System settings
The PCR-300/500/800 has a MIDI MERGE switch. The MIDI Merge Destination setting specifies the port that will be merged when the MIDI MERGE switch is ON.
The MIDI Merge function is convenient when you’ve connected an external MIDI controller other than the PCR to the PCR’s MIDI IN connector. For example, you could connect another PCR,
and use one PCR to control your software synthesizer while using the other PCR to control your DAW software.

The MIDI MERGE switch and the MIDI Merge Destination
In this diagram, the MIDI MERGE switch is ON, and the MIDI Merge Destination is set to PORT 2, so the messages received at MIDI IN will be merged with the messages of PORT 2
and sent to the computer.
* If you turn the MIDI MERGE switch ON, no messages will be received if you’ve selected EDIROL PCR MIDI IN as the MIDI IN device on your computer.
