Use the EL-200 as an XG Tone Generator You can also use the EL-200 as an XG tone generator since the EL-200 is compatible with the XG format. You can play back the commercially available XG song data with the Electone's M.D.R., and also play them using an external sequencer (or sequencing software) and the internal XG tone generator. The internal tone generator section of the EL-200 is normally set to EL Mode for playing as an "Electone." Sending an appropriate system exclusive message from the sequencing software (PC) to the EL-200 changes the mode to XG Mode, in which you can use the Electone as an XG tone generator. NOTE: The EL-200 allows you to play back the commercially available XG song data using the M.D.R. For more information on XG song playback, see page 39. 1 Send the XG System On message, "F0, 43, 1N*, 4C, 00, 00, 7E, 00, F7" from the PC to EL-200. *N: Device Number ("0" on EL-200) Once the XG System On message is received, the internal tone generator will be in the XG Mode allowing the EL-200 to receive all the MIDI messages defined by the XG format such as NRPN and Bank Select. NOTE: When you create an XG song data using a sequencing software, be sure to insert the XG System On message at the beginning of the data. The internal tone generator mode automatically changes to XG when you start to play back the data. NOTE: The internal tone generator mode automatically changes to XG when you play back commercially available XG song data. 9 Appendix 57
