If you choose the manual echo mode, you can control the routing and
processing of MIDI echo data, as shown in the following table:
Local Control
As described on page A-5, you should normally disable the Local Control
setting on your master keyboard to prevent notes from being doubled.
Notes you play on the keyboard are then transmitted to Pro Audio,
echoed to the synthesizer, and played only once.
When Pro Audio starts, it sends a special MIDI message that attempts to
disable Local Control automatically. Most modern synthesizers respond
to this message. If yours does not, you will need to disable Local Control
every time you turn it on for use with Pro Audio.
If your synthesizer does not let you disable Local Control (this is rare),
you can use the Local On Port setting in the Project Options dialog box
to indicate the number of the output port connected to your synthesizer.
Pro Audio will then refrain from sending MIDI echo data to that port. In
this conÞguration, you may need to turn your synthesizerÕs volume
control up and down from time to time to avoid hearing it play along
with your other modules. If this situation doesnÕt apply to you, the Local
On Port should be set to 0. Note that the Virtual Piano will not record if
the Local On Port is set to any value other than 0.
Setting... What it means...
Port The desired destination port. Blank means
the port is not mapped.
Channel The desired destination channel. Blank
means that the channel is not mapped.
Key The desired note transposition, if any.
Velocity The desired velocity transposition, if any.
