Local Control ON/OFF
“Local Control” refers to the fact that, normally, the F11/F01 keyboard controls its
internal tone generator, allowing the internal voices to be played directly from the key-
board. This situation is “Local Control On,” since the internal tone generator is con-
trolled locally by its own keyboard. Local control can be turned OFF, however, so that
the F11/F01 keyboard does not play the internal voices, but the appropriate MIDI
information is still transmitted via the MIDI OUT connector when notes are played on
the keyboard. At the same time, the internal tone generator responds to MIDI informa-
tion received via the MIDI IN connector. Press the C5 key while holding the [BGM]
button (see Quick Operation Guide).
Program Change ON/OFF
Normally the F11/F01 will respond to MIDI program change numbers received from
an external keyboard or other MIDI device, causing the correspondingly numbered
voice to be selected on the corresponding channel (the keyboard voice does not
change). The F11/F01 will normally also send a MIDI program change number when-
ever one of its voices is selected, causing the correspondingly numbered voice or pro-
gram to be selected on the external MIDI device if the device is set up to receive and
respond to MIDI program change numbers. This function makes it possible to cancel
program change number reception and transmission so that voices can be selected on
the F11/F01 without affecting the external MIDI device. Press the C#5 key while hold-
ing the [BGM] button (see Quick Operation Guide).
Control Change ON/OFF
Normally the F11/F01 will respond to MIDI control change data received from an
external MIDI device or keyboard, causing the voice on the corresponding channel to
be affected by pedal and other “control” settings received from the controlling device
(the keyboard voice is not affected only when you select 1-16 channels on F11). The
F11/F01 also transmits MIDI control change information when the pedal or other
appropriate controls are operated. This function makes it possible to cancel control
change data reception and transmission so that, for example, the F11/F01’s pedal and
other controls can be operated without affecting an external MIDI device. Press the D5
key while holding the [BGM] button (see Quick Operation Guide).
