Preventing Doubled Notes When Connected to a Sequencer
(Local Control)
When you have a MIDI sequencer connected, set this parameter to Local O.
Since most sequencers have their Thru function turned on, notes you play on the
keyboard may be sounded in duplicate, or get dropped. To prevent this, you can
enable the “Local O” setting so that the keyboard and internal sound generator will be
disconnected.
OFF
Local Control is o.
The keyboard and composer are disconnected from the internal sound generator. Playing the keyboard will not produce sound.
ON
Local Control is on.
The keyboard and composer are connected to the internal sound generator.

devices and specifying the appropriate MIDI channel for each device, you can play or select
sounds on those devices.
The unit will receive all sixteen channels (1–16).
