The Multi-Timbral Mode
When the Multi-Timbral mode is ON, MIDI data arriving
on several channels can be received. This allows you to
simultaneously play several of the piano's internal
sounds.
* When the Multi-Timbral Mode is OFF
Data that arrives on the specified Receive channel (see
page 10) 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 deter-
mined by the Program Change message that is
received on the relevant channel. The correspondence
between Program Change Numbers and Voices is
shown on page 12.
While holding down the Transpose button, press the
Pipe Organ button to turn the Multi-Timbral Mode ON
or OFF.

Various Types of Messages
Function
While the Multi-Timbral Mode is ON
* Pedal Messages
Damper, sostenuto and soft pedal messages function
independently for any of these channels: 1, 11, 12, 13,
14 or 15.
* Volume Messages
Volume messages control the volume, and function
independently for any of these channels: 1, 11, 12, 13,
14 or 15. 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 slider on this instrument. When a Volume
message calls for the maximum value, the actual vol-
ume produced will directly reflect the position of the
Volume slider.
Chorus On/Off Messages
Chorus On/Off messages affect independently for
each channel 1, 11, 12, 13, 14 or 15.
Reverb On/Off Messages
Reverb On/Off messages affect all Voices equally,
regardless of whether they are received on channel 1,
11, 12, 13, 14 or 15.
When the Multi-Timbral Mode is "On," the unit will
always be at "Omni OFF."
