Playing Wk4 With A Master Keyboard - General Music WK4 Owner's Manual

Playing WK4 with a master keyboard

ACTIVATE THE COMMON CHANNEL
The master keyboard must transmit on the same
MIDI channel as the Common channel assigned
to WK4. The WK4 Common Channel must be
active.
By transmitting across the Common Channel, the
master keyboard simulates the WK4 keyboard.
1. Program the WK4 Common Channel. Press
MIDI in the EDIT section to enter «Edit MIDI».
2. Press F5 («Common/Arrg.») to go to the
«Common/Arrangement» page.
3. Assign a MIDI channel and a MIDI port to the
Common Channel.
The Common channel assignment is a gen-
eral setting and it is not memorized to a Per-
formance.
4. Press ESCAPE to exit «Edit MIDI».
5. Program the master keyboard to transmit on
the same channel as the WK4 Common
Channel. Consult the owner's manual of the
master keyboard for information regarding the
assignment of the transmission channel.
