Paul feels this EVM module is a game changer. It signals a new era in Arranger Technology.
It is a fantastic addition to any arranger setup.

I am tempted to get one.

Tnx Tapas,
I'll spread the word. 👍

Thanks Gunnar.

Hope you can all join in live.

Tnx.
Friday is a very busy day here due to special circumstances, so I'm not sure if I reach the stream at time.
Hopefully it will be saved online to be watched later for those who don't manage to participate live.
Tnx for the reminder. 👍

Here is Leigh showing how to connect an Apple iPad wirelessly to the EVM.
You need to download an App called RealVNC Viewer.

There is no lag. This means if you already have an iPad there is no need to buy the 15.6” touch screen from Ketron.

Here is Adam Whittle from SCAN Keyboards & Pianos demonstrating the Ketron EVM.

Frank Ventresca is the official Ketron Dealer in the US. You can get a great deal from Frank.

Paul Carman will be hosting several webinars on the Ketron EVM module.

That's news to me! How long has this been the case?

Hi Ted,


Audio Works Pro (CT) is listed as an official dealer for Ketron products in the US in AJ’s AJAMSONIC website.

The other 3 dealers mentioned in the US are:

Khelly’s Music (MA)
Larry Read (TX)
Washington Music Center (MD)


Of course, no one beats Frank’s exclusive deals.

Paul Carman posted a short tutorial showing how you can design VOICE1 to be a User Voice with up to 3 layers.

Similarly VOICE2 can be designed to have up to 3 layers.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rxOP-EDcu4A


Of course you can play both VOICE1 and VOICE2 together to create massive 6 layer combinations.


Ketron added an interesting twist on the ways you can morph from VOICE1 to VOICE2.

You can change the speed of how slow or fast this merging happens.

The EVM Module could become Ketron’s best seller. It may compel Yamaha to design something similar.

Paul Carman posted a short YouTube Tutorial showing how to connect the Ketron EVM Module to the Yamaha Genos2.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BK3aDnWNTLA


1.
Connect the MIDI OUT of the Genos2 to the MIDI IN of the KVM.

Genos2 will act as a MIDI Transmitting Device.
EVM will act as a MIDI Receiving Device.

2.
Connect the stereo audio out of the KVM to the stereo line inputs of the Genos2

3.
MIDI Settings for KVM

MENU | MIDI | EDIT | Rx (Receive MIDI messages)

Set Right Voice to MIDI Channel 1
Set Left Voice to MIDI Channel 2. This controls the lower voices and the styles.

4.
MIDI Settings for Genos2

MENU | MENU2 | MIDI | Transmit

Set Right1 = MIDI Channel 1
Set Left = MIDI Channel 2


Set Right2 = off
Set Right3 = off


MIDI | SYSTEM | Local Control

Left = Uncheck (Turn Local Control Off). When you play the lower keyboard, no sound will come from the Genos2. It would transmit MIDI messages to play the styles on the KVM


Right1 = Uncheck (Turn Local Control Off). When you play any Right1 voice, no sound will come from the Genos2. It will transmit MIDI messages to the KVM. You will hear the Right Voice being played through the KVM.

Note: While the Left and Right1 voices are being played through the KVM, you can still layer the Right2 and Right3 voices from the Genos2.


5.
You can save different MIDI settings within each Registration.
