Xboard 39
X1 and X2 Functions
The X1 key accesses the X1 functions. These are global functions that affect all
patches. For example, if Pedal is set to Sus, it will remain so for all patches.
Mid - Out or Thru - When Out is selected, the MIDI output transmits local
data from the keyboard and knobs. When Thru is selected, the MIDI output
transmits data from the host application.
PEd - Selects between a footswitch (SuS) or a continuous footpedal (ctL)
ind - Turns the decimal point USB/MIDI indicators on or off. See page 17.
Zod - Turns the zones status message on or off.
PbM - Determines the behavior of the Numeric Keypad after you send a
program change.
CAL - The Calibration sub-menu. The functions here allow you to make very
specific calibrations. These settings are for advanced users.
The X2 key accesses the X2 functions. These are global functions which affect only
the active patch. For example, if you turn Zones off it will remain so for only the
active patch.
ZoE - Enables and disables Zones functions in the active patch.

X1 Menu Items
The following is a description of the items located in the X1 menu.
MIDI (Mid)
The Xboard can function as a MIDI interface between your computer applications
and external MIDI gear. When set to Thru, MIDI data from your computer appli-
cation is transmitted on the Xboard’s MIDI output jack. When Out is selected, the
MIDI output transmits local data from the keyboard and knobs.
Xboard keyboard and controller data is NOT transmitted from the MIDI output
when this function is set to Thru. (Keyboard/Controller data is always sent via USB.)
