Local Control

This function lets you enable or disable keyboard control over the PSR-280’s
voices. This would come in handy, for example, when recording notes to MIDI
sequencer. If you are using the sequencer to play back the voices of the PSR-280,
you would want to set this to “off” — in order to avoid getting “double” notes,
both from the keyboard and from the sequencer. Normally, when playing the PSR-
280 by itself, this should be set to “on.”
1Select the local control on.
