MIDI (PC Mode) Settings For Computer Connection

A number of MIDI settings need to be made when you connect the instrument to a computer. The PC Mode item can conveniently make multiple settings for you in one operation. Three settings are available: PC1, PC2, and OFF. Press the [PC] button to call up the PC Mode display, and select PC1 or PC2, as required. The setting you choose will set parameters such as Local ON/OFF, External Clock ON/OFF, and others for optimum opera- tion with a sequencer application on your computer, for example. Refer to page 72 for details about the MIDI settings.

NOTE

•Set the PC mode to PC2 when using Digital Music Notebook* in the supplied CD-ROM.

*“Digital Music Notebook” is a software application for handling songs and scores on your computer. Refer to the application’s online help file for more information.
