RECEIVE

This display page allows you to specify the MIDI receive mode for each PSR-4000 MIDI channels, and to

specify which types of data will be received via each channel.

RECEIVE MONITOR

The

of the 16 MIDI channels: The dots corresponding to
each channel (1 … 16) flash briefly whenever any
data is received on the channel(s).

CHANNEL

Use either the ▲ and ▼ LCD buttons to the left

of the display, or the

CH LCD [/] control to

select the channel to which you want to assign a
mode or change a data switch setting. The channel
numbers are show in the leftmost column in the
display.

MODE

The

MODE LCD [/] controls select the re-

ceive mode for the currently selected channel. Any
of the following modes can be selected:

OFF

No data will be received on the selected channel.

MULTI

This is the “Multi-Timbre” mode in which the corresponding channel of the internal tone gen-
erator is directly controlled by the received MIDI data.

MIDI BASS

When the AUTO MIDI BASS or MANUAL MIDI BASS ABC accompaniment mode is selected
this receive mode can be selected to allow reception of bass note data from an external MIDI
bass pedal unit or other device.

PANEL CONTROL

When this mode is selected the received MIDI data controls the PSR-4000 panel operations
rather than playing the internal tone generator. Which panel operations are controlled by

Pitch bend, modulation, expression, and sustain control data is also accepted. Program
change and main volume data affects the RIGHT 1 voice only.
