Using the Digital Piano as a MIDI Master Keyboard

Specifying What Each Zone Controls

After you use the  (LAYER) and  (SPLIT) buttons to select a zone configuration, you can turn internal sound source control (INT) and external MIDI device control (EXT) on or off as required for each zone. Use the (INT/ EXT) button to specify what a zone controls.

To specify what a zone controls

1. Press the button that corresponds to the zone whose settings you want to change: (UPPER 1) button, (UPPER 2) button, (LOWER 1) button, (LOWER 2) button.

The lamp of the button you press will light.

2.Use the (INT/EXT) button to specify what you want the zone you selected in step 1 to control.

Pressing the (INT/EXT) button cycles through the available settings, which are indicated by two lamps above the button as illustrated below.

The INT side lamp indicates the internal sound source, while the EXT side lamp indicates an external MIDI device. Keep pressing the button until the lamp(s) of the device(s) you want the zone to control are lit.

3.If you want to configure other zones, repeat steps 1 and 2 of this procedure as required.

NOTE

If you want to use the Digital Piano exclusively as an external MIDI device controller, you can turn off the local control setting (page E-39), which severs the actual connection between its keyboard and the internal sound source.

Zone Setups

In addition to the MIDI channel, you can configure external MIDI device control settings and internal sound source settings (tone selection, DSP settings) for each individual zone.

For the procedure to use to select a tone for each zone, see “Layering and Splitting Tones” (page E-12).

For information about configuring MIDI channel, mixer, DSP, and other detailed settings for each zone, see “Editing Zone Parameters” (page E-28).
