Making Global and Other Important Settings - Function Setting the MIDI Parameters In this section, you can make MIDI-related settings for the instrument. These settings can be stored all together from the USER display, for future recall.For general information and details about MIDI, see "What is MIDI?" (page 139). The explanations here apply to step #3 of the procedure on page 118. 1 Select the desired template. Preset MIDI Templates (Factory Set) All Parts Transmit all parts including Main, Layer and Left. Master KBD The PSR-A1000 functions as a master keyboard for controlling external tone generators or other devices. A F KBD & Style Transmit Upper and Lower keyboard play instead of the individual parts (Main/ B G Layer/Left). C H Song All Transmit channels are set to correspond to the Song channels 1-16. D I Use this to play the PSR-A1000 song data with an external tone generator, or E J to record your entire performance to an external sequencer. Clock Ext. MIDI IN terminal receives MIDI clock and PSR-A1000 synchronizes with a external MIDI device. MIDI Accord 1 An ideal setup for controlling the keyboard voice and accompaniment style with a MIDI accordion. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 MIDI Accord 2 Chord and bass buttons on a MIDI accordion control the accompaniment style, as well as play the chord and bass parts. 3 Call up the User display and press this button to save the newly edited MIDI settings. Up to ten setups can be saved. 2 Call up the Edit display, then select and set the desired functions/parameters. For details about each of the MIDI edit displays, see the following pages. MIDI Pedal 1 MIDI Pedal 2 MIDI OFF The MIDI pedal connected to MIDI IN terminal controls the bass note of the accompaniment. The MIDI pedal connected to MIDI IN terminal plays the bass part. MIDI signals are neither sent nor received. END Press the [EXIT] button to return to the previous display. The saved settings can be named (page 38) or deleted (page 40) in the User page. Making Overall System Settings (Local Control, Clock, etc.) - System Call up the display as described in step 2 above. For editing the Clock, Transmit Clock, Receive Transpose, and Start/Stop parameters. For editing the Local Control parameters. For editing the Message Switch parameters. Local Control Turns the Local Control for each part on or off. When Local Control is set to "ON," the keyboard of the PSR-A1000 controls its own (local) internal tone generator, allowing the internal voices to be played directly from the keyboard. If you set Local to "OFF," the keyboard and controllers are internally disconnected from the PSR-A1000's tone generator section so that no sound is output when you play the keyboard or use the controllers. For example, this allows you to use an external MIDI sequencer to play the PSR-A1000's internal voices, and use the PSR-A1000 keyboard to record notes to the external sequencer and/or play an external tone generator.
