UIC-MIDI

What is UIC-MIDI?

PARTNER-CTR UIC-MIDI

PARTNER-CTR UIC-MIDI (henceforth referred to as simply UIC-MIDI) is the interface for communications between a PC and a test unit and other CTR development hardware via USB connections. The device also has a MIDI-IN terminal for connection of MIDI devices.

It comes with a built-in flash card with the same memory capacity as a 16 Gbit CTR Flash Card.

• CCI files can be written to this flash card and executed on test units and other CRT development hardware.
• The device does not have a built-in CTR Sub-card, but you can open the case and install one

Note: For details, see the setup manual that comes bundled with the UIC-MIDI.

UIC-MIDI can be used for the following purposes:

• For MIDI previewing in combination with the PARTNER-CTR Debugger or the CaptureDebugger.
• For MIDI previewing and sound previewing in combination with a CTR test unit.

By combining the UIC-MIDI with a CTR test unit, you can prepare various preview playback environments for sounds without using PARTNER-CTR Debugger (CaptureDebugger).

How to use the UIC-MIDI

Preparation

To use the UIC-MIDI, first install the PARTNER-CTR UIC-MIDI USB driver. (Refer to the PARTNER-CTR UIC-MIDI setup manual.)

MIDI preview playback using PARTNER-CTR Debugger and UIC-MIDI

1. Provide a power supply to the UIC-MIDI by attaching an AC adapter or a USB cable connected to a PC
2. Attach a MIDI cable to the UIC-MIDI that can connect to MIDI devices.
3. Connect the UIC-MIDI to a PARTNER-CTR Debugger or a CaptureDebugger.
4. Use the PARTNER-CTR software to load and execute SoundPlayer-TS.cci.
5. Display the Preview Bank screen and load the pertinent banks.
6. Send a Note-On signal with the MIDI device and confirm that the loaded banks can play.

MIDI preview playback using a CTR test unit and UIC-MIDI

1. Write SoundPlayer-TS.cci to the UIC-MIDI.
   • You can write using PARTNER-CTR Debugger / CaptureDebugger just like you would to a normal CTR flash card.
   • To write to the UIC-MIDI you need to provide a power supply by attaching an AC adapter or a USB cable connected to a PC.
2. Attach a MIDI cable to the UIC-MIDI that can connect to MIDI devices.
3. Attach the AC adapter to the UIC-MIDI (for power supply).
4. Attach the UIC-MIDI to the CTR test unit.
5. Display the Preview Bank screen and load the pertinent banks.
6. Send a Note-On signal with the MIDI device and confirm that the loaded banks can play.

Sound preview playback using a CTR test unit and UIC-MIDI

1. Write HioSoundPlayer.cci to the UIC-MIDI.
2. Attach the UIC-MIDI to a USB cable connected to a PC.
3. Attach the AC adapter to the UIC-MIDI (for power supply).
4. Attach the UIC-MIDI to the CTR test unit.
5. Use PARTNER-CTR Debugger or CaptureDebugger to check that you can play sounds and load sound archives, operating them just like HioSoundPlayer.
