match the range of your pedal.

PLAYING AN EXTERNAL SOUND

SOURCE

Since both manuals send MIDI data on separate MIDI chan-

nels, it is possible to connect an external sound source and

control it from one manual while playing internally on the

other.

Follow the steps below as necessary:

Connect MIDI OUT to MIDI in on the external

device

2 Match MIDI channels

Match the MIDI channel setting of the manual you

want to use with your external device. Please refer to

“The MIDI Menu” on page 15 for detailed instructions.

• MIDI channel setting 1 - 16 uses the fast trigger key-

board response which result in MIDI note messages

being sent with fixed velocity data.

• MIDI channel setting E1 - E9 uses normal trigger

response which result in velocity variable data being

sent via

MIDI OUT. Fast trigger response is still used

internally.

Set MIDI CC Mode to “Off”

Normally all buttons and knobs send MIDI continuous

controller data, which can lead to undesirable results

when an external sound generator is connected.

This can be turned of by setting the MIDI CC Mode to

“Off ” or “Receive”. This is done in the MIDI menu. Please

see “Continuous Controller mode” on page 16 for

detailed instructions.

Set Sustain Pedal Mode

If you want the sustain pedal to operate the external

device only, set the sustain pedal setting in the System

menu to “

OF”. Please refer to “Sustain Pedal” on page 15

for detailed instructions.
