MIDI Connections

To use a computer or other MIDI device to record and
playback the MIDI data produced by this keyboard,
you must connect the MIDI IN and MIDI OUT
terminals of both devices in order to send and receive
data.
There is a third MIDI terminal named MIDI THRU,
which passes any MIDI messages received by the
MIDI IN

terminal on to another device.

MIDI Settings

1 Send Channel

Use this setting to specify one of the MIDI channels
(1 through 16) as the Send Channel for sending
MIDI messages to an external device.

2 Accomp/Song MIDI Out

Use this setting to specify whether or not MIDI
messages for the piano’s auto accompaniment and
song memory playback should be sent.

3 MIDI IN Chord Judge

on accompaniment range MIDI Note On messages
received from an external device.

4 Local Control

This setting controls whether or not power is cut off
internally from the piano’s keyboard and sound
source. Turning off Local Control cuts off power to
the keyboard and source, which means that the piano
does not produce any sound when played. This
comes in handy when you want to turn off the piano’s
keyboard and use its auto accompaniment feature to
accompany an external sequencer or other device.
