O
Notes
when
using the
Minus-One
function
When
the
Minus-One
function
is
being
used, the
W-50
cannot be played
with
the
MIDI messages
sent
from
the
MIDI
IN
or
SMF
player. This,
however, does
not
mean
that
all
MIDI
messages
are ignored.
Even
when
the
Minus-One
function
is
being
used, the
W-50
receives
MIDI
messages
for
sound
selection.
If
the
music
data being played contains
sound
selection
messages,
sounds
on
the
W-50
will
be automatically
changed
in
accordance
with
the
messages.
