219UTILITY MODE / SEQUENCER SETUP
Since you might want to use the SY85 sequencer to record material from an
external MIDI device rather than the instrument’s own keyboard, the Receive Channel
parameter on this page is provided so you can specify reception on any MIDI chan-
nel. The Aftertouch parameter is used to turn recording of aftertouch data on or off.

[UTILITY] → [SEQ SETUP] → [MENU] → 2:Rec Condition → [ENTER/YES]

Rch (Receive channel)

Range: 1 … 16, omni, kbd
Controls: [CS7], [-1] [+1], Dial
Selects input from the SY85 keyboard, or sets the MIDI receive channel
when data is to be recorded from an external MIDI device.
This function must be set to “kbd” if you will be recording from the SY85
keyboard. If you will be recording from an external MIDI controller such as a
master keyboard or wind controller, however, select the appropriate MIDI
channel or the “omni” mode for reception on all MIDI channels.

AT (Aftertouch)

Range: off, on
Controls: [CS8], [-1] [+1], Dial
Turns recording of after touch data on or off.
After touch data tends to be quite voluminous, and can use up the
sequencer memory capacity quickly, For this reason, the default setting for after
touch data recording is “off.” turn this parameter “on” only if you specifically
want to use an after touch effect.
