Reference MIDI MIDI System Settings The explanations here apply when you call up the SYSTEM page in step #5 of the Basic Procedure on page 145. I Local Control ...Turns the Local Control for each part on or off. When Local Control is set to "ON," the keyboard of the TYROS 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 TYROS' 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 TYROS' internal voices, and use the TYROS keyboard to record notes to the external sequencer and/or play an external tone generator. I Clock setting, etc...G CLOCK Determines whether the TYROS is controlled by its own internal clock or a MIDI clock signal received from an external device. INTERNAL is the normal Clock setting when the TYROS is being used alone. If you are using the TYROS with an external sequencer, MIDI computer, or other MIDI device, and you want to synchronize it to that device, set this parameter to the appropriate setting: MIDI A, MIDI B, USB 1, or USB 2. Make sure that the external device is connected properly (e.g., to the TYROS' MIDI IN terminal), and that it is properly transmitting a MIDI clock signal. G TRANSMIT CLOCK Turns MIDI clock transmission on or off. When set to OFF, no MIDI clock or START/STOP data is transmitted even if song or style is played back. G RECEIVE TRANSPOSE Determines whether the TYROS' transpose setting (page 82) is applied to the note events the TYROS received via MIDI or not. G START/STOP Determines whether incoming FA (start) and FC (stop) messages affect song or style playback. I Message Switch ...G SYS/EX. The "Tx" setting turns MIDI transmission of MIDI system exclusive messages on or off. The "Rx" setting turns MIDI reception and recognition of MIDI system exclusive messages generated by external equipment on or off. G CHORD SYS/EX. The "Tx" setting turns MIDI transmission of MIDI chord exclusive data (chord detect - root and type) on or off. The "Rx" setting turns MIDI reception and recognition of MIDI chord exclusive data generated by external equipment on or off. MIDI Transmit Settings The explanations here apply to when you call up the TRANSMIT page in step #5 of the Basic Procedure on page 145. This determines which parts will send MIDI data and over which MIDI channel the data will be sent. Select the part for changing transmit settings. With the exception of the two parts below, see page 134 for details about the parts. • UPPER A keyboard part played on the right side of the keyboard from the split point for the voices instead of RIGHT1, 2, and 3. • LOWER A keyboard part played on the left side of the keyboard from the split point for the voices instead of LEFT. This part is not affected by the on/off status of the [ACMP] button. • If the same transmit channel is assigned to several different parts, the transmitted MIDI messages are merged to a single channel - resulting in unexpected sounds and possible glitches in the the connected MIDI device. The dots corresponding to each channel (1-16) flash briefly whenever any data is transmitted on the channel(s). Turns transmission of the specified data type (MIDI message) on or off. See below and page 105 for details. Select a channel via which the selected part will be transmitted. 146 TYROS Owner's Manual 144
