the same way.
When you operate the parameters you assigned on the
M7CL, control change messages will be transmitted to
external devices. Similarly, if the corresponding con-
trol change messages are sent from an external device
on the appropriate channel, the parameters assigned to
those control numbers will change.
The channel on which control changes are transmitted and
received is specified by the MIDI SETUP page PORT/CH field
(
p. 198).
