sync/Tempo
screen appears in the display.

6.
Use [ ], [ ], [ ], and [ ] to move the
cursor to “Sync Gen.,” and turn the TIME/VALUE dial
to change the setting to “Off.”
Sync Gen. (Sync Generator)
This determines what type of MIDI synchronization, if
any, is generated at the MIDI OUT connector on the
VS-1680. You would select “MIDIclk” if you wished to
use a tempo map, or “SyncTr” to use a sync track.
Off:
No MIDI signals are transmitted.
MTC:
MIDI Time Code is transmitted.
MIDIclk:
The tempo map MIDI Clock is transmitted.
SyncTr:
The sync track MIDI Clock is transmitted.
7.
Press [EXIT]. The System menu icon appears in the
display.
8.
Press [F5 (METRO)]. The Metronome Parameter screen
appears in the display.

cursor and use the TIME/VALUE dial to change each of
the settings.

select “MIDI.” Selecting “Off” prevents you from
