MIDI local settings when connecting to an external MIDI sequencer or computer
If the Grandstage X is connected to an external MIDI sequencer or computer, and the Echo Back set-
ting of the external MIDI sequencer or computer is turned on while the Grandstage X’s local control
setting is also on, the performance data generated when you play the Grandstage X’s keyboard is
sent to the external MIDI sequencer, and is also echoed back to trigger the Grandstage X’s tone gen-
erator a second time. To prevent this kind of echo-back from happening, you can turn off local control
on the Grandstage X in system settings (SYSTEM - “Local Control”).

Applying transpose and velocity curve settings to MIDI
Use the Convert Position system setting parameter on the Grandstage X (SYSTEM - Convert Pos.) to
specify the position at which the transposition and velocity curve is applied. This setting is applied to
MIDI data that’s transmitted and received, but has no effect when you play the Grandstage X’s own
sounds using this keyboard.
The default setting is “Pre-MIDI”.
Pre-MIDI: Transposes and applies the velocity curve to data immediately after it is outputted from
the keyboard.
• The data to which velocity curve and transpose settings are applied is transmitted from the
MIDI OUT when you play the keyboard. This is applied to the MIDI OUT data.
• Data received via MIDI IN is sent to the sound generator as-is.
Post-MIDI: Transposes and applies the velocity curve to data before it enters the sound generator.
• Data from this keyboard is transmitted as-is to MIDI OUT. This is not applied to the MIDI OUT
data.
• Velocity curve and transpose settings are applied to the data that’s received via MIDI IN, and
sent to the sound generator.
