ENGLISH F7. MIDI Functions You can make detailed adjustments to MIDI settings. For more information about MIDI, see the "About MIDI" section (page 45). TIP The HOST SELECT switch on the bottom surface must be set to "MIDI" to enable the MIDI connectors. When you use the TO HOST connector, set the HOST SELECT switch to the appropriate position for the type of computer you are using (pages 45-51). In this situation, all MIDI settings described below will affect the MIDI signal in and out of the TO HOST connector. 1. Engage Function mode and select . 2. Press the [+/YES] button to engage the MIDI function's sub-mode, then use the [TEMPO/ FUNCTION# ▼, ▲] buttons to select the desired sub-mode. Press the [-/NO] or [+/YES] button to set a selected parameter. Sub-mode MIDI Transmit Channel Selection In any MIDI control setup, the MIDI channels of the transmitting and receiving equipment must be matched for proper data transfer. This parameter enables you to specify the channel on which the YDP-223 transmits MIDI data. Setting range: 1 - 16, OFF (not transmitted) Normal setting: 1 NOTE In Dual mode, Voice 1 data is transmitted on its specified channel. Voice 2 data is transmitted on the next greater channel number relative to the specified channel. No data is transmitted if the transmit channel is set to "OFF". NOTE Demo/preset song data and recorder playback data are not transmitted via MIDI. MIDI Receive Channel Selection In any MIDI control setup, the MIDI channels of the transmitting and receiving equipment must be matched for proper data transfer. This parameter enables you to specify the channel on which the YDP-223 receives MIDI data. Setting range: ALL, 1&2, 1 - 16 Normal setting: ALL TIP ALL: A "Multi-timbre" Receive mode is available. It allows simultaneous reception of different parts on all 16 MIDI channels, enabling the YDP-223 to play multi-channel song data received from a music computer or sequencer. 1&2: A "1&2" Receive mode is available. It allows simultaneous reception on channels 1 and 2 only, enabling the YDP-223 to play 1 and 2 channel song data received from a music computer or sequencer. TIP Program change and other like channel messages received will not affect the YDP-223's panel settings or the notes you play on the keyboard. NOTE No MIDI reception occurs when Demo/Preset Song mode is engaged. Local Control ON/OFF "Local Control" refers to the fact that, normally, the YDP-223 keyboard controls its internal tone generator, allowing the internal voices to be played directly from the keyboard. This situation is "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 YDP-223 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 responds to MIDI information received via the MIDI IN connector. Setting range: ON/OFF Normal setting: ON YDP-223 Detailed Settings - [FUNCTION] 41
