CONNECTIONS:
1) Connect the AC adapter cable to the power input jack, in the back of the controller, located next to the power switch. See Figure #1.
Figure #1.
Make sure that the AC adapter corresponds to the correct voltage output. The Studio 610 will accept an adapter that has a rating of 9V DC with a positive polarity tip and has a minimum current of 200 ma.
2) Connect MIDI cable from the ST-610 MIDI output, (each output can handle up to four synthesizers, modules, or effect devices) to the MIDI input on your sound sources. Set your sound sources to the desired MIDI channels by the ST-610 Plus. Each channel would normally be assigned to a different sound or effect. Since the ST-610 has only one zone, you can only program one of the 16 channels at a time. Make sure that your sound source is properly assigned to the channel you are sending on.
To select a base channel hold the [CHANNEL] switch and enter the channel number (1 through 16) by depressing the appropriate black numbered key (0-9). The function switch must be released after the black number keys. At this point the ST-610 is sending on that channel.
Program change:
A program change command allows you to change the sound on your sound source from the ST-610. The program change will be sent on whichever MIDI channel the ST-610 is currently set. Program changes are numbered 1 through 128. You may notice, depending on the sound source, that a program change of \ will show up on your sound source as 0. This is not a problem, since MIDI is not completely standard between manufacturers. Thank the heavens that there are only a few anomalies like this between the manufacturers.
To issue a program change, hold the [PROGRAM] switch and enter the desired number on the numbered black keys with the appropriate program number or use the [INC]/ [DEC] (increment/ decrement) keys. If a number greater than 128 is entered, it will wrap around to the beginning.
Bank change:
Some sound sources today, especially found on computer sound cards, have a feature called bank select. The MIDI specification calls for bank numbers 1 through 16384. Once you have selected your bank you are able to select a program change (1 through 128).
