MIDI Functions
You can make detailed adjustments to MIDI settings.
MIDI Transmit/Receive Channel Selection
In any MIDI control setup, the MIDI channels of the transmitting and receiving devices must be matched
for proper data transfer.
This parameter enables you to specify the channel on which the instrument transmits or receives MIDI
data.
Setting the Transmit Channel
While holding down the [DEMO] button, press and hold the [METRONOME ON/OFF] button,
then press one of the C1–E2 keys.
Setting the Receive Channel
While holding down the [DEMO] button, press and hold the [METRONOME ON/OFF] button,
then press one of the C4–F5 keys.
Local Control ON/OFF
"Local Control" refers to the fact that, normally, the keyboard of the instrument controls its internal tone generator, allowing the inter-
nal voices to be played directly from the keyboard. This situation is "Local Control On," since the internal tone generator is controlled
locally by its own keyboard. Local control can be turned OFF, however, so that the the keyboard of the instrument does not play the
internal voices, but the appropriate MIDI information is still transmitted via the MIDI OUT terminal when notes are played on the key-
board. At the same time, the internal tone generator responds to MIDI information received via the MIDI IN terminal.
While holding down the [DEMO] button, press and hold the [METRONOME ON/OFF] button,
then press one of the A#5 key. Pressing the A#5 key repeatedly toggles between Local Control On
and Off.

NOTE
In Dual, Voice 1 data is transmitted on its
specified channel and Voice 2 data is
transmitted on the next greater channel
number relative to the specified channel.
In this case, no data is transmitted if the
transmit channel is set to "OFF."
NOTE
ALL:
"Multi-timbre" Receive. This allows
simultaneous reception of different parts
on all 16 MIDI channels, enabling the
instrument to play multi-channel song
data received from a music computer or
sequencer.
1+2:
"1+2" Receive. This allows simultaneous
reception on channels 1 and 2 only,
enabling the instrument to play 1 and 2
channel song data received from a music
computer or sequencer.
NOTE
Program change and other like channel
messages received will not affect the
panel settings of the instrument or the
notes you play on the keyboard.
NOTE
Data for the demo song and piano preset
songs cannot be transmitted via MIDI.
NOTE
Default setting: ON
