PSR-A1000
Receiving MIDI Data — Receive
This determines which parts will receive MIDI data and over which MIDI channel the data will be received.
MIDI Receive Parts
Setting Root Note Channels — Root
The note ON/OFF messages received at the channel(s) set to “ON” are recognized as the root notes in the accompaniment
section. The root notes will be detected regardless of the accompaniment ON/OFF and split point settings.
Setting Chord Channels — Chord Detect
The note ON/OFF messages received at the channel(s) set to “ON” are recognized as the chord notes in the
accompaniment section. The chords to be detected depend on the fingering type. The root notes will be detected
regardless of the accompaniment ON/OFF and split point settings. The operation procedure is basically the same as that
of the ROOT display above.
OFF No MIDI data is received.
SONG Normally, the part receiving the MIDI data corresponds to the part/voice used in playing back the song data. Channels 1 - 16
correspond to song channels 1 - 16, respectively.
MAIN The MAIN part is controlled by the MIDI data received on the corresponding channel.
LAYER The LAYER part is controlled by the MIDI data received on the corresponding channel.
LEFT The LEFT part is controlled by the MIDI data received on the corresponding channel.
KEYBOARD
MIDI note data received by the PSR-A1000 plays the corresponding notes in the same way as if they are played on the keyboard.
ACMP RHYTHM1-2 The received notes are used as the accompaniment RHYTHM 1 and RHYTHM 2.
ACMP BASS The received notes are used as the accompaniment BASS.
ACMP CHORD1-2 The received notes are used as the accompaniment CHORD 1 and CHORD 2.
ACMP PAD The received notes are used as the accompaniment PAD.
ACMP PHRASE1-2 The received notes are used as the accompaniment PHRASE 1 and PHRASE 2.
EXTRA PART1-5 There are five parts specially reserved for receiving and playing MIDI data. Normally, these parts are not used by the instrument
itself. When these five channels are enabled, you can use the instrument as a 32-channel multi-timbral tone generator.

whenever any data is received
on the channel(s).
The MIDI IN/OUT terminals
and Port A of the TO HOST
terminal (Port A of the CBX
driver) correspond to chan-
nels 1 - 16. Port B of the TO

When several channels are
simultaneously set to “ON,”
the root note is detected
from merged MIDI data
received over the channels.
