Chapter 3. Creating Your Own Sounds
■ MIDI Settings (MIDI)
These parameters determine MIDI channel settings and how
exclusive data is handled.
* The first display of the MIDI group will be different depending
on the mode you were in when you pressed [SYSTEM] (Patch
mode/Performance mode/GM mode).
PERFORM MIDI (Performance MIDI)
Make MIDI settings for Performance mode. To make these
settings, press [SYSTEM] when you are in Performance mode,
and then press [MIDI] located in the row of function buttons.
Control Channel (Performance Control Channel)
Select the receive channel used for selecting Performances via
MIDI (Program Change and Bank Select messages). If you do
not wish to use MIDI messages to select Performances, turn
this OFF. If you set this to the same channel as the receive
channel of a Part, Performance selection will take priority and
it will not be possible to select Patches on that Part via MIDI.
* The MIDI Receive Channel of each Part is set independently for
each Performance.
Local (Local Switch)
Specify whether or not the controller section will be
connected to the internal sound source (all Parts). Normally
you will leave this ON, but if you wish to use the XP-30’s
keyboard and controllers to control only external sound
sources, turn this OFF.
* If you want the keyboard controller section to be disconnected
only from a specific Part or Parts, use the Local parameter
(PERFORM/MIDI/MIDI).
Remote (Remote Keyboard Switch)
Turn this parameter on when you want to use an external
MIDI keyboard in place of the XP-30’s keyboard. In this case,
the transmit channel of the external MIDI keyboard can be set
to any channel. Normally you will leave this parameter off.
* Set this parameter ON if you want performance using the
Arpeggiator to be controlled by an external MIDI device.
* When the Remote keyboard switch is on, all messages that arrive
at MIDI IN are output from MIDI OUT.
PATCH MIDI
Make MIDI settings for Patch mode. To make these settings,
press [SYSTEM] when you are in Patch mode, and then press

Rx-Ch (Patch Mode Receive Channel)
Select the channel on which MIDI messages will be received
in Patch mode.
Tx-Ch (Patch Mode Transmit Channel)
This parameter selects the transmit channel for MIDI
messages in Patch mode. If you do not want to transmit
MIDI messages to external MIDI devices, turn this parameter
off. If you want the transmit channel to always match the
Patch Mode Receive Channel, set this parameter to Rx-Ch.
Local (Local Switch)

connected to the internal sound source (all Parts). Normally
you will leave this ON, but if you wish to use the XP-30’s
keyboard and controllers to control only external sound
sources, turn this OFF.
Remote (Remote Keyboard Switch)
Turn this parameter on when you want to use an external
MIDI keyboard in place of the XP-30’s keyboard. In this case,

off.
