Changing MIDI Settings
You can use this keyboard in combination with an external sequenc-

NAVIGATE CHANNEL (Default: 4)
When MIDI messages are received from an external device for play
on this keyboard, the navigate channel is the channel whose note data
appears on the display and is used to light keyboard keys. You can
select one channel from 1 to 8 as the navigate channel. Since this set-
ting lets you use the data on any channel of commercially available
MIDI software to light the keyboard keys, you can analyze how dif-
ferent parts of an arrangement are played.
1.
Press the TRANSPOSE/TUNE/MIDI button until the
NAVIGATE CHANNEL screen appears.

The navigate channel automatically changes to 1 whenever you turn MIDI
IN CHORD JUDGE.
To turn off specific sounds before playing back MIDI data
that is being received
<<Navigate channel on/off>>
While playing MIDI data, press the RIGHT/TRACK 2 button.
• This cuts the sound of the navigate channel, but keyboard keys
continue to light in accordance with the channel's data as it is re-
ceived. Press RIGHT/TRACK 2 button again to turn the channel
back on.
<<Next lower channel from navigate channel on/off>>
While playing MIDI data, press the LEFT/TRACK 1 button.
• This cuts the sound of the channel whose number is one less than
the navigate channel, but keyboard keys continue to light in accor-
dance with the channel's data as it is received. Press LEFT/TRACK
1 button again to turn the channel back on.
Example: If the navigate channel is channel 4, the above operation
turns off channel 3. If the navigate channel is channel 1 or 2,
the above operation turns off channel 8.
