8-1-5 MIDI TX Mode
The MIDI Transmit Mode parameter designates whether the SP7 Grand will transmit on multiple MIDI channels or 
just channel 1.
When set to “Multi” each zone of the current multi sound will transmit on the MIDI channel which corresponds to 
its zone number (Zone 1 receives on channel 1, Zone 2 receives on channel 2, and so on).
When set to “Single” only zone 1/channel 1 transmits.
8-2-1 Blink Tempo
Blink Tempo is a visual aid. When enabled, the large LED ring surrounding the alpha wheel flashes along with the 
current system tempo. 
8-1-6 MIDI RX Mode
The MIDI Receive Mode parameter designates whether the SP7 Grand will receive on multiple MIDI channels or 
just channel 1.
When set to “Multi”, each zone of the current multi sound will receive on the MIDI channel which corresponds to 
its zone number (Zone 1 receives on channel 1, Zone 2 receives on channel 2, and so on).
When set to “Single”, only zone 1/channel 1 receives and further, that data is re-channelized to trigger all active 
zones as if being played locally on the SP7 Grand keyboard itself.
8-1-7 Override 
Each Sound in the SP7 Grand can have its own unique MIDI Controller assignments and Destination routings. The 
Override feature allows you to suspend those assignments in lieu of using the settings
found in the Global mode.
When the Controller override switch is on (green), the Controller assignments (as defined under the Global Control 
menu) will take precedence over the settings within each Sound.
When the Destination override switch is on (green), a routing selector tab appears allowing you to select the MIDI 
routing. It takes precedence over the settings within each Sound. Three configurations are available:
ㆍLOCAL+MIDI (MIDI data is sent internally to the SP7 Grand and external devices)
ㆍLOCAL ONLY (MIDI data is only sent internally to the SP7 Grand)
ㆍMIDI ONLY (MIDI data is only sent to external devices).
8-2 Global 2
Global 2 parameters allow you to adjust the Blink 
Tempo, LCD Bright, LED Bright, String Resonance, and 
[FX A] to Damper Resonance.
8-2-2 LCD Bright
LCD Brightness adjusts the brightness of the touch screen.
8-2-3 LED Bright
LED Brightness adjusts the brightness of the front panel knobs and buttons.
