Table 6-3 KB3 MIDI Controller Assignments
Local Keyboard Channel
The local keyboard channel enables the K2600 to receive MIDI information on a single channel,
then rechannelize that information so you can play and control all eight zones of a setup, even if
your MIDI source transmits on only one channel. When youÕre in Program mode, the local
keyboard channel remaps incoming information to the K2600Õs current channel (the one shown
in the top line of the display).
The LocalKbdCh parameter (on the RECEIVE page in MIDI mode) deÞnes the local keyboard
channel. When youÕre in Program mode, and playing a KB3 program, you may want to leave
LocalKbdCh set to None, which is its default value. In this case the MIDI Controller messages
for KB3 control listed in Table 6-3 are certain to work.
There are some possible disadvantages to this, however. First, the K2600 doesnÕt relay incoming
MIDI to its MIDI Out port. Perhaps more importantly, if you change the channel on your MIDI
source, the K2600 plays the program on the channel used by your MIDI sourceÑregardless of
the K2600Õs current channel. For example, if your MIDI source transmits on Channel 1, and you
set the K2600Õs current channel to 2, youÕll still play the program assigned to Channel 1. If thatÕs
the way you like it, thereÕs no problem.
You may Þnd it more convenient to use the local keyboard channel. In this case, the K2600
remaps incoming MIDI to the K2600Õs current channel, so in Program mode, youÕll always play
the program on the K2600Õs current channel. Incoming MIDI also gets sent to the K2600Õs MIDI
