MIDI Functions
The DRM1 MKIV receives MIDI notes, including the corresponding velocity data, via the MIDI-In
and USB ports. This way, its sounds can be played dynamically. Trigger impulses, received at the
optional trigger inputs, will be converted into MIDI note data plus velocity values and transmitted
via MIDI-Out and USB ports. Any other MIDI data, such as controller data, will not be processed by
the DRM1 MKIV.
Assigning MIDI channel and note number to individual
instruments
1. Press and hold the
TRIG
button
q
of the instrument channels CLAP and DRUM 1 simultaneously.
The DRM1 MKIV is now in Learn mode. To confirm your choice, Drum 1 will generate a single
trigger signal (Drum 1 sounds and its TRIG LED lights up).
2. Now, press any
TRIG
button
q
to select the desired instrument (no audible or visual response
this time).
3. Send a MIDI note to the DRM1 MKIV (e. g. from your attached MIDI keyboard). This note
number as well as the active MIDI channel will now be assigned and stored.
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 to assign further instrument channels. By using this procedure, you can
assign different MIDI channels to the instruments of your DRM1 MKIV.
5. Press and hold the
TRIG
button
q
of the instrument channel CLAP. This will exit Learn mode
(again, no audible or visual response this time).
Assigning MIDI channel and note numbers to all
instruments at once (automatic assignment)
1. Press and hold the
TRIG
button
q
of the instrument channels CLAP and DRUM 1 simultaneously.
The DRM1 MKIV is now in Learn mode. To confirm your choice, Drum 1 will generate a single
trigger signal (Drum 1 sounds and its TRIG LED lights up)
2. Now, send a sequence of eight MIDI notes to the DRM 1 MKIV, e.g. by pressing keys on an
attached MIDI keyboard.
The first MIDI note received will set the note number and MIDI channel of the KICK
instrument channel. Its TRIG LED will briefly light up and the sound is triggered to confirm
