For Drum Instruments, you cannot use both chorus and delay simultaneously. If in the drum edit screen either the Chorus Send or Delay Send parameters are marked by an asterisk (*), that parameter is not valid. However if you modify the value of that parameter, the parameter will be enabled. In other words, either chorus or delay will be valid, whichever was set last.

fig.6-17

Assign Group
Each Instrument can be given a number, and instruments with the identical number are treated as an Assign group. No two instruments of the same Assign group will sound together. If while one instrument is sounding, a MIDI message is received to play another instrument in the same Assign group, the first instrument will be turned off first. This is a useful way to prevent two instruments from sounding simultaneously that would not normally do so. For example, since it is obviously impossible for a hi-hat to simultaneously produce both an open hi-hat sound and a closed hi-hat sound, these two sounds could be set to the same Assign group (the same number) so that they would not sound together. Numbers from Non, 1 to 127 can be selected, but instruments for which Non is selected will not be turned off by other instruments. In other words, instruments with a setting of Non will not be treated as an Assign group.
Be aware that if you select a different Drum Set, the parameter values will be initialized.
Switching drum sets in the drum screen
Even when you are in the drum screen, you can still switch drum sets, etc. s Selecting Drum Maps Use the PART [ ][ ] buttons to select the Drum map. At the factory settings, you can select A1, B1, C1, and D1. A1: Drum1 of Part Group A A2: Drum2 of Part Group A (Only when a Drum Part is added by Part Mode settings) B1: Drum1 of Part Group B B2: Drum2 of Part Group B (Only when a Drum Part is added by Part Mode settings) C1: Drum1 of Part Group C C2: Drum2 of Part Group C (Only when a Drum Part is added by Part Mode settings) D1: Drum1 of Part Group D D2: Drum2 of Part Group D (Only when a Drum Part is added by Part Mode settings)
For details about Drum1, Drum2 and Part Mode, refer to p.37, 55.

s Selecting Drum Sets

1 Press INST [

fig.6-16

] to move the cursor to VAR. (the Drum Set Number).
2 Rotate the [VALUE] knob, or press [DEC] or [INC] to select a Drum Set.
Then, select the drum instrument as shown in step 5 of Drum Edit (p.70).
Be aware that when you switch drum sets, the parameter values of the original drum set will be initialized.
s Saving a Drum Set You Created (User Drum Set)
You can modify Drum Instrument parameters to your liking, and save this data as a Drum Set. A Drum Set saved in this way is called a User Drum Set. You can save up to two Drum Sets, and since each set contains 128 instrumental sounds, this provides a total of 256 instrumental sounds (Drum Instruments). You can also give each User Drum Set a name of your choice. User Drum Sets are stored in Drum Set numbers 65 and 66 of the SC-8850 map (p.76). There are two ways to store an edited Drum Instrument. The first is to store each Drum Instrument individually (procedure 1). The second is to store an entire set of Drum Instruments as a Drum Set (procedure 2).

Keyboard Multi provides Ring Modulator (RM), Equalizer (EQ), Pitch Shifter (PS), Phaser (PH) and Delay (Dly) effects connected in series. Ring Modulator is an effect which applies amplitude modulation (AM) to the input signal, producing bell-like sounds.

fig.9-59

Effects that connect two types of effect in parallel (parallel 2)
Effect types in which two different effects are connected in parallel allow you to apply different effects to L and R independently. By using parallel effects for the sound of two Parts, you can achieve a result as if two separate effect units were used. For example, you might select a guitar sound for Part 1 and an organ sound for Part 2. Then set the pan setting to L63 (far left) for Part 1, and to R63 (far right) for Part 2. Apply the effect 60: OD/Rotary to both Parts 1 and 2. By then making appropriate settings for the OD Pan and RT Pan effect parameters, you can apply Overdrive to the guitar sound and Rotary to the organ sound, effectively allowing you to use two separate effects at once.

This message conveys volume changes. It can be used to add expression during a song. Using Volume and Expression It is convenient to use Volume and Expression in distinct ways, as follows. Volume: Adjust the volume balance between Parts. Expression: Create volume changes during a song (crescendo, decrescendo, etc.) The reason for this differentiation is that if you use only Volume messages to create volume changes during the song, you will have to modify all of the Volume data in the song if you later decide to adjust the volume balance between the Parts. However, if you use only Volume at the beginning of the song, and use only Expression during the song, it will be easy to adjust the volume balance between Parts for the entire song simply by modifying the Volume data at the beginning of the song, and the data for changes in dynamics during the song can remain as it was. This is very convenient when, for example, you decide to make a slight change in the balance between the piano and bass when the song is nearly completed.
The volume of a Part will be affected both by Volume messages (control change 7) and by Expression messages (control change 11). If a value of 0 is received for either of these messages, the Part volume will be 0 and will not rise even if the other message is sent with a higher value. Be aware of this.
Pan (control change number 10)
This message controls the stereo position of a Part. (p.54)
Hold (1) (control change number 64)
This message conveys the up/down movements of the damper pedal, causing the currently sounding notes to be sustained. When a Hold On message is received, notes will be sustained. In the case of decay-type instruments such as a piano, the sound will decay gradually until a Hold Off message is received. In the case of sustain-type instruments such as an organ, the sound will continue sustaining until a Hold Off message is received.
Sostenuto (control change number 66)
The sostenuto pedal on a piano sustains only the notes which were already sounding at the moment the pedal was pressed. The Sostenuto message conveys the movement of this pedal. When Sostenuto On is received, only the notes which were already on at that moment will be sustained. In the case of decay-type instruments such as a piano, the sound will decay gradually until a Sostenuto Off message is received. In the case of sustain-type instruments such as an organ, the sound will continue sustaining until a Sostenuto Off message is received.

For details about how to use NRPN with GS sound modules, refer to Using NRPNs with GS Sound Modules (p.154).
Aftertouch (Channel Pressure only )
Aftertouch is a message which conveys the pressure applied to the keyboard after playing a note, so that this information can be used to control various aspects of the sound. There are two types of aftertouch message: Polyphonic Key Pressure, which is transmitted separately for each note: and Channel Key Pressure, which is transmitted as one value that affects all notes on the specified MIDI channel. With the initial settings, Aftertouch messages will have no effect when received by the SC-8850. In order for Aftertouch messages to do something, you need to set Aftertouchrelated parameters. (p.59)

All Sounds Off

This message completely turns off the sound of all currently sounding notes. The sound of the specified channel will be forcibly turned off.

All Notes Off

This message causes a Note Off to be sent to each note of the specified channel that is currently on. However, if Hold 1 or Sostenuto are on, the sound will continue until these are turned off.

Reset All Controllers

This message returns controller values to their initial settings. The following controller values for the specified channel will be reset to their initial values. Controller Pitch Bend Polyphonic Key Pressure Channel Pressure Modulation Expression Hold Portamento Soft Sostenuto RPN NRPN Initial value 0 (center) 0 (minimum) 0 (minimum) 0 (minimum) 127 (maximum) 0 (off) 0 (off) 0 (off) 0 (off) number unset number unset Parameter values that were modified using RPN or NRPN will not change even when a Reset All Controller message is received.

Active Sensing

This message is used to check for broken MIDI connections, such as MIDI connectors that have been pulled out, or MIDI cables that have been broken. The SC-8850 transmits Active Sensing messages from MIDI OUT at specific intervals. Once an Active Sensing message is received at MIDI IN, Active Sensing monitoring will begin, and if an Active Sensing message fails to arrive for more than 420 [msec], it is assumed that the cable has been disconnected. If this happens, all currently sounding notes will be turned off, the same procedure will be executed as if a Reset All Controllers message was received, and Active Sensing monitoring will stop.
System Exclusive messages
Exclusive messages are used to control functions which are unique to specific devices. Although Universal System Exclusive messages can be used even between devices of different manufacturers, most Exclusive messages cannot be used between devices of different types or different manufacturers. In order to recognize the device for which the data is intended, Roland Exclusive messages contain a manufacturer ID, device ID and model ID. The SC-8850 manufacturers ID is 41H. The device ID is 10H. The model ID is 42H.

If a voice is already sounding for a note number identical to the Source Note Number, this voice will continue sounding (i.e., legato) and will, when the next Note-on is received, smoothly change to the pitch of that Note-on. The rate of the pitch change caused by Portamento Control is determined by the Portamento Time value.

The System Exclusive Messages received by the SC-8850 are; messages related to mode settings, Universal Realtime System Exclusive messages, Data Requests (RQ1), and Data Set (DT1).
qSystem Exclusive messages related to mode settings
These messages are used to initialize a device to GS or General MIDI mode, or change the operating mode. When creating performance data, a GM1 System On message should be inserted at the beginning of a General MIDI 1 score, a GM2 System On message at the beginning of a General MIDI 2 score, and a GS Reset message at the beginning of a GS music data. Each song should contain only one mode message as appropriate for the type of data. (Do not insert two or more mode setting messages in a single song.) GM System On uses Universal Non-realtime Message format. GS Reset uses Roland system Exclusive format Data Set 1 (DT1).
