Note
that the

set to
transmit
on any MIDI channel

and equipment
must
therefore
be
set to receive

(OMNI mode
ON). The
DX5
can be
set
to
receive
on
all
channels simultaneously by turning the
OMNI
mode
ON
(P8-J2,
SUBJOB

If
the
OMNI
mode
is
OFF,
specific reception
channels can be
set
independently
for
the

and channel B voice
generators
using the
