Turning Local Control On and Off
This setting effectively determines whether or not the keyboard and pedals of the digital piano are connected to the digital piano’s sound source, as illustrated below.

Local Control
When Local Control is on (the normal setting), anything played on the keyboard is sounded by the internal sound source and simultaneously output from the MIDI OUT terminal. When off, anything played on the keyboard is output from the MIDI OUT terminal only, without being sounded by the sound source.
Local Control can be turned off when you are using the digital piano as the sound source of a connected sequencer or other device, and you want to guard against sound being produced should the digital piano keyboard be pressed accidentally.
To turn Local Control on and off
1. While still holding down the CONTROL button, switch Local Control on and off by pressing one of the keyboard keys illustrated below.
F6 (black key): Off
C4 | G6: On |
•A note does not sound when you press a keyboard key while holding down CONTROL.
❚NOTE
•Note that no sound will be produced from the digital piano’s speakers if you press the keyboard while Local Control is turned off.
•Local Control is turned on automatically whenever you turn on the digital piano power.
