7. CHANNEL MUTE

This determines which MIDI channels are activated to receive MIDI information when the Multi-Timbral mode is set to on. You can activate or deactivate each of the 16 channels individually.

Press the STRINGS button while holding down the TOUCH and the TRANSPOSE buttons.

The display alternatively shows “P01” (= Play 01) and “On”. This means channel 1 is activated.

Use the VALUE buttons to toggle on and off.

To turn on and off the other channels, use the 16 leftmost white keys to select a desired channel. The display will show “P02” through “P16”.

Then use the VALUE buttons to turn them on and off.

NOTE

When the Multi-timbral mode is set to off, the “Channel Mute” function

 

can not be selected.

8. SENDING PROGRAM CHANGE NUMBERS

This function allows the CA piano to transmit program change numbers beyond the 40 pre-defined numbers transmitted by the sound select buttons. Using this function, you can send any number from 1 to 128.

Press the VOCAL button while holding down the TOUCH and the

TRANSPOSE buttons.

The display alternatively shows “PG#” (= Program #) and a program change

number. Use the VALUE buttons to change the number.

To send the program change number, press both VALUE buttons simultaneously.
