MIDI Parameters
The parameters in the “MIDI” display all relate to MIDI control.
MIDI SYNC
Settings: Internal, External␣
When this parameter is set to “Internal” the QY70 is controlled by
its own internal clock. When set to “External” the QY70 is controlled
by a MIDI clock signal received from an external device such as a
sequencer or music computer (i.e., playback of the QY70 is synchro-
nized to that of an external sequencer or other device). Please note
that the QY70 will not run on its own when this parameter is set to
“External”. The QY70 can also control playback of an external MIDI
sequencer when this parameter is set to “Internal”.
MIDI CONTROL
Settings: Off, In, Out, In/Out
This parameter simply turns MIDI control of the QY70 (i.e., synchro-
nized playback) on or off. When set to “Off” the QY70 will not
respond to external MIDI control. The “In” setting (MIDI input only)
allows control of the QY70 from an external MIDI device, the “Out”
setting (MIDI output only) allows the QY70 to control an external
MIDI device, and the “In/Out” setting (MIDI input and output) allows
the QY70 to both be controlled by and control an external MIDI
device.
