About Open Plug-in Technology

You can start the Studio Manager for 01X or Multi Part Editor software as either a stand-alone software or a plug-in application in an Open Plug-in

Technology compatible application.

Open Plug-in Technology (OPT) is a newly developed software format that allows control over MIDI devices from a music software sequencer. For

example, this allows you to start up and operate various parts of your music system, such as Plug-in Board editors, and mixing control editors – directly

from an OPT-compatible sequencer, without having to use each separately. This also makes it unnecessary to set MIDI drivers for each application,

streamlining your music production system and making all operations more convenient and seamless.

About the OPT Levels

The client application and its compatibility with OPT can be divided into three levels, as shown below.

Level 1 – OPT Panels provides basic support for opening and displaying OPT control panels that can transmit data via the clients' external MIDI ports.

Typically this allows basic hardware editor control panels to operate properly.

Level 2 – OPT Processors provides support for real-time MIDI processors and panel automation. Typically this allows both real-time and ofﬂine MIDI

effects (e.g. Arpeggiators, transposers etc.) to operate properly and supply automation to OPT panels.

Level 3 – OPT Views provides support for edit views and MIDI processors/panels that require direct access to client sequencer storage structures.

Typically this allows sophisticated MIDI edit views to be supported (e.g. List editors, Auto Accompaniment, Data Checkers etc.).

OPT Level Implementation for the Studio Manager

• Certain operations may not work as expected if there is no corresponding function in the client application (sequencer, etc.). The highest level of implementation for the client appli-

cation is indicated in the OPT logo (which appears along with the version information in the application).

For information on the implementation for the Multi Part Editor, refer to the PDF owner's manual.
