PF-500 79
MIDI [MIDI SETTING]
“Local Control On” is a state in which the PF-500
produces the sound from its tone generator when
you play the keyboard. In “Local Control Off”
state, the keyboard and the tone generator are cut
off from each other. This means that even if you
play the keyboard, the PF-500 will not produce the
sound. Instead, the keyboard data can be transmit-
ted via MIDI to a connected MIDI device, which
can produce the sound. The “Local Control Off”
setting is useful when you wish to play an external
sound source while playing the keys on the PF-500.
See the procedure on page 63.
