(Control Out)
What Is a Control Out Signal?/
Equipment Connections
The Control Out signal is a signal that is output from the
CONT OUT port for one second after playback of audio
phrases, MIDI phrases, pattern phrases, and song phrases.
You can use it to control external equipment, using the
timing at which phrase playback ends.
You can set the time that is to pass after phrase playback
before output is made to anything from 0 seconds to 59
minutes 59 seconds. The setting is made separately for
individual phrases.
The Control Out specifications are no-voltage/make-contact,
with a make-contact time of 1 second and a contact capacity
of a maximum of DC 30 V at 5 A.
Please be aware that if you cancel phrase playback partway
through, no Control Out signal is output.

Control Out Signal Output During Playback of
Pattern Phrases and Song Phrases
Both pattern phrases and song phrases (p. 62, p. 65) are each
handled as single phrases, so the Control Out signal is output
after phrase playback ends.
Control Out Signal Output During Dual Mono
Mode Playback
Note that no Control Out signal is output during Dual Mono
mode playback (because the Control Out setting (p. 59) is not
valid).
At this time, if the Busy Out setting has been made, the left-
channel Busy Out signal is output from the BUSY OUT port,
and the right-channel Busy Out signal is output from the
CONT OUT port.
AR-3000R Settings
The setting for the Control Out signal is made separately for
individual phrases.
When you make the Control Out setting, in addition to
making the setting for whether the signal is output, you can
also set the time until output after phrase playback (the offset
time) to anything from 0 seconds to 59 minutes 59 seconds.
fig.15-04e (Control Out)
The setting for Control Out is made with Phrase Settings.
Refer to “Control Out” (p. 59).
During the offset time, when phrase playback ends due to
the next playback instruction, operation will proceed
according to the setting information for the phrase played
back afterwards. Note that the settings for the first phrase are
deactivated.
