Preventing Doubled Notes When Connected
to a Sequencer (Local Control)
If you connect the FP-7F to a MIDI sequencer, turn o the Local Control
setting as described below.
Since most sequencers have their “thru” function turned on, the data
from your keyboard performance and the notes played back by the
sequencer will arrive at the sound generator by the two routes marked
(1) and (2) in the illustration. This will cause notes to be doubled or
interrupted. To prevent this, turn Local Control o so that route (1) will
be disconnected.

(2) Soft Thru On

Changing the MIDI Transmit Channel
(MIDI Transmit Ch.)
Here’s how to specify the MIDI channel that the FP-7F will use for
transmission.
MIDI uses sixteen “MIDI channels,” numbered 1–16. If MIDI devices are
connected and set to the same MIDI channel, you can use one device
to play or switch sounds on the other device.
The FP-7F receives all channels, 1–16.
