Default This a default setting. It is suitable both for
programming on an external sequencer, and
for playing Pa50SD with a master keyboard.
Master Kbd Select this setting when you are connecting a
mute master keyboard.
Sequencer 1 This setting is for playing a Song (Sequencer 1)
with an external instrument sounds, or for lis-
tening to a Song performed by an external
sequencer using Pa50SD as a sound generator.
Each track (S1 Tr1-16) corresponds to a MIDI
channel with the same number (1-16).
Sequencer 2 As above, but with Sequencer 2.
Accordion 1…3
Select one of these settings when connecting a
MIDI Accordion.
Ext.Seq This setting is for programming a Song on an
external sequencer.
PAGE 5 - MIDI CONTROLSThis page lets you program general MIDI parameters.
Local
The Local parameter turns the keyboard on or off.
Note: The Local parameter is always turned on again each time
you turn the instrument on.
On When you play on the keyboard, MIDI data is
sent to the internal sound generator and to the
MIDI OUT port.
Off The keyboard is connected to the MIDI OUT,
but cannot play the internal sound generator.
This is very useful when working with an
external sequencer, to send notes and control-
lers from the keyboard to the external
sequencer, and then let the sequencer send
them back to the sound generator, without
overlapping. See the MIDI chapter.
Clock
This parameter selects the MIDI Clock source.
Note: The Clock parameter is always set to “Int” each time you
turn the instrument on.
Internal Internal, i.e. the clock generated by the Pa50SD
Sequencer 1 internal metronome.
MIDI External from MIDI. The Pa50SD is slaved to
an external instrument or sequencer, con-
nected to its MIDI IN port. The Start/Stop and
Play/Stop commands, and the metronome
Tempo, cannot be selected from the control
panel of the Pa50SD. Use the external instru-
ment to set the Tempo, and start or stop the
sequencers (Song, Song Play, Backing
Sequence modes) and the arranger (Style and
Backing Sequence modes).
Clock Send
This parameter turns the clock information on the MIDI
OUT on or off.
Off The Pa50SD cannot send the MIDI Clock sig-
nal. You cannot slave another instrument to
the Pa50SD, even when connected to the MIDI
OUT.
MIDI The Pa50SD can send the MIDI Clock signal.
You can slave another instrument to the
Pa50SD Tempo, Start/Stop and Play/Stop com-
mands. Connect the other instrument to the
Pa50SD MIDI OUT port.
PAGE 6 - MIDI IN CHANNELSIn this page, you can assign the Pa50SD tracks to any of the
MIDI IN channels. Use the TRACK SELECT button to switch
from channels 1-8 to channels 9-16.
Channel
You can assign to each channel one of the following tracks:
(Off) No track assigned.
Lower Lower track.
Upper1…3 One of the Upper tracks.
Drum Drum track.
Perc Percussion track.
Bass Bass track.
Acc1…5 One of the Auto-accompaniment tracks.
S1 T1…16 One of Sequencer 1 tracks.
S2 T1…16 One of Sequencer 2 tracks.
Global Special channel to simulate the Pa50SD’s inte-
grated controls (keyboard, pedals, joystick)
with an external keyboard or controller. MIDI
messages coming on this channel are consid-
ered as being generated by Pa50SD’s integrated
controllers.
Control On this special channel, the Pa50SD receives
MIDI messages to remotely select Styles, Per-
formances, STS and Style Elements. See tables
on page 144 and following for more informa-
tion on the received data
