Receive Channel & Receive Mode
The PSR-730/630 can simultaneously receive data on all 16 MIDI channels,
allowing it to function as a 16-channel multi-timbral tone generator. The Receive
Channel and Receive Mode functions determine how each channel will respond to
received MIDI data.
Receive Channel
The “Receive Ch” function selects a MIDI channel to which a receive mode is to
be assigned via the Receive Mode function, below. First select a receive channel,
then the receive mode for that channel. Any of the standard MIDI channels — 1
through 16 — can be specified.

To avoid MIDI loops
which can cause op-
erational errors, check
the PSR-730/630 Lo-
cal Control setting
(page 127), and the
MIDI THRU settings
of any external MIDI
devices.
MIDI transmit track
settings will be re-
tained even after turn-
ing the power off. See
page 152 for the de-
tails.
The channels set for
Rhythm1/Tr1-
Phrase2/Tr8 will be
used to transmit ac-
companiment data
when the PSR-730/
630 is in Style Mode,
and to transmit song
track data when the
PSR-730/630 is in
Song Mode.
