Local Control ON/OFF

"Local Control" refers to the fact that, normally, the keyboard of the CLP-220 keyboard
controls its internal tone generator, allowing the internal voices to be played directly
from the keyboard. This situation is "Local Control On," since the internal tone gener-
ator is controlled locally by its own keyboard.
Local control can be turned OFF, however, so that the CLP-220 keyboard does not play
the internal voices, but the appropriate MIDI information is still transmitted via the
MIDI OUT connector when notes are played on the keyboard. At the same time, the
internal tone generator responds to MIDI information received via the MIDI IN con-
nector.
Procedure
While holding down the
[DEMO/SONG]
neously, press the C6 key. Pressing the C6 key repeatedly toggles between Local Control
On and Off.

In Dual mode, Voice 1 data is
transmitted on its specified
channel and Voice 2 data is
transmitted on the next greater
channel number relative to the
specified channel. In this mode,
no data is transmitted if the
transmit channel is set to "OFF."
ALL:
A "Multi-timbre" Receive mode
is available. In this mode, the
Clavinova receives different
parts from the connected MIDI
device on any or all 16 MIDI
channels and plays multi-chan-
nel song data.
1+2:
A "1+2" Receive mode is avail-
able. It allows simultaneous
reception on channels 1 and 2
only, enabling the Clavinova to
play 1 and 2 channel song data
received from a music computer
or sequencer.
Program change and other like
channel messages received will
not affect the CLP-220's panel
settings or the notes you play
on the keyboard.
Data for the demo song and 50
piano preset songs cannot be
transmitted via MIDI.
CAUTION
When Local control is turned
OFF, the keyboard of the Clavi-
nova does not play the internal
voices.
