- Internal: when the PK7/PK5 sequencer is active, it depends on the internal CLOCK, an internal device
which synchronizes the Style, Song and Song Style tempo.
If you want to deactivate the internal CLOCK, the PK7/PK5 Tempo will correspond to that set by an external
device (computer, sequencer) connected via MIDI to PK7/PK5. In this case, select the option External with
the DIAL.
- G.Midi: by setting this General MIDI parameter to ON, the PK7/PK5 becomes compatible with all MIDI
files that are loaded into memory.
If you want to communicate via MIDI with non General MIDI instruments, it is best to set the General MIDI
parameter to OFF. Use the DIAL to toggle between ON and OFF.
- Start/Stop: activating the START/STOP parameter allows the PK7/PK5 to be started by an external
device (computer, sequencer). Use the DIAL to toggle between ON and OFF.
- ChnLock: (ON/OFF) the channel lock parameters locks the MIDI channel configuration of the current
Performance for the entire instrument, overriding the individual settings of all the other Performances. To
use this function, first set the ChnLock parameter to ON, then modify the MIDI channels. The programmed
setting remains intact and applied to the entire instrument. Use the DIAL to toggle between ON and OFF.
- Dump: the DUMP function transmits via MIDI all the data contained in the internal memory of PK7/PK5
via MIDI. This is a second possibility of safeguarding your programmed data, in addition to the opportuni-
ties offered by the DISK function of PK7.
To dump the instrument's internal data to an external device (data filer, computer, sequencer, etc.), proceed
as follows:
1) Connect the PK MIDI OUT port to the MIDI IN port of the external device.
2) Select the DUMP parameter with the + or – buttons of the Sound selection keypad and select the type of data that
you intend to transfer by rotating the DIAL (ALL, SEQ, PERF).
3) Start the recording procedure in the external device.
