MIDI Transmit Channel SettingsThis setting species the MIDI channel on which this unit will transmit.
MIDI uses sixteen “MIDI channels,” which are numbered 1 through 16. By connecting MIDI devices
and specifying the appropriate MIDI channel for each device, you can play or select sounds on
those devices. This unit will receive all sixteen channels (1–16).

this, you can enable the “Local O”
setting so that the keyboard and internal
sound generator will be disconnected.
On (default) Local Control is on.
The keyboard and internal sound generator are connected.
OFF
Local Control is o.
The keyboard and internal sound generator are disconnected. Playing the keyboard will not
produce sound.

What is MIDI?
MIDI, short for “Musical Instrument Digital Interface,” was developed as a universal standard for the exchange of performance data among electronic musical instruments
and computers.
This unit is equipped with MIDI connectors to let it exchange performance data with external devices. These connectors can be used to connect the unit to an external
device for even greater versatility.
Connection Examples
If you use a MIDI cable to connect this unit’s MIDI Out connector (p. 5) to the MIDI In connec-
tor of your external MIDI sound module, you’ll be able to produce sound on the external
MIDI sound module by playing this unit’s keyboard. As necessary, set the external MIDI sound
module’s receive channel to match this unit’s MIDI transmit channel. External MIDI
