Yamaha RY9 Musical Instrument User Manual


 
ASSIGNING THE PROGRAM CHANGE RECEIVE CHANNEL - You can have
the RY9 respond to program change messages from an external MIDI
keyboard or sequencer. For example, by pressing the voice selectors on
your keyboard, you can select the RY9’s drum kits. To do so, you must
assign the RY9’s program change receive channel to the same program
change channel number as the transmitting device. Hold [MODE] and press
[PAGE-] or [PAGE+] to access the Program Change function. The
abbreviation “PC” (Program Change) will appear in the lower left area of the
LCD, along with the current channel assignment (“01 ~ 16”, “OFF”). Press
[-1] and [+1] to assign the RY9’s MIDI Program Change receive channel
number.
Refer to the Drum Kit List on page 86 for the program change numbers exclusive to each drum kit.
ASSIGNING THE EXTERNAL IN VOICE TRANSMIT CHANNEL - The RY9 can
transmit MIDI signals generated by the External In voice (as played from the
guitar) in order to play an external tone generator. To do so, you must
assign the RY9’s External In voice channel to the same MIDI receive
channel number as the tone generator. Hold [MODE] and press [PAGE-] or
[PAGE+] to access the External In Channel function. The abbreviation “EXT
CH” (External In Channel) will appear in the lower left area of the LCD,
along with the current channel assignment (“01 ~ 16”, “OFF”). Press [-1]
and [+1] to assign the RY9’s External In voice channel number.
