Reference
Connecting Pa600 to a Master keyboard
You can control Pa600 with a master keyboard or any other
MIDI keyboard. You only need to connect the MIDI OUT con-
nector of the master keyboard to the MIDI IN connector of
Pa600. The master keyboard will become the integrated key-
board of the Pa600 if it transmits over the same channel pro-
grammed as Global in Pa600.
If the master keyboard transmits over the Global channel of
Pa600, the split point and the status of the SPLIT button in the
control panel will affect the notes received from the master key-
board.
Connections and settings
To connect the master keyboard to Pa600 follow this procedure:
1. Connect the MIDI OUT connector of the master keyboard
to the MIDI IN connector of the Pa600.
2. Program the master keyboard to transmit over the Global
channel of Pa600 (see “MIDI: MIDI In Channels” on
page 151).
For information on programming the master keyboard,
please see the master keyboard’s own user manual.
3. Select the “Master Keyboard” MIDI Preset. You can do this
by going to the “MIDI: General Controls” page of the
Global mode. Note that this MIDI Preset will be remain
unchanged even when turning the instrument off.
Note: Settings may change when new Global data is loaded
from disk. To protect settings from loading, use the Global
Protect function (see “Global Protect” on page 145).
4. If needed, press one of the buttons in the MODE section to
go to the desired operative mode.
Connecting Pa600 to a MIDI accordion

To connect the accordion to the Pa600 follow this procedure:
1. Connect the MIDI OUT connector of the accordion to the
MIDI IN connector of Pa600.

eter. You can do this by going to the “MIDI: General Con-
trols” page of the Global mode. Note that this MIDI Preset
will be remain unchanged even when turning the instru-
ment off.

from disk. To protect settings from loading, use the Global
Protect function (see “Global Protect” on page 145).
