Initial Data Send ...........................................................................................................................................
Transmits all current panel settings to a MIDI data storage device before
actually recording your performance. With the “InitSnd?” function selected,
press the [+/YES] button to start transmission. When the data has been
transmitted, “End” will appear momentarily on the display and return to the
“InitSnd?”.
External Clock..................................................................................................................................................
Reception of an external MIDI clock signal can be enabled or disabled as
required. When disabled (OFF), all of the time-based functions (Auto Ac-
companiment, SONG recording and playback, etc.) are controlled by its
own internal clock. When MIDI clock reception is enabled (ON), however,
all timing is controlled by an external MIDI clock signal received via the
MIDI IN terminal. The default setting is OFF.
If the External Clock function is
turned ON but the external clock
signal is interrupted for more than
400 milliseconds, the internal
clock is re-selected automatically.
External Clock setting is retained
in memory even when the power
switch is turned OFF, as long as
batteries are installed or an AC
adaptor is connected.
When the External Clock is
turned ON, the song recording/
playback will be controlled by the
external device.
The song data will not be played
back correctly, if the panel set-
tings for the song has not been
recorded in advance. To record
the panel settings to an external
device, engage the external
device in the record mode and
execute the Initial Data Send
operation.
The InitSnd? function can be
quickly selected by pressing and
holding the [SYNC-START/
STOP] button.
