Connecting to Other Devices

When you have a MIDI sequencer connected, set this parameter to
Local Off.

Since the Thru function of your sequencer will normally be turned
on, notes played on the keyboard or played back by the recorder
will be transmitted to the sound generator by the two routes (1) and
(2) shown in the illustration, causing notes

to be sounded in duplicate or to be cut off unnaturally. To prevent
this, the setting called “Local Off” is used to disconnect the route in
(1).

Local On:

The keyboard and recorder are connected to the internal sound
generator.

Local Off:

The keyboard and recorder are not connected to the internal sound
generator. No sound will be produced by the keyboard when it is
played.

1.

Enter Function mode, choose “L. Ct”(p. 55).

2.

Press the [-] or [+] button to switch “On” or “OFF.”

This setting specifies the MIDI channel on which the HP305/HP302

will transmit. MIDI uses sixteen “MIDI channels,” which are

numbered 1 through 16. By connecting MIDI devices and specifying

the appropriate MIDI channel for each device, you can play or select

sounds on those devices.

The HP305/HP302 will receive all sixteen channels (1–16).

1.

Enter Function mode, choose “Ch” (p. 55).

2.

Press the [-] or [+] button to edit the setting.

When set to “OFF,” none of the data describing what you play

on the keyboard will be transmitted.

When Composer MIDI Out is “On,” you can send performance data

recorded with the HP305/HP302 to a connected MIDI device or

computer.

1.

Enter Function mode, choose “Out”(p. 55).

2.

Press the [-] or [+] button to switch “On” or “OFF.”
