(→ p.103) • The data is transmitted to the tone generator block as specified by the Out Channel "TO TG" setting, and to the MIDI OUT connectors on the channels specified by the "MIDI OUT-A" / "MIDI OUT-B" settings. • Since the tone generator block has only 32 parts, it is not able to simultaneously produce the sounds for the sequence tracks of the sequencer block (32 tracks) as well as all of the pattern tracks (16 tracks). However if you use an external tone generator, you can make Out Channel settings so that any 16 of the tracks are played back by the external MIDI tone generator so that all tracks will playback simultaneously.
