MIDI Receive Setting

The PSR-540 can simultaneously receive data on all 16 MIDI channels, allowing it to
function as a 16-channel multi-timbral tone generator. The Receive Channel and
Receive Mode functions determine how each channel will respond to received MIDI
data.

1

Press the [FUNCTION] button.

2

Select “Midi.”

Use the data dial, the [+/YES] button or the [-/NO] button.

3

Press the [NEXT] button to display the MIDI screen.

4

Select “Receive Ch.”

Use the data dial, the [+/YES] button or the [-/NO] button.

5

Press the [NEXT] button to display the MIDI Receive Ch
screen.

6

Set a MIDI Receive Channel and Receive mode.

● Press one of the [TRACK1]-[TRACK16] buttons to select a MIDI channel.

● Select a receive mode with the data dial, the [+/YES] button or the [-/NO]

button.

OFF

No MIDI data is received on channels set to “Off”.

XG/GM

Received MIDI data is sent directly to the PSR-540 tone
generator. If all channels are set to “XG/GM”, the PSR-540
functions as a 16-channel multi-timbral tone generator.

Keybd

Received MIDI data is handled in the same way as data
generated by the PSR-540’s own keyboard. In other words, a
remote keyboard could be used to control the PSR-740/640
AUTO ACCOMPANIMENT functions, etc.

Chord

The note on/off messages received at the channel(s) set to
“Chord” are recognized as the fingerings in the accompaniment
section. The chords to be detected depend on the fingering
mode on the PSR-540. The chords will be detected regardless
of the accompaniment on/off and split point settings on the
PSR-540 panel.

Root

The note on/off messages received at the channel(s) set to
“Root” are recognized as the bass notes in the accompaniment
section. The bass notes will be detected regardless of the
accompaniment on/off and split point settings on the PSR-540
panel.

• The initial default setting

(factory setting) for all
channels is “XG/GM.”

• MIDI receive mode settings

will be retained even after
turning the power off. See
page 135 for details.
