Using the SP-555 with other MIDI equipment

Use the following MIDI channels and note numbers when
playing the SP-555’s samples from an external MIDI device,
or when using the SP-555’s pads to play an external MIDI
device.

1.

While holding down [PATTERN SELECT], switch on the
SP-555’s power.

2.

Press BANK [A].

The display will indicate “C.1.”

3.

Turn the CTRL 3 knob to specify the MIDI channel.

4.

Press [SAMPLING] to save the setting.

You can’t change the MIDI channel used for transmission by
the pattern sequencer. The pattern sequencer always operates
under the assumption that Pad Base Ch. = 1.

1.

While holding down [PATTERN SELECT], switch on the
SP-555’’s power.

2.

Press BANK [B].

The display will indicate “trU.”

3.

Turn the CTRL 3 knob to turn MIDI Thru on/off.

If this is “on,” MIDI messages received at the MIDI IN
connector or the USB MIDI input will be retransmitted
(“thru-ed”) from the MIDI OUT connector.
MIDI messages from the MIDI IN connector will be “thru-
ed” to the USB MIDI output.
The “thru-ed” MIDI messages will be merged with the
pad performance and pattern sequencer performance,
and sent to each MIDI output.
