Controlling the AR-3000R Using MIDI Signals (MIDI Control)
Applications
Device-specific ID (MIDI Device ID)
Settings
This sets the MIDI device ID (from 1 through 32). When you
are controlling an external MIDI instrument using MMC and
MTC, you need to set both devices to matching device ID
numbers. Check the device ID of the connected external
MIDI instrument, then set the unit to the same device ID.
Procedure for Setting the MIDI Device ID
For setting procedure, refer to p. 114.
MMC mode (OFF/MASTER/SLAVE)
This sets the MMC Mode to “MASTER.”
OFF:
MMC information is not sent or received.
MASTER:
MMC information is sent. The unit becomes the
master of the external MIDI instrument.
SLAVE:
MMC information is received. The unit becomes the
slave of the external MIDI instrument.
Procedure for Setting the MMC Mode
For setting procedure, refer to p. 111.
Selecting the Sync Source (INTERNAL
or MTC)
This sets the Sync Source to “INTERNAL.”
INTERNAL:
The slave device operates according to the AR-
3000R’s internal time control. Select this to make the unit the
master.
MTC:
The unit operates according to MIDI time code
information from the master device. Select this to make the
unit the slave.
Note that when Sync Source is set to “MTC,” there is no
operation unless MTC information is input from the external
MIDI instrument.

For setting procedure, refer to p. 111.
