Members trevcda Posted March 29, 2015 Members Share Posted March 29, 2015 A quick run through on the manual doesn't turn up anything that would allow you to play an incoming MIDI signal an octave up. That can often be done on a controller keyboard, but a typical digital piano usually has pretty limited MIDI implementation. But remember that the sound of the module is comprised of several tones that can be controlled by the draw bars and that the registrations are set up for upper, lower and pedal keyboards. Between those to features you just might be able to get what you after if you can put the part you want on the same MIDI channel your piano is transmitting on. Better yet, if you keyboard can transmit on multiple channels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members morty77 Posted March 29, 2015 Author Members Share Posted March 29, 2015 Thanks Trevcda I have a Korg Krome 88 key and a Kurzweil PC3 76 key but not sure how to set up the VK8M to do the octave up any help would be appreciated thanx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JeffLearman Posted April 7, 2015 Members Share Posted April 7, 2015 Instead, set up the PC3 to transmit MIDI an octave higher, in that zone. I'm not a Kurz owner, but I believe this is possible; the PC series are pretty full-featured controllers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members delaware dave Posted April 13, 2015 Members Share Posted April 13, 2015 On the PC3 go to setup mode, on the CH/PRG page set the destination to MIDI, on the KEY/VEL page set the transpose to 12ST. This will send the MIDI data one octave up. The OP doesn't specify the model keyboard they are using so it would be difficult to understand if it is possible on that model. I don't believe you can set the VK8m to receive one octave higher than being transmitted from the source so it would probably need to be done from the source keyboard.

Members wesg Posted April 20, 2015 Members Share Posted April 20, 2015 Note that you could also move the organ up an octave simply by changing the registration. Depending on the registration, of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
