External Clock ON/OFF (External Clock)

This determines whether the instrument is synchronized to its own internal clock (OFF) or by an external clock signal (ON).

ON (external clock)..... Song and style playback synchronize to clock signals received from the external device connected to the USB terminal.

OFF (internal clock).... Song and style playback synchronize to the internal clock (normal operation).

External Clock ON/OFF can be set from the External Clock page of the FUNCTION display. (See page 79.)

If external clock is set to ON, songs and styles will not start unless external clock signals are received.

Initial Setup Send (Initial Send)

This function transmits the panel settings of this instrument to a computer.

This is particularly useful when recording to a sequencer, since it lets you record an initial setup message at the start of a song. In this way, when you play back the song, the instrument receives the message and automatically reconfigures the panel settings to those made when recording.

Initial Setup Send can be set from the Initial Send page of the FUNCTION display. (See page 79.)

Keyboard ON/OFF (KeyboardOut)

This determines whether performance data of the instrument’s keyboard is sent via the USB connection (ON) or not.

Keyboard Out ON/OFF can be set from the KeyboardOut page of the FUNCTION display. (See page 79.)

Style Out ON/OFF (StyleOut)

This determines whether accompaniment style data of the instrument is sent via the USB connection (ON) or not, during style playback.

Style Out ON/OFF can be set from the StyleOut page of the FUNCTION display. (See page 79.)

Song Out ON/OFF (SongOut)

This determines whether song data of the instrument is sent via the USB connection (ON) or not, during song playback.

Song Out ON/OFF can be set from the SongOut page of the FUNCTION display. (See page 79.)

LSB Receive Cancel

This “hidden” function sets the instrument to ignore incoming bank select LSB messages.

To enable this function, simultaneously hold down the lowest C key on the keyboard and turn on the power with the [STANDBY/ON] switch.

This setting is temporary. The instrument returns to the original condition when the power is turned on again.

NOTE

When SongOut (below) is set to ON, style data is always sent dur- ing song playback, even if StyleOut is set to OFF.
