MIDI Functions System Settings The explanations here apply to step #5 of the Basic Procedure on page 150. s Local Control "Local Control" refers to the fact that, normally, the PSR-9000 keyboard controls the internal tone generator, allowing the internal voices to be played directly from the keyboard. This condition is referred to as "Local Control on" since the internal tone generator is controlled locally by its own keyboard. Local control can be turned off, however, so that the keyboard does not play the internal voices, but the appropriate MIDI information is still transmitted via the MIDI OUT connector when notes are played on the keyboard. At the same time, the internal tone generator can respond to MIDI information received on channels set to the "XG/GM" mode via the MIDI IN connector. This means that while an external MIDI sequencer, for example, plays the PSR-9000 internal voices, an external tone generator can be played from the PSR-9000 keyboard. s Clock, Receive Transpose and Thru Port q Clock Determines whether the PSR-9000 is controlled by its own internal clock or a MIDI clock signal received from an external device. INTERNAL is the normal Clock setting when the PSR-9000 is being used alone. If you are using the PSR-9000 with an external sequencer, MIDI computer, or other MIDI device, and you want the PSR-9000 to be synchronized to the external device, set this function to EXTERNAL. In the latter case, the external device must be connected to the PSR-9000 MIDI IN connector, and must be transmitting an appropriate MIDI clock signal. q Transmit Clock Turns MIDI clock transmission on or off. When set to OFF, no MIDI clock or START/STOP data is transmitted. q Receive Transpose When the RECEIVE TRANSPOSE parameter is set to OFF, note data received by the PSR-9000 is not transposed, and when set to ON, the received note data is transposed according to the current PSR-9000 song transpose setting. q Thru See page 149. s Message Switch The SYS/EX. TRANSMIT parameter turns MIDI transmission of MIDI system exclusive message data on or off. The SYS/EX. RECEIVE parameter turns MIDI reception of MIDI exclusive data generated by external equipment on or off. The CHORD SYS/EX. TRANSMIT parameter turns MIDI transmission of MIDI chord exclusive data (chord detect - root and type) on or off. The CHORD SYS/EX. RECEIVE parameter turns MIDI reception of MIDI chord exclusive data generated by external equipment on or off. Transmit Settings This display page allows you to specify which PSR-9000 voices and parts will be transmitted via which MIDI channels (there are 32 MIDI channels), and to specify which types of data will be transmitted for each channel. The explanations here apply to step #5 of the Basic Procedure on page 150. Select a Channel. Select a Part for the selected channel. The Tx MONITOR (transmit monitor) indicates when data is being transmitted on any of the 32 MIDI channels: The dots corresponding to each channel (132) flash briefly whenever any data is transmitted on the channel(s). Turn transmission of the specified data type on or off. See the next page for details on the data types. • Channels 1 - 16 are handled with the MIDI A terminals or the TO HOST terminal; channels 1 - 16 of a second MIDI port or device are handled as channels 17 - 32 with the MIDI B terminals. q q q q q q q q q q q q q q q q q q q q q q q q q q q q q q q q q q q q q q q q q q q Reference 151 149
