Using MIDI
However, if the sequencer's Soft Thru function is turned on
and you connect it to your digital piano set to Local On, the
piano will sound in response to its own keyboard and also in
response to the message re-transmitted through the sequ-
encer. This may result in each note being played twice, or in
some notes being skipped.

This is why you should set our sequencer to Soft Thru On,
and your piano to Local Off. With these settings, there is
only one route for note messages from the keyboard to
reach the sound source. With this setting your music will be
produced properly.
