MIDI Settings

Use this setting to specify one of the MIDI channels (1 through
16)as the Send Channel for sending MIDI messages to an external device.
2Local Control
This setting controls whether or not power is cut off internally from the digital piano’s keyboard and sound source. Turning off Local Control cuts off power to the keyboard and source, which means that the digital piano does not produce any sound when played. This comes in handy when you want to turn off the digital piano’s keyboard and use its auto accompaniment feature to accompany an external sequencer or other device.
