Roland RD600: How to transmit channel volume messages when selecting a setup?

[Alexander Nagel]

I'm using the RD600 to control external devices. I'd like to know if (and how) it's possible to transmit CHANNEL VOLUME controller messages when selecting a "setup" - right now, only program change and bank change messages are being transmitted. I checked that using a midi-monitoring software on my PC.

 

According to the manual, volume settings for each "local part" are being *stored* in a "setup". So why aren't they being *transmitted* via midi out when I select a setup? (But they *are* transmitted when moving the lower/upper "tx"-faders)

 

So is it simply not possible? Or am I doing something wrong?

 

Any RD600 users out there?

 

Thanks in advance and best regards,

Alex

I have an Rd 700, I think you have the same features:

 

when you are in ' setup ', press the midi tx button

 

You will see column headings for 'Ch' , 'Msg' , 'Lsb' .

 

Press the right arrow button and you will see ' volume'

The default setting is 127 . You can decrease that volume level.

 

To save on your Rd, press write and follow the steps on the LCD

Thanks for your reply, but the RD600's user interface is totally different than the one of the RD700.

 

I've checked every single option but haven't found anything to set a volume level - other than using the faders - but unfortunately their position is obviously NOT being stored into a "setup", and thus not being transmitted when selecting a "setup".
