MIDI

The transmit and receive channels of the Keyboard
parts are set as follows:
Keyboard part
UP1
UP2
UP3
LW1
LW2
MBS
MELODY INT
VOCAL HARMONIST
Note: The VOCAL HARMONIST only transmits and receives set-
ting changes and MIDI note messages. The audio signals it
receives and generates are not converted into pitch informa-
tion.

MIDI System parameters

V-Harm parameters
The V-HARM parameters allow you to specify
whether or not the Vocal Harmonist should send and/
or receive MIDI messages. If you need this, be sure to
also set the correct MIDI channel.
IMIDI TX
G CHANNEL—Use this parameter to assign a MIDI transmit
channel to the Vocal Harmonist part (1~16). If you don't
want these messages to be transmitted, switch off the
[TX¥ON÷OFF] field. The Vocal Harmonist sends (and
receives) only setting changes and note messages that
serve as harmony indications. The note data of your
singing are not transmitted or received.
IMIDI RX
G CHANNEL—Use this parameter to assign a MIDI receive
channel to the Vocal Harmonist part (1~16). If you don't
want these messages to be received, switch off the
[RX¥ON÷OFF] field.

Miscellaneous

Measure indication in the display

When you press the [INTRO] button...
The Arranger plays the introduction of the currently
selected Music Style. The "MEASURE" field on the
main page now counts backwards ("–4", "–3", etc.) to
indicate the Intro's duration.
When you press the [ENDING] button...
While the Ending phrase is playing, the "MEASURE"
field on the main page counts backwards ("–4", "–3",
etc.) to indicate the pattern's duration.

Break Mute function for the ASSIGN SW buttons

G Break Mute—This function can only be accessed via the
ASSIGN SW button you assign it to. When you press that
button, Arranger playback is muted for the remainder of
the current measure. This is great for rock'n'roll songs.

Scale Tuning for Style parts

On the MENU→ TUNING → SCALE TUNE page...
Press the [STYLE¥PARTS] field if the parts played by
the Arranger should be affected by your Scale Tune
settings.

Song/Arranger Start Priority

Normally, when you attempt to start Arranger playback
while a song is being played back, the Arranger does
not respond. The same is true when you try to start
song playback while the Arranger is running. That's
because the [SONG÷ARRANGER¥START¥PRIORITY] func-
tion is on and gives priority to the section that is
already running. You can, however, switch this system
off.
In that case, starting Arranger playback while a song is
running will stop the song and launch Style playback. If
the Arranger is running while you press
[PLAY÷STOP¥®÷ª], the song starts and the Arranger
stops.
Note: This switch does not apply when you record using Arranger
backing: there, both sections can work simultaneously.
Note: START PRIORITY also applies to situations where you (try
to) start Arranger playback using the SYNC [START] function.
Sounds on an (optional) SRX-series
wave expansion board
Some boards contain loops (or grooves) whose tempo is
automatically synchronized to the Arranger or song
tempo.
