Description

Local

ON/OFF

Local control determines whether or not notes played on the instrument are sounded by its internal
tone generator system: the internal tone generator is active when local control is on, and inactive when
local control is off.

External Clock

ON/OFF

These settings determine whether the instrument is synchronized to its own internal clock (OFF), or to
a clock signal from an external device (ON).

Keyboard Out

ON/OFF

These settings determine whether keyboard performance data of the instrument is transmitted (ON) or
not (OFF).

Style Out

ON/OFF

These settings determine whether Style data is transmitted (ON) or not (OFF) during Style playback.

Song Out

ON/OFF

These settings determine whether Song data is transmitted (ON) or not (OFF) during Song playback.

• If you can’t get any sound out of the instrument, this most likely

may be caused by Local Control being set to off.

CAUTION

• If External Clock is ON and no clock signal is being received from

an external device, the song, style, and metronome functions will
not start.
