Combination P2: Timbre Parameters

2–1: MIDI
1–1a
1–1b
2–1a
Here you can make MIDI settings for each timbre.
2–1a: MIDI
Timbre 01
Status
This specifies the MIDI and internal tone generator
status.
You can also set Status from the P0– Program Select
page. For more information, please see "Status" on
page 325.
MIDI Channel
Sets the MIDI transmit/receive channel for each
timbre.
Gch: The timbre will use the channel that has been
selected as the global MIDI Channel (Global 1–1a).
When Status is INT, MIDI messages will be received
on the channel you specify here. If this setting is the
same as the global MIDI channel, the internal tone
generator will sound according to the internal settings.
If this is set to EXT or EX2, playing the OASYS will
transmit MIDI messages on the MIDI channel specified
here. (Messages will also be transmitted
simultaneously on the global MIDI channel.)

[Off, INT, EXT, EX2]
[01...16, Gch]
Bank Select MSB (When Status = EX2) [000...127]
Bank Select LSB (When Status = EX2) [000...127]
Specifies the bank number that will be transmitted
when Status is set to EX2. This setting has no effect if
Status is other than EX2.
Timbre Priority
This specifies the voice priority for the timbre.
On (checked): Timbres for which this is checked will
be given priority. If a new note-on would exceed the
available number of voices, a currently-sounding voice
will normally be stopped ("stolen"), allowing the
newly requested voice to be sounded. At this time,
timbres whose "Timbre Priority" is checked are less
likely to have a voice "stolen."
For example if you are layering many timbres, you
would check this setting for timbres that have a
particularly important musical role (such as drums or
bass) and would adversely affect the overall song if
notes were to be stolen from them. However, this
setting will have little meaning if it is turned on for
most or all timbres. It's a good idea to leave this
unchecked for all timbres, and check it only for
important timbres that would cause a conspicuous
problem if notes were to drop out during the
performance.
Timbres 02...16
These are the MIDI-related settings for timbres 2
through 16. They are the same as for timbre 1. See
"Timbre 01".
