parameters.
Local Control
Turns the Local Control for each part on or off. When Local Control is set to "ON," the keyboard of the CVP-900
controls its own (local) internal tone generator, allowing the internal voices to be played directly from the keyboard. If
you set Local to "OFF," the keyboard and controllers are internally disconnected from the CVP-900's tone generator
section so that no sound is output when you play the keyboard or use the controllers. For example, this allows you to
use an external MIDI sequencer to play the CVP-900's internal voices, and use the CVP-900 keyboard to record notes to
the external sequencer and/or play an external tone generator.
