MULTI-TIMBRAL MODE

Multi-timbral On is a setup for 16-channel multi-timbral operation. You can mute the channels separately. Each channel recognizes the program change numbers as listed on page 54. There are two kinds of Multi-timbral On. On1 and On2 have different program change numbers assigned.

Multi-timbral Off turns off the multi-timbral capability. If you would like to have the CE200 piano receive MIDI data on a single channel and ignore all data on the other channels set multi-timbral to “Off”. Remember, if you want the CE200 piano to receive MIDI information from an external device, in this setup you must match the receiving channel with the transmitting channel. Program change numbers are recognized as listed on page 54.

To demonstrate the multi-timbral capability of the CE200 piano, let’s choose Multi-timbral On.

Press the BASS / GUITAR button while holding down the TOUCH and the TRANSPOSE buttons.

Use the VALUE buttons to select Multi-timbral On. The display will read “On1” or “On2”.

Let’s see how this works using an external MIDI device. If you have a keyboard connected to the CE200 piano try playing some notes. You should hear the CE200 piano as you play. If you have a MIDI song player or personal computer with MIDI software connected try sending some MIDI song data with one or more different musical parts to the CE200. Again you should hear the CE200 piano playing all the parts. In multi- timbral mode, if you want to hear a particular sound for each part you transmit to the CE200 you must send the correct Program/sound number from the transmitting MIDI device to the CE200 piano. Please see page 54 for a list of the Program/sound number assignments for the CE200 piano.

If you own a “GM” sound module you’ll probably want to use it as your multi-timbral module instead of the CE200 piano. If you have a hardware sequencer or personal computer but do not own another sound module, you can enjoy sixteen-part multi-timbral capability with only the CE200 piano.
