MIDI Functions

Local Control

This function lets you enable or disable keyboard control over the DGX-500/
300's voices. This would come in handy, for example, when recording notes to
MIDI sequencer. If you are using the sequencer to play back the voices of the
DGX-500/300, you would want to set this to "off" — in order to avoid getting
"double" notes, both from the keyboard and from the sequencer. Normally, when
playing the DGX-500/300 by itself, this should be set to "on."
