The settings in Global mode will depend on the type of connections and on how you are using the
TRINITY.
< Echo Back and Local Control settings >
If you are recording on an external sequencer while listening to the sequencer playback (i.e., if
you are using the TRINITY both as the keyboard for input and as the tone generator for play-
back), connect the MIDI IN connector of the TRINITY to the MIDI OUT connector of the exter-
nal sequencer, and the MIDI IN connector of the external sequencer to the MIDI OUT
connector of the TRINITY.
In this situation, if the Echo Back setting of the sequencer or computer is ON (so that data
received at MIDI IN is re-transmitted from MIDI OUT), you should set the Local Control set-
ting of the TRINITY to OFF (to break the internal connection between the keyboard and the
tone generator).
When you play the keyboard, the musical data will be transmitted to the sequencer or com-
puter, and will then be echoed back to play the tone generator of the TRINITY. Turning the
Local Control setting OFF prevents the TRINITY’s tone generator from sounding each note
twice; once in response to its own keyboard, and a second time in response to the message ech-
oed back from the sequencer.
To turn the TRINITY’s Local Control setting OFF, the Global mode P1 Local Control On check
box should be pressed so that it is un-checked (☞Parameter Guide, page 131).
If you are using the TRINITY by itself, leave Local Control ON. If this is OFF, playing the key-
