Various Settings

Here you can make various MIDI-related settings for the
HP207.
For more about MIDI, refer to “Connecting to MIDI Devices”
(p. 90).
When you have a MIDI sequencer connected, set this
parameter to Local Off.
Since the Thru function of your sequencer will normally be
turned on, notes played on the keyboard or played back by
the recorder will be transmitted to the sound generator by the
two routes (1) and (2) shown in the illustration, causing notes
to be sounded in duplicate or to be cut off unnaturally. To
prevent this, the setting called “Local Off” is used to disconnect
the route in (1).

Local On:

The keyboard and recorder are connected to the
internal sound generator.

Local Off:

The keyboard and recorder are not connected to
the internal sound generator. No sound will be
produced by the keyboard when it is played.

When connecting a unit in the Roland MT series,
you don’t need to switch off Local Control. MT units
transmit Local Off messages when their power is
switched on. If you first switch on the HP207, then
the MT-series device, Local Control is automatically
switched off on the HP207.
his setting specifies the MIDI channel on which the HP207 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.
The HP207 will receive all sixteen channels (1–16).
If you turn this “OFF,” the HP207 will not transmit
MIDI data.
For details on connecting MIDI devices, refer to
“Connecting to MIDI Devices” (p. 90).
When Composer MIDI Out is “On,” you can send
performance data recorded with the HP207 to a connected
MIDI device or computer.
