Turning Transmission and

Reception of Control

Changes On/Off

Messages known as “Control Changes” are used to convey to another device information about the instances where you have pressed a pedal, or have turned On/Off the Chorus or Reverb effects.

Each time the power is turned on, the instrument will always be set to “On” (it will transmit/receive all Control Change messages).

If you set it to “Off” the ep-90/70 will no longer send or receive any Control Change messages.

While holding down the [Piano 1] button, [Piano 2] button, and [Harpsichord] button, press the “A5” note to turn the setting On, or the “B5” note to turn the setting Off.

For the notes that correspond to each setting, refer to

“Functions Assigned to the Keyboard” (p. 31).
