What is NTA?
This stands for "Notes To Arranger." The notes you play
on the keyboard of the GW-8 are sent together with
chord information to the arranger. These notes can also
be received via MIDI from an external MIDI keyboard
controller or other device. If you want to use the arranger
without playing the GW-8's keyboard, turn this setting
"ON," and transmit the note messages from your
computer or an external MIDI device to the GW-8.
