Reference
■ MIDI settings
These settings should be made when transmit-
ting/receiving performance data to a connected
MIDI device or computer.
Local Control determines whether or not notes
played on the instrument are sounded by its
internal tone generator system; the internal tone
generator is active when local control is on, and
inactive when local control is off.
• On
This is the normal setting in which notes played on
the instrument’s keyboard are sounded by the inter-
nal tone generator system. Data received via the
instrument’s MIDI terminal will also be played by
the internal tone generator.
• Off
With this setting the instrument itself produces no
sound (keyboard performance, Harmony, or Style
playback), but the performance data is transmitted
via the MIDI terminal. Data received via the instru-
ment’s MIDI terminal will also be played by the
internal tone generator.
You can set the Local Control in the Function
Settings (page 56).
These settings determine whether the instrument
is synchronized to its own internal clock (OFF),
or to a clock signal from an external device (ON).
• On
The instrument’s time based functions will be syn-
chronized to the clock from an external device con-
nected to the MIDI terminal.
• Off
The instrument uses its own internal clock (default).
You can set the External Clock in the Function
Settings (page 56).
The PC settings instantly reconfigure all impor-
tant MIDI settings (as shown below). The selec-
tions are PC1, PC2 and OFF.

Local Settings
External Clock Settings
• If you can’t get any sound out of the instrument, Local Control
may be the most likely cause. Playing the keyboard results in
no sound when Local is set to OFF.
NOTE
• If External Clock is ON and no clock signal is being received
from an external device, the Song, Style, and metronome
functions will not start.
