you
playback.
It
cannot
display
them
but
it
allows
you
to
transmit
them
to
a
device
capable
of
displaying
Lyrics
messages
(such
as
the
Roland
LVC-1).
This

Synchronization
parameters
Sync
Rx
(MIDI
Synchronization)
Use
this
parameter
to
specify
how
the
EM-50/30
should
be
synchronized
(as
slave)
to
an
external
MIDI
sequencer,
computer,
drum
machine,
etc.
Synchro-
nization
is
a
learned
term
for
the
fact
that
one
device
(or
function)
is
set
to
start
and
stop
at
the
same
time
as
another
device
(or
function),
and
to
run
at
the
52
same
tempo
(BPM).
Please
note
that
synchronization
is
only
possible
when
you
connect
the
external
device's
MIDI
OUT
port
to
the
EM-50/30's
MIDI
IN
port
(though
you
can
also
work
the
other
way
around;
in
that
case,
see
the
sequencer's
manual
for
details).
Int—In
this
case,
the
EM-50/30
is
not
synchronized
with
other
MIDI
devices.
It
is
thus
impossible
to
start/stop
it
via
MIDI.
MId
A—This
synchronization
mode
does
two
things
at
a
time:
it
synchronizes
both
Arranger
playback
and
Song
recording
in
response
to
Start/Stop
and
MIDI
Clock
messages.
In
fact,
after
pressing
the
[REC/2nd
TRACK]
button,
you
have
to
start
the
external
device
to
cause
the
Recorder
to
start.
At
the
same
time,
Arranger
playback
will
be
started,
making
this
mode
ideal
for
recordings
involving
both
the
Arranger
and
the
EM-50/30's
Recorder.
MId
S—In
this
case,
only
the
Recorder
will
be
syn-
chronized.
This
synchronization
mode
bears
both
on
Recorder
playback
and
recording,
meaning
that
the
Recorder
can
only
be
started
with
MIDI
Clock
mes-
sages
received
from
an external
unit.
Also,
the
Song
mode
must
be
on
(MEU)
Furthermore,
recording
can
only
be
started
if
you
press
the
[REC/2nd
TRACK]
button
to
put
the
EM-50/30
in
standby.
Note:
The
Recorder
will
only
start
when
MIDI
Clock
mes-
sages
are
received
in
Song
mode.
Aut
A—
Here,
Arranger
playback
and
Song
recording
are
only
synchronized
if
the
EM-50/30
receives
MIDI
Start
and
Stop
messages
followed
by
MIDI
Clock
sig-
nals.
If
all
the
EM-50/30
receives
is
a
Start
message,
it
will
wait
a
moment
to
see
if
there
are
also
MIDI
Clock
messages
coming.
If
there
are,
it
will
synchronize
to
them.
If
there
are
no
MIDI
Clock
messages,
it
will
fol-
low
its
own
tempo.
In
either
case,
you
can
stop
play-
back
or
recording
with
a
MIDI
Stop
message.
The
EM-50/30
thus
“knows”
when
to
synchronize
to
exter-
nal
MIDI
Clock
messages
and
when
to
follow
its
own
tempo.
Aut
S—See
above.
This
time,
however,
the
automatic
synchronization
applies
to
Song
recording
and
play-
back.
The
Arranger
will
therefore
neither
start,
nor
synchronize
to
incoming
MIDI
Clock
messages.
rEM
A—The
Arranger
and
Recorder
wait
for
a
start
message
to
start
playback
or
recording
at
its
own
tem-
po.
As
soon
as
the
EM-50/30
receives
a
stop
message,
Arranger
playback
and/or
Song
recording
will
stop.
rEM
S—This
is
the
same
as
rEM
A,
except
that
it
applies
to
Song
playback
and
recording
(and
thus
to
the
Song
mode).
The
Arranger
is
not
affected
by
Start/
Stop
messages
received
via
MIDI.
