Internal External External/Solo 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 External Channel The External Mode allows independent control of there 16 external channels. The External Mode has three sub-modes: External, External/Solo, and External/Play. External This is the basic External Mode, which is used for most external channel parameters. External/Solo ........ This mode turns one channel on and all other channels off. It is used playing MIDI input (or SMF playback*) that simultaneously uses multiple channels of the keyboard's sound source. External/Play ........ This mode is a mirror of the External/Solo Mode. It turns one channel off and all other channels on. It comes in handy, for example, when you want to turn off a specific part of SMF playback* and play along on the keyboard. ❚ NOTES ❚ • The internal channels controlled by the internal mode are completely different from the external channels controlled by the external mode. This means that there are a total of 32 different channels. The Mixer mode saves internal mode and External Mode parameters separately from each other. • The External Mode is for MIDI (or SMF playback*). Operation of the External/Play Mode is particularly suited to MIDI play. See "MIDI" on page E-60 for information about how the Mixer is used during MIDI operations. * SMF Playback (WK-1800 only) The built-in disk drive of the WK-1800 allows playback of SMF (standard MIDI files) from diskette. See "Using the Floppy Disk Drive (WK-1800 Only)" on page E-67 for details. External/Play Turning Channels On and Off Press the CHANNEL buttons to toggle individual channels on and off. Indicators on the display show the current on/off status of each channel. Channel on Channel off The channel affected and the operation performed when a CHANNEL button is pressed depends on what Mixer mode you are in, as described below. Internal Mode • Each press of a CHANNEL button toggles the applicable channel on and off (except CH5). • The on/off status of each channel determines the on/off status of the corresponding part for keyboard play, Auto Accompaniment, and Song Sequencer playback. • Changing to a different rhythm causes Mixer Settings for CH6 through CH10 to change to the default settings assigned to the new rhythm. These settings also change to the defaults for the currently selected rhythm pattern whenever you switch between the Intro, Normal, Variation, Fill-in, and Ending patterns. External Mode On/off settings in this mode affect MIDI input and SMF playback channels (WK-1800 only). • In the External Mode, each press of CHANNEL button CH1 through CH16 toggles the applicable channel on and off. • In the External/Solo Mode, pressing a CHANNEL button turns on that channel and turns all the other channels off. • In the External/Play Mode, pressing a CHANNEL button turns off that channel and turns all the other channels on. 733A-E-031A WK-1800/1600(E)-28~31 Page 29 E-29 03.7.31, 5:21 PM Adobe PageMaker 6.5J/PPC
