This retrofit kit for the Roland Jupiter-4 adds the following MIDI control:
For incoming MIDI: Any MIDI channel can be selected Notes (MIDI note numbers 36 - 96) - transpose possible Pitchbend - (bends up and down range dependant on setting on synth) Mod Wheel Filter cutoff frequency (of low pass filter) Volume Sustain (decay on-off) Arpeggio clock synced to MIDI clock
By default: pitchbend is controlled by pitchbend messages mod wheel is controlled by Mod Wheel (CC#1) and also by Aftertouch messages filter cutoff is controlled by CC#16 Volume is controlled by MIDI volume (CC#7) Sustain is controlled by Sustain (CC#64)
however, any controller or aftertouch or velocity can be mapped to control other things so for example velocity could be mapped to control volume.
Hardware: MIDI In & Thru sockets Push button (for programming the MIDI setup) Setups are stored in non-volatile memory (Eeprom)
The kit comprises the following items: Circuit board - fits in the base of the Jupiter-4 Small pack - contains DIN sockets and mounting hardware Large pack - contains cable assemblies User instructions - How to change from default settings and general instructions Fitting instructions - step by step fitting guide plus diagrams of where to connect what
