Set the MCS2 to the user assignments shown in the table at left as you

Assignment
Function
Stop the RX21.
Continue from where you stopped.
Start the RX21 from the beginning.
A footswitch connected to FS1 will turn the TX7
portamento on and off.
The CS2 will control the tempo of the RX21.
The CS1 will be used to send Portamento Time
messages to the TX7.
MIDI Channel
| The CP80M transmission channel is fixed at 1,
which means the TX7 will have to be set to
receive channel 1. Therefore the control
messages we send must also be on channel 1.
Make sure the TX7 is set to accept channel 1 (or is set to OMNI ON)
and CMB
is showing in the TX7 display. Set the RX21 to external clock.
(See the TX7 and RX21 owner's manuals.) Turn the CP80M MIDI ON
and SPLIT OFF.
When you press PS1 the RX21 will begin play. Move CS2 to change
the tempo of the RX21. PS3 will stop the RX21, PS2 will continue from
the stopping point and PS1 will start again from the beginning.
Playing the CP80M will sound the TX7. A footswitch plugged into FS1
will turn portamento on and off, and CS1 will change the portamento
depending on the Pitch Bend Range and Modulation Wheel Sensitivity
settings of the TX7. You can select TX7 voices by pressing Program
Change switches 1-8.
Many variations on the above are possible. The next chapter "Ideas and Suggestions" will give additional
setups and settings you will want to experiment with.
