5. Turn on the Origin 37 using the Power button on the front panel.
6. Your computer should automatically recognize the device. You can then select it as a MIDI input device in your Digital Audio Workstation (DAW) or music software (e.g., Ableton Live).

5.2 Connecting to External MIDI Devices (MIDI OUT)

1. Ensure both the Origin 37 and the external MIDI device are powered off.
2. Connect a standard 5-pin MIDI cable from the "KEYBOARD MIDI OUT" port on the Origin 37 to the MIDI IN port of your external MIDI device (e.g., synthesizer, sound module).
3. Power on the Origin 37, then power on your external MIDI device.
4. Configure your external MIDI device to receive MIDI data on the appropriate MIDI channel.

5.3 Connecting a Sustain Pedal

1. Connect a standard 1/4-inch TS (mono) sustain pedal (not included) to the "Sustain Switch" input on the rear panel.
2. The pedal will function as a sustain control for your MIDI notes.

6. Petunjuk Pengoperasian

6.1 Operasi Dasar

• Playing Keys: Simply press the keys to send MIDI note-on/note-off messages to your connected software or hardware. The keys are velocity-sensitive, meaning the harder you press, the higher the velocity value sent.
• Roda Pitch Bend: Move the wheel up or down to bend the pitch of currently held notes. It automatically returns to the center position.
• Roda Modulasi: Move the wheel to apply modulation effects. This wheel typically stays in the position you leave it. The specific effect controlled depends on your software or hardware instrument's settings.
• Sustain Button: Press to toggle sustain on or off. When active, notes will continue to sound after the key is released, similar to a piano's sustain pedal.
• Oktaf Naik/Turun: Use these buttons to transpose the entire keyboard up or down in octave increments. The LED display will indicate the current octave shift.
• Program Up/Down: These buttons are used to send MIDI Program Change messages, allowing you to switch between different sounds or presets on your connected MIDI device or software.

6.2 Assigning Knobs and Sliders

The 8 knobs and 9 sliders are assignable MIDI controllers. They send MIDI Control Change (CC) messages. The specific CC number each knob/slider sends can be configured. Refer to your software's or hardware's manual for how to map these CC messages to parameters.

To assign a knob or slider:

1. Tekan tombol MIDI/Select button to enter configuration mode.
2. Gunakan Entri Data slider or Oktaf Naik/Turun buttons to navigate through parameters on the LED display.
3. Select the desired knob or slider to assign.
4. Adjust the value (e.g., MIDI CC number) using the Entri Data penggeser.
5. Tekan MIDI/Select again to exit configuration mode and save changes.

Note: Specific assignment procedures may vary. Consult the detailed MIDI implementation chart (if available) or your DAW's manual for advanced mapping.

6.3 Data Entry and Display

The LED display provides visual feedback for various settings and parameters. The Entri Data slider is primarily used to adjust numerical values shown on this display, such as MIDI channel, CC numbers, or program numbers during configuration.

7. Pemeliharaan

• Pembersihan: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the surface of the unit. Do not use abrasive cleaners, waxes, or solvents.
• Penyimpanan: Saat tidak digunakan dalam jangka waktu lama, simpan pengontrol di tempat yang sejuk dan kering, jauh dari sinar matahari langsung dan suhu ekstrem.
• Penanganan: Hindari menjatuhkan unit atau terkena benturan keras.
