Preset MIDI settings (templates)
The Tyros2 gives you a set of comprehensive, flexible MIDI controls. It also gives you a set of ten pre-programmed
templates that let you instantly and easily reconfigure the instrument to match your particular MIDI application or external
device. Call up these templates from the [FUNCTION] → MIDI display (next page).
Template name Descriptions
ALL PARTS Transmits all parts including the keyboard parts (RIGHT 1, 2, 3, LEFT).
Basically the same as "ALL PARTS" with the exception of how keyboard parts are managed.
KBD & STYLE The right-hand parts are handled as a "UPPER" instead of RIGHT 1–3 and the left-hand part is
handled as a "LOWER."
In this setting, the Tyros2 functions as a "master" keyboard, playing and controlling one or more
Master KBD1
connected tone generators or other devices (such as a computer/sequencer).
Basically the same as "Master KBD1" above, with the exception that Aftertouch messages are
Master KBD2
not transmitted.
Playback or recording (Song, Style, Multi Pad, etc.) synchronizes with an external MIDI clock
instead of the Tyros2's internal clock. This template is called up when you wish to set the tempo
Clock Ext.A
on the MIDI device connected to the Tyros2. Playback or Recording of the Tyros2 synchronizes
with an external clock received via MIDI A.
MIDI accordions allow you to transmit MIDI data and play connected tone generators from the
MIDI Accord1 keyboard and bass/chord buttons of the accordion. This template lets you play melodies from
the keyboard and control style playback on the Tyros2 with the left-hand buttons.
Basically the same as "MIDI Accord1" above, with the exception that the chord/bass notes you
MIDI Accord2
play with your left hand on the MIDI Accordion are recognized also as MIDI note events.
MIDI pedal units allow you play connected tone generators with your feet (especially convenient
MIDI Pedal1 for playing single note bass parts). This template lets you play/control the chord root in style
playback with a MIDI pedal unit (connected to MIDI B only).
This template lets you play the bass part for style playback by using a MIDI pedal unit (connect-
MIDI Pedal2
ed to MIDI B only).
MIDI OFF No MIDI signals are sent or received.
