Chapter 9 Other Settings/Status Checks
fig.09-MIDI IN-5.e
In Performance Mode
The instrument operates as a Performance (32-part) sound
module and a 16-part GM2 sound module (for a total of 48
parts). In this case, the MIDI IN 2 Receive switch settings for
the Performance’s parts are disabled (always OFF).
You cannot use the panel to select GM2 sound module tones
from MIDI IN 2, nor can you edit these tones. They can only
be controlled with an external MIDI device.
fig.09-MIDI IN-6.e
GM Mode
The instrument functions as two independent 16-part GM2
sound modules, one for each of the MIDI IN connectors.
fig.09-MIDI IN-7.e
You can initialize the MIDI IN2 GM sound generator and set
the status to "GM OFF" in the Initialize screen ([UTILITY] -
[Init] - [MIDI In2]).
Connecting Two or More XV-
5080s to Increase Polyphony
The Stack function allows you to combine two or more XV-
5080 units to increase the number of voices that can be
played simultaneously. You can connect and use up to eight
XV-5080s.

Stack
Mode (Stack Mode)
Range: OFF/2–8
When using more than one XV-5080, set this parameter to 2–
8. When not using the Stack feature, set the parameter to
OFF.
If Stack mode is turned off, the Stack function will not
operate, and each XV-5080 will attempt to sound all of the
note messages that it receives.
Number (Stack Number)
Range: 1–8
When the Stack feature is enabled, this parameter selects the
XV-5080 that is to function as the primary/first unit—this is
the XV-5080 that will sound the first 128 voices.
The Stack function will not operate when using Patches in
which Key Assign of Key Mode is set to “MONO” or whose
Portamento Switch is “ON” (Patch Common Control #1
page), or for Rhythm Sets. Patches for which the KEY MODE
Key Assign is “MONO” or whose Portamento Switch is
“ON” will be sounded by the first XV-5080, and Rhythm Sets
will be sounded by the second XV-5080.
* The Multi-Partial Patches are sounded by the first XV-5080.
