MIDI Functions

MIDI Transmit/Receive

Channel

When connecting MIDI instruments, make sure to match

the MIDI channels on the instruments. If the Receive

Channel is set to “4” on the external MIDI instrument, for

example, you should set the Transmit Channel of this

instrument to “4.”

To set the Transmit Channel:

While holding down [DEMO/SONG] and [PIANO/VOICE]

simultaneously, press one of the C1-E2 keys.

To set the Receive Channel:

While holding down [DEMO/SONG] and [PIANO/VOICE]

simultaneously, press one of the C4-F5 keys.

NOTE

Default settings:

• Transmit Channel

Voice 1: Ch1

• Receive Channel

All (Ch1 - Ch16; all channels)

Local Control On/Off

Normally, playing the keyboard will control the internal tone

generator. This situation is “Local Control On.” If you want

to use the keyboard only for controlling an external MIDI

instrument, turn off Local Control. With this setting, no

sound of this instrument will be produced even if you play

the keyboard.

To turn the Local Control On or Off:

While holding down [DEMO/SONG] and [PIANO/VOICE]

simultaneously, press the C6 key once to change the

setting.

Program Change On/Off

Normally on this instrument, selecting a Voice on the panel

transmits the corresponding Program Change over the

specified Transmit Channel. Likewise, receiving a Program

Change message changes the Voice number according to

the Receive Channel setting, without affecting the panel

settings. This status can be changed via the following

operation.

To turn Program Change On or Off

While holding down [DEMO/SONG] and [PIANO/VOICE]

simultaneously, press the C#6 key once to change the

setting.

NOTE

For information on the Program Change number for each

Voice, refer to the “MIDI Reference.”

Control Change On/Off

Normally on this instrument, pressing a Pedal or setting the

Reverb Depth transmits the corresponding Control Change

over the specified Transmit Channel. Likewise, receiving

the Control Change message will affect the performance

expression according to the Receive Channel setting,

without affecting the panel settings. This status can be

changed via the following operation.

To turn Control Change On or Off

While holding down [DEMO/SONG] and [PIANO/VOICE]

simultaneously, press the D6 key repeatedly.

NOTE

For information on the Control Change messages which

can be handled in this instrument, refer to the “MIDI

Reference.”
