Details: The track transmit channel assignments can
normally be left at their default settings — i.e.
track 1 = channel 1, track 2 = channel 2, etc.
This means that there is an easy-to-follow one-
to-one correspondence between the sequencer
tracks and the receive channels of your multi-
play setups.
This function becomes most useful when the
SY55 sequencer data is used to play external
MIDI tone generators or keyboards in addition
to the internal tone generator system. The track
transmit channel function allows you to match
the SY55 transmission channels to the receive
channels of your external tone generator/key-
board setup.
