FDS-366T
When a MIDI Dump is undertaken between two, or more, FDS-366T units they
become synchronised, i.e. the contents of each device's memory is identical.
It is at this point, and this point only, that parallel parameter control of multiple
units is achievable. In this situation, changes made to parameters on the
master Omnidrive will be mirrored on all other connected FDS-366T units that
are set to the same MIDI channel and have just received the MIDI Dump.
Changing of any of the Utilities parameters that affect the communications,
i.e. MIDI Mode or Channel, will immediately end this capability.
If a PC is used to control the network, i.e. using software such as BSS Audio's
Soundbench, then the PC becomes the 'master' and also requires a MIDI
'loop' in order to communicate. The link to the PC can be MIDI only when a
MIDI compatible sound card or interface is available in the computer.
The MIDI loop
Connect the MIDI Out from the last unit in the chain back to the MIDI In on
the PC in order for the PC to be able to actuate parameter level control on the
Omnidrives. Each device must be set to an independant MIDI channel for
Soundbench to communicate to them.
