and then returned from the computer to play the tone generator block on the CP300. If the Local Control
parameter in the MIDI Settings menu is set to “on,” a “double” sound may result, since the CP300 tone
generator is receiving performance data from both the keyboard directly and the computer.
Use the setting suggestions below as a guideline; specific instructions may differ depending on your computer
and the software used.
