Setting the MIDI Out Mode

By setting the MIDI Out Mode, you can select to have a more suitable (to the external MIDI device) selection of MIDI data be output from the MIDI Out connector when you make tone changes on the FP-3.

Three settings for the MIDI Out Mode are available.

“MIDI Out Mode 1” is the power-up default setting.
