MIDI Panic
Although MIDI is very reliable, it is in fact so sophisticated that it is not without its
occasional faults. For example, sometimes a connected tone generator or
synthesizer responds to a Note On message, but not a Note Off message, thus
causing a note to get stuck, which can be quite frustrating, especially in a live
performance setting.
Unexpected sustained notes, sudden losses of volume, and hanging pitch bends
are also common MIDI problems that can happen when using a sequencer with
the P-150 and other MIDI instruments.
The P-150s MIDI Panic feature lets you instantly send note off and other
messages to all connected MIDI devices.

ACTIVATING MIDI PANIC

Hold the [MIDI] button, then press the [REVERB] and
[MODULATION] buttons at the same time.
The MIDI PANIC SEND screen appears briefly when MIDI Panic is activated.
When MIDI Panic is activated, the following messages are sent in sequence over
all MIDI channels: All Notes Off; All Sounds Off; Channel Pressure off; Sustain
Pedal Off; Modulation Off; Pitch Bend (Center); Reset All Controllers.
MIDI Panic has no effect during sending/receiving bulk data or while MIDI Merge is
on.
