Thanks for your reply, I understand well what you're saying. Still, my MIDI Implementation Chart (MIC) doesn't state reception of messages like your:

We don't need to delve into that, for now it's more of secondary interest, something I just observed.
Here's what really interests me.
As a whole, there's very little of TRANSMISSION of MIDI data in the manual's Tips and other pieces of text, and especially about Note data being emitted from the AN200. Since I want to explore the AN200 as an arpeggiator, the transmission part is important. Yet, the MIC states the following, and unfortunately I can't copy the column format, but I'm sure you'll get it anyway:
Basic Channel Default, Transmitted: 1-4
Basic Channel Changed, Transmitted: 1-16
Note Number, Transmitted: 1-127
Note Number True Voice, Transmitted: ∗∗∗∗∗∗∗∗∗∗∗∗∗∗
Velocity Note On, Transmitted: 9nH, v=1-127
Velocity Note Off, Transmitted: 9nH, v=0
What is True Voice? Is it the range of note numbers synthesizers will recognize? Over the years, the first thing I always dived into was the the MIC, and still I missed that piece of the puzzle. Shame on me. In this case, and probably in previous ones, I satisfied myself with the two Velocity lines. They indicate that note data is transmitted.
Finally, can somebody please explain what note data is being transmitted, and possibly the True Voice concept as well.
Thanks in advance, Lars
