1. INTRODUCTION

i5CMv21 (i5 Control Module, Version 2.1) is a shareware programme devoted to control via MIDI the i5M/S Arranger/Keyboard of Korg in the two Arrangement Play and Song Play working modalities.
Designed for Windows 95/98 operating systems the programme can also be used for the partial control of Korg keyboards having the same MIDI facilities of the i5M/S and for customizing the files Arrangement, Style and Program of the i-series (i1, i2, i3, i4S, i5S, i5M, ix300) (functions Cut, Copy, Paste).
The application, by using mouse and/or keyboard, allows user to select, easily and quickly, from the pages shown on the screen of the PC, all the arrangements and programs stored in the i5M/S (arrangements banks A, B, programs banks A, B, C, D, E, Drum, Percussion) and those available as files (.Arr and .Pcg, bank U).
A particular search function allows the selection of the desired arrangement by typing the relevant identification code (ID) made up of a 3 to 5 digits number that is automatically assigned by the programme.
In addition it is possible to edit a highligthed arrangement and to modify all parameters as well as those of Global Parameters. 
The Arrangements and Programs collections, normally available on the market, can be stored on the PC hard-disk and recalled when necessary without using the floppy-disk.
A screen keyboard can be used to send notes and chords directly from the pc.
Some standard GM MIDI functions are also available (pages of Program, Keyboard).
Italian and English are available as working languages.
i5CMv21 is compatible with i5CMv11/12 previous versions. All the programmes can operate at the same time as they share the same output MIDI device.
The User's Guide is available on line.
