The Multi-Timbral Mode
When the Multi-Timbral mode is ON, MIDI data arriving on
several channels can be received. This allows you to simul-
taneously play several of the piano's internal sounds.
e When the Multi-Timbral Mode is OFF
Data that arrives on the specified Receive channel (see
page 11) is received and used to play the currently selected
Voice.
When the Multi-Timbral Mode is ON
Of any MIDI data that arrives, that which arrives on
channels 1, 11, 12, 13, 14 and 15 is received. Data on all
other channels is ignored.
The Voice that is used to play the notes will be determined
by the Program Change message that is received on the
relevant channel. The correspondence between Program
Change Numbers and Voices is shown on page 13.
While holding down the FUNCTION
button, press the
PIPEORGAN button to turn the Multi-Timbral Mode ON or

How Various Types of Messages Function While the
Multi-Timbral Mode is ON
* Pedal Messages
Damper, sostenuto and soft pedal messages function inde-
pendently for any of these channels: 1,11,12,13,140r15.
* Volume Messages
Volume messages control the volume, and function inde-
pendently
for any of these channels: 1, 11,12, 13, 14 0r15.
Such messages, however, have no effect on what is played
on this instrument's keyboard.
The actual volume obtained is determined by both the
value of the Volume message, and the position of the
Volume knob on this instrument. When a Volume message
calls for the maximum value, the actual volume produced
will directly reflect the position of the Volume knob.
Chorus On/Off Messages
Chorus On/Off messages affect independently for each
channel 1, 11, 12, 13, 14 of 15.
Reverb On/Off Messages
Reverb On/Off messages affect all Voices equally, regard-
less of whether they are received on channel 1, 11, 12, 13,
14 0r15.
* When the Multi-Timbral Mode is "On," the unit will
always be at "Omni OFF."
