USING A MIDI SOUND MODULE
You can control an external MIDI sound module with the built-in keyboard and the
expanded MIDI keyboard.
1. Connect as illustrated.
Connect the MIDI OUT of this keyboard to the MIDI IN of the MIDI sound module.
2. Call the MIDI template “Use Ex. xxx”. (P. 108)
By this, the External Zone performance is sent from the MIDI OUT instead of Key-
board channels.
Use diff erent MIDI templates, depending whether the keyboard is expanded or not.
3. Set each zone, and, if necessary, record to the patches.
See the next paragraph “ZONES” for the setting details.

WHY USING EXTERNAL ZONES
This keyboard’s default MIDI channels are Up-
per 1 / Lower 2 / Pedal 3, but using these as-
signments to control external sources can get
tricky.
The External Zone is a solution. Each has a pro-
visions for a program number, octave, velocity
sensitivity and so on by each Patch separate
from the organ assignments.
