CHANGING MIDI

SETTINGS

The keyboard lets you change two MIDI parameters, Tone Map and Keyboard Channel.

Keyboard Channel — sets the channel for sending MIDI data to an external de- vice (Default: 01). The keyboard receives MIDI data on channels 1 through 4 and 10 only. The data received on other channels are ignored. For transmission of MIDI da- ta, you can use any of 16 channels.

1.Repeatedly press TRANSPOSE/ TUNE/MIDI until Keybd Ch appears.

2.Within 5 seconds, press or + to select the channel you want.

Tone Map —sets the range of program change values received/recognized by this keyboard.

1.Repeatedly press TRANSPOSE/

TUNE/MIDI until TonMap=N appears.

2.Within 5 seconds, press or + to select the setting you want.

N: Normal Tone Map. This setting allows receipt of 0 to 99 program changes. Each program change corresponds to one of the key- board’s prerecorded tones.

G: General MIDI Tone Map. This setting allows receipt of all 0 to 127 program changes. Any data over 100 are translated to the closest tone the keyboard has. See “Note Table” on Page 29 for details.

Select G when you listen to General MIDI data from an external device.

NOTES ABOUT THE MIDI IMPLEMENTATION CHART

The “MIDI Implementation Chart” on Page 30 illustrates the details of the key- board’s MIDI function. An O in the chart means that the keyboard has this fea- ture; X means it does not have this fea- ture. The following notes explain what the keyboard can do.

Basic Channel — MIDI uses up to 16 channels to exchange data. As in a TV broadcast, different channels send dif- ferent data. The keyboard can send data in any of 16 channels, but receives data only on channels 1 through 4 or 10.
