7. MIDI LOCAL CONTROL ON/OFF

This function is used to control whether or not the sound from the piano will be heard when you play the keyboard. When MIDI LOCAL CONTROL is set to “on” you will hear the CN2 piano when you play. When MIDI LOCAL CONTROL is set to “off” you will not hear any sound from the CN2 piano when you play but the CN2 piano’s keyboard data will be transmitted through the MIDI jacks to an external MIDI device.

(1)Press the “LOCAL” key while holding down the METRONOME and SOUND SELECT buttons.

(2)While still holding down the METRONOME and SOUND SELECT buttons, pressing the “off” key sets the Local Control to “off”. If you press the “on” key, this function returns to “on”.

8.TURNING MULTI-TIMBRAL MODE ON/OFF

Normally, the procedure described in the MIDI CHANNEL SELECT section is used to transmit or receive data on only one MIDI channel (any one of 1 through 16). But by turning the Multi-Timbral function “on”, you can receive data on more than one MIDI channel and simultaneously play a different sound on each channel. With this feature, you can connect the CN2 piano to an external MIDI recorder or personal computer to create performances with a variety of timbres.
