Controlling PSR-GX76 Playback from an External Device — External Clock
This function allows you to “slave” the PSR-GX76 to a “master” MIDI device, so
that playback of the PSR-GX76 is controlled from that device.
Normally, the PSR-GX76 is set up to control another MIDI device, such as in
playing the sounds of an external tone generator.
You can also control the PSR-
GX76 from an external device, such as playing back song data on a sequencer
using the voices of the PSR-GX76, or playing the PSR-GX76 voices from a sepa-
rate MIDI keyboard or controller.
When you want to control playback of the PSR-GX76’s styles or songs from an
external MIDI device, you’ll have to change the clock setting on the PSR-GX76
to external.
1
Press the [TEMPO/TAP] button, then enter “000” (External
Clock) for the Tempo value.
“ECL TEMPO” is shown in the display, indicating that the PSR-GX76 is
waiting for an external clock signal.
Any value other than “000” automatically sets the PSR-GX76 to Internal
Clock.
2
Make sure the PSR-GX76 is set to the appropriate mode
(Song or Style), and start playback on the connected
device.
