Making Global and Other Important Settings — Function

Clock, Transmit Clock, Receive Transpose, Start/Stop

■Clock

Determines whether the PSR-2000/1000 is controlled by its own internal clock or a MIDI clock signal received from an external device. “INTERNAL” is the normal Clock setting when the PSR-2000/1000 is being used alone. If you are using the PSR-2000/1000 with an external sequencer, MIDI computer, or other MIDI device, and you want the PSR- 2000/1000 to be synchronized to the external device, set this function to “EXTERNAL.” In the latter case, the external device must be connected to the PSR-2000/1000 MIDI IN terminal, and must be transmitting an appropriate MIDI clock signal.

■Transmit Clock

Turns MIDI clock transmission on or off. When this is set to “OFF,” no MIDI clock or START/STOP data is transmitted.

■Receive Transpose

When this parameter is set to “OFF,” note data received by the PSR-2000/1000 is not transposed, and when it is set to “ON,” the received note data is transposed according to the current PSR-2000/1000 keyboard transpose

(page 141) setting.

■Start/Stop

Determines whether incoming FA (start) and FC (stop) messages affect song or style playback.

Message Switch

FA, FC

MIDI messages for starting/stop- ping the song or style. The “FA” message corresponds to start, and “FC” corresponds to stop.

SYS/EX. Tx (TRANSMIT).....................

Turns MIDI transmission of MIDI system exclusive message data ON or OFF.

SYS/EX. Rx (RECEIVE) ........................

Turns MIDI reception of MIDI exclusive data generated by external equipment

 

ON or OFF.

CHORD SYS/EX. Tx (TRANSMIT) ......

Turns MIDI transmission of MIDI chord exclusive data (chord detect — root and

 

type) ON or OFF.

CHORD SYS/EX. Rx (RECEIVE)..........

Turns MIDI reception of MIDI chord exclusive data generated by external

 

equipment ON or OFF.

Transmitting MIDI Data — Transmit

This determines which parts will send MIDI data and over which MIDI channel the data will be sent.

Determines the channel for changing transmit settings.

Data Types in the MIDI TRANSMIT/RECEIVE Display

Note

Messages which are generated when the keyboard is played. Each message includes a specific note number which

 

corresponds to the key which is pressed, plus a velocity value based on how hard the key is played.

 

 

Control Change (CC)

Control change data includes pedal and any other controller data.

 

 

Program Change (PC)

Program change data corresponds to voice or “patch” numbers.

 

 

Pitch Bend (PB)

See page 140.

 

 

After Touch (AT)*

With this function, the PSR-2000/1000 senses how much pressure you apply to the keys while playing, and uses that

 

pressure to affect the sound in various ways, depending on the selected voice. This allows you to play with greater

 

expressiveness and add effects with your playing technique.
