3. Set the transmit channel(s) of your MIDI sequencer
software to match the receive channel of the part(s) you
wish to play.
This setting enables such information to be recorded by
operating the MC-307's keyboard pads, knobs and
Arpeggiator.
Tempo synchronization when using the
MC-307 as a sound module
By setting Sync Mode to "SLAVE" and then
setting parameters such as LFO Rate, Delay Time
and M-FX Rate to be synchronized to the tempo,
you can synchronize these parameters to the
tempo of an external sequencer. However in this
case, the MC-307 will respond to synchronization
messages from the external sequencer and play
back patterns. If you simply want to synchronize
the sounds to the tempo, you should select an
empty pattern that contains no musical data.

Chapter 7 Environment Configuration and
Playing an external MIDI device using
the MC-307
The MC-307 can transmit operations on the keyboard pads
and the controller from its MIDI OUT connector. Recordings
in the respective parts of the MC-307 can also be transmitted
to an external device. In such transmission, MIDI channels 10
and 1 to 7 are assigned to data in parts R and 1 to 7, in this
order.
Setting the external MIDI sound generator channel, the
receiving channel, to one of channels 10 and 1 to 7 enables
playback on the external MIDI device.
MIDI OUT
Part1 Local Tx Sw = Ext
Procedure
1. Set the MIDI channel of the external sound generator to
one of channels 10 and 1 to 7.
Setting it to MIDI channel 10 enables the rhythm set
selected with part R of the MC-307 to be played back.
Setting it to MIDI channels 1 to 7 enables patches
selected with part 1 to 7.
2. Set the local TX switch for each part of the MC-307 to
"EXT" (P. 126).
These settings enables playback information to be
transmitted from the MIDI OUT connector.
3. Play back data on the MC-307 or using the keyboard pad
/controller.
