Remote Channel
..........................................................................................................................................
Sets the MIDI channel on which data from a remote keyboard will be
received. Any of the standard MIDI channels — 1 through 16 — can be
specified. The remote keyboard must be set up to transmit on the specified
remote channel, and the keyboard’s
MIDI OUT
connector must be con-
nected to the PSR-A3
MIDI IN
connector via a standard MIDI cable. Refer
to the “MIDI Implementation Chart” section (page 94) for technical details.
When set to OFF data is received on all 16 MIDI channels. The default set-
ting —
OFF — can be recalled by pressing the
[–/NO]
and
[+/YES]
but-
tons simultaneously.
•
Remote Channel is automatically
turned OFF when a MIDI “GM
ON” message is received.
•
The Remote channel setting is
retained in memory even when
the power switch is turned OFF,
as long as batteries are installed
or an AC adaptor is connected.
The PSR-A3 is capable of receiving the same MIDI data, so a second
MIDI keyboard connected to the PSR-A3
MIDI IN
connector can be
used to remotely play the PSR-A3 and select voices as required.

MIDI Sequence Recording
Although the PSR-A3 features a built-in “sequencer” (the SONG re-
corder is a type of sequencer), the same type of musical information
transfer described above can be used for more sophisticated MIDI se-
quence recording using an external sequencer or music computer. A
MIDI sequence recorder or music computer can be used to “record”
MIDI data received from a PSR-A3, for example. When the recorded
data is played back, the PSR-A3 automatically “plays” the recorded per-
formance in precise detail.
•
Never use MIDI cables longer
than about 15 meters. Cables
longer than this can pick up noise
which can cause data errors.
