Tarci Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 Hello everybody and thank you so much for every precious information you shared.I bought my px-5s a few months ago and I must confess I finally realized a dream since I was a teenager while I studied piano,but I would never hoped to possess a such jewel !!! Now I really feel like an enthusiastic teenager and I'm "re"-moving my first steps into a daw e midi recording after so many years... Sorry for the due intro, the question now:is it possible to record by the sequencer into my daw the only trigger notes without generate hundreds of midi events when arpeggiator is ON ? I would like to record an hexlayer sound with arpeggiator into audio track coming from the line out of the PX-5S, but record also the midi track so to possibly revise the notes I play. I read it is possible with Yamaha Motif by setting "Main ARP ON/OFF Switch = ON". Thanks in advanceTarcisio Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad Saucier Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 Yes. The PX-5s sends it's arpeggio notes out via midi. It does this by default. No need to set anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarci Posted October 22, 2014 Author Share Posted October 22, 2014 OK I Know it sends arpeggio notes out via midi and the sequencer records hundres of notes, but this is not I want....I would like to record only the notes I really play, not all the notes "generated" by the arpeggiator.

XW-Addict Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 Ah you want to turn the arpeggio generation off with sysex message. Here the site with PX5S midi-implementationhttp://support.casio.com/storage/en/manual/pdf/EN/008/PX5_midi_EN.pdf Sysex starts on page 29 , arpeggio/phrase specific from page 53,61. Although I cant myself find any specific on/off value/parameters,Maybe there a way switching with CC ,I'm noobish at this level about this stuff.

Tarci Posted October 22, 2014 Author Share Posted October 22, 2014 My target scenario is:- I play a chord with arpeggiator ON- I can hear ALL the events generated by the arpeggiator- I can record in the midi track of the sequencer ONLY the static trigger notes of the chord (so I can easily quantize or change some notes in post production) then- I can send back the trigger notes from the DAW sequencer to the px-5s via midi- the px5s arpeggiator is triggered again to generate arpeggio events- I can record the audio track from the line out Maybe it's impossible, sorry for my english if I'm not so clear....

Brad Saucier Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 Sorry. As far as I know....this is not possible. The arpeggiator on the PX-5s only responds to actual key play and nothing input via midi. You will have to record every note the arpeggiator generates in order to hear them play back. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Choppin Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 A possible solution is 2 midi channels. Since the Px-5s is divided into 4 zones, 1 of the zones can be the arpeggio maybe set to MIDI out on channel 16 but also turn midi out off for this zone. Set zone 2 to midi channel 1 or whatever you want played on the other instrument. Turn the sound generator off for zone 2 if you don't want to hear it from the PX-5s but want the midi data transmitted. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarci Posted October 24, 2014 Author Share Posted October 24, 2014 Thank you Choppin!It's probably a good and flexible midi solution. I'll try it this week end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
