Making MIDI Settings

This section describes the MIDI settings you need to make when con-
necting this keyboard to a sequencer, synthesizer, or other external
device. Once connected, you can send and receive data, and even
play back commercially available General MIDI data.
MIDI Settings
GM SYSTEM ON/OFF (Default: on)
The parameters of the executable channel are always initialized when-
ever the GM SYSTEM ON/OFF setting is changed.
GMMMo d e
on: Tones sound within the range prescribed by General MIDI.
oFF: Causes the range of "072 Piccolo" to be raised one octave, and
the range of "032 Acoustic Bass" to be lowered one octave.

KEYBOARD CHANNEL (Default: 01)
This parameter sets the channel for MIDI messages to an external
device. You can set any MIDI channel in the range of 01 to 16 as the
keyboard channel.
K e
MIDI IN CHORD JUDGE ON/OFF (Default: oFF)
Use MIDI IN CHORD JUDGE when you want to use note data re-
ceived from an external device through MIDI IN to play chords. It
comes in handy when you want to control Auto Accompaniment
chord progressions from a computer or other external device.
C h o r d
on: Turns MIDI IN CHORD JUDGE on, which allows chord settings
to be made using keyboard channel note data input through the
MIDI IN terminal when the chord fingering method is selected
by the MODE button.
oFF: Turns MIDI IN CHORD JUDGE off.

LOCAL CONTROL (Default: on)
This setting determines whether or not the keyboard and sound source
of this keyboard are connected internally. When recording to a com-
puter or other external device connected to this keyboard's MIDI IN/
OUT terminal, it helps if you turn LOCAL CONTROL off.
L o c a l
on: Anything played on the keyboard is sounded by the internal
sound source and simultaneously output as a MIDI message from
the MIDI OUT terminal.
oFF: Anything played on the keyboard is output as a MIDI message
from the MIDI OUT terminal, without being sounded by the in-
ternal sound source. Turn LOCAL CONTROL off whenever you
are using the MIDI THRU function of a computer or other exter-
nal device. Also note that no sound is produced by the keyboard
if LOCAL CONTROL is turned off and no external device is con-
nected.
