8. MIDI SETTINGS
Some of the settings for MIDI can be altered when needed, as explained below.
Making the Settings
While holding down the MIDI button, press the appropriate NUMBER button (which
corresponds to the desired function printed below the button). Keep your finger on the MIDI
button while you then press either UP or DOWN until you have obtained the value you
desire. The current value for the setting is shown in the display.
1. Local ON/OFF (LOCAL)
This setting allows you to choose whether or not you wish to have the controller section
(keyboard, switches, pedals, etc.) be disengaged from the sound generator.
When set to OFF, the sound generator will no longer be connected with the rest of the
instrument, so no sound will be heard when the keyboard is played— but all its performance
information will continue being transmitted to external devices. Regardless of whether this
Local setting is ON or OFF, all data is recognized when received, and it will cause the internal
sound generator to sound.
