Transferring Performance Data To and From Another Instrument

By connecting the PSR-E313/YPT-310 to other MIDI devices or a computer,
the performance data of the instrument can be used on those other MIDI
devices or computer, and also the performance data from other MIDI devices
and computer can be received and sounded with the PSR-E313/YPT-310.

When the instrument is connected with another MIDI device, it

transmits/receives performance data.

When the instrument is connected with a computer, it transmits/

receives performance data.

MIDI settings

These settings should be made when transmitting/receiving performance
data to a connected MIDI device or computer.

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

On ........ This is the normal setting in which notes played on the instru-

ment’s keyboard are sounded by the internal tone generator
system. Data received via the instrument’s MIDI terminal
will also be played by the internal tone generator.

Off ....... With this setting the instrument itself produces no sound

(keyboard performance, Harmony, or Style playback), but the
performance data is transmitted via the MIDI terminal. Data
received via the instrument’s MIDI terminal will also be
played by the internal tone generator.

You can set the Local Control in the Function Settings (page 59).

• If you can’t get any sound

out of the instrument, Local
Control may be the most
likely cause. Playing the
keyboard results in no
sound when Local is set to
OFF.
