MIDI Functions Local Control This function lets you enable or disable keyboard control over the PSR-275/273's voices in the Function mode (page 60). This would come in handy, for example, when recording notes to MIDI sequencer. If you are using the sequencer to play back the voices of the PSR-275/273, you would want to set this to "off" - in order to avoid getting "double" notes, both from the keyboard and from the sequencer. Normally, when playing the PSR-275/273 by itself, this should be set to "on." • No sound is output from the PSR-275/273 when Local ON/ OFF is set to OFF. Using Initial Setup Send with a Sequencer The most common use for the Initial Setup Send function is in recording a song on a sequencer that is intended for playback with the PSR-275/273. Essentially, this takes a "snapshot" of the PSR-275/273 settings and sends that data to the sequencer. By recording this "snapshot" at the start of the song (before any actual performance data), you can instantly restore the necessary settings on the PSR275/273 in the Function mode (page 60). Provided there is a pause in the song, you could also do this in the middle of a song - for example, completely changing the PSR-275/273 settings for the next section of the song. • When the Initial Setup Send operation is completed, the PSR275/273 automatically returns to the previous panel condition. External Clock This determines whether the style and song playback functions are controlled by the PortaTone's internal clock (off) or by MIDI clock data from an external sequencer or computer (on). This should be set to on when you want to have style or song playback follow the external device (such as a rhythm machine or a sequencer). The default setting is off. These settings can be made in the Function mode (page 60). • If External Clock is set to ON, style or song playback will not start unless external clock are received. MIDI LSB Receive Cancel Determines whether the LSB data of Bank Select is received or not. Press and hold the lowest key and turn on the power to change the setting (LSB is ignored). To restore MIDI LSB Receive Cancel to normal (LSB is recognized), turn on the power again normally. 57
