Multichannel MIDI in Program
Mode
Program Mode has 16 MIDI Channels that can be used for multichannel MIDI
applications, such as playing multiple Programs at once from an external MIDI controller, or
from a hardware/software sequencer for recording multitrack songs. A different Program can
be selected for each MIDI Channel, and all Channels can be triggered simultaneously from
an external MIDI device.
Changing the MIDI Channel
The current MIDI Channel is shown on the right side of the top line of the Display. Press the
CHANNEL/PAGE Up/Down buttons to change the MIDI Channel. Pressing both of the
CHANNEL/PAGE buttons simultaneously will select MIDI Channel 1.
When playing only a single Program at a time, any Channel can be used.
When playing multiple Programs at once from an external MIDI source, you can select the
Program on each Channel manually, or by receiving Program Change messages on each
Channel from an external MIDI device.
The MIDI OUT and USB ports will transmit MIDI to the selected Channel when the
keyboard is played. This is useful for playing external MIDI instruments or software on a
computer/tablet.
Note: The Aux FX Chains of the Program on the currently selected MIDI Channel are used
for Programs on all Channels.
Multichannel FX
In Program Mode, Multi Mode, and Song Mode, FX resources are shared between the 16
Channels to load all Insert and Aux FX Chains, and two Aux FX Chains can be used by the
Programs on all 16 Channels at one time.
