CAS_MT5.DK Help File
Loading in the file CAS_MT5.DK will setup Band-In-A-Box for the
Casio MT-540. It will setup:
1. Drum #'s for the Casio MT-540
2. Patch Map (assigned to factory settings of the Casio MT-540)
3. Startup Patches and Channels in the MIDI Settings Window
Thanks to Band-In-A-Box user Darryl Lock for uploading these .dk and
.doc files. His comments follow:
The Casio MT-540 has 4 channels with polyphony of 6,4,2,4 for
channels
1,2,3 and 4 respectively. This setup plays Bass on channel 3 (the lowest
polyphony), Piano on 1 (the highest), Drums on 2, and everything else
on 4.
(If you use melody and styles with strings, guitar etc., you will miss
some,
but such are the limitations of this keyboard)
Channel 4 is set to sync on the Casio at power on and you must press
the
CH 4, button to use it as a regular midi channel. If the Casio powers
down
(when not used for a period of time it will power off automatically),
you
must press the CH 4 button again after you turn it on.
The setup also makes use of the 'hidden' patches that you can only get
to by
midi (ie. not on the keyboard via buttons). The setup was tested using
the Voyetra Vapi drivers.
There are at least two other Casio devices that could use this setup. One
is
a keyboard that looks almost identical but lacks the sound effect
buttons,
and the other is a midi 'module' which contains electronics that
responds
identically, but has no keyboard.
Have Fun!
