Set the MIDI Channel

MIDI features sixteen MIDI channels, numbered 1-16. Even

after the MIDI cables are connected, the connected devices

must be set to use the same MIDI channels, otherwise no

sound will be produced. When the DP-1000 is turned on,

Channel “1” is selected.

To make the setting, while holding down

the [Key Touch/Demo Song] button, press

any key from C5 to D#6.

The sequence of keys C5-D#6 corresponds to MIDI

Channels 1-16. Refer to “Functions Assigned to the

Keyboard” (p. 24).

Here the DP-1000’s MIDI channel for sending/receiving

is both set to 10.

Local On/Off

With the keyboard connected to a MIDI sequencer, keyboard

performances can be recorded to the sequencer; the

sequencer can also be used to play back performances.

fig.6-05.e

With the sequencer’s “Thru” function on, the same notes

may be sounded twice.

This is because the keyboard’s performance data arrives at

the sound generator via two different routes, (1) and (2). This

can cause the sound to become strange, and also puts strain

on the instrument’s polyphonic capabilities. To prevent this

from happening, route (1) must be separated, by means of

what is called “Local Off.”
