Set the MIDI Channel

MIDI features sixteen MIDI channels, numbered 1–16.
The connected devices must be set to use the same MIDI
channels, otherwise no sound will be produced.
- In a setup where you wish to play the ep-90/70 and also
have another MIDI-equipped instrument or sound
module play the same notes, you should first set the
channel used for reception on your external device to the
same channel that you have the ep-90/70 set to use for
transmission.
- If using another MIDI keyboard as a master instrument,
and you wish to have the ep-90/70 played by it, you
would need to set the channel used for reception on the
ep-90/70 to the same channel that the master keyboard
will be transmitting on.
- When wishing to have a sequencer play the ep-90/70, you
need to set the channel used or reception on the ep-90/70
to the same channel that the recorded MIDI data is set to
use.
When the ep-90/70 is turned on, Channel "1" is selected.
While holding down the [Piano 1], [Piano 2],
and [Harpsichord] buttons, press the
appropriate key on the keyboard.
The MIDI transmit channel and receive channel will
switch to the number that corresponds to the note you
pressed.
→ For the notes that correspond to each setting, refer to
"Functions Assigned to the Keyboard" (p. 31).
