Using Category Search to assign
Voices to the Parts
You can select Voices using the Category Search
function, just as is done in the Voice Play mode (page
32).
Assigning Voices to the Parts from a
computer
You can use a computer to select Voices to be
assigned to the Parts by specifying appropriate MIDI
messages. If you transmit the relevant Bank Select
MSB/LSB and Program Change messages to the S90
ES, the Part Voice corresponding to the MIDI channel
of these messages can be changed (page 107).
n Make sure that the MIDI Channel of the MIDI message is set
to the same value as the Receive Channel (ReceiveCh) of
the desired Part.

Playing Single-part Plug-in Board Voices
In the default settings, the Receive Channels are set
to 1 for the PLG1 Part, 2 for PLG2, and 3 for PLG3. If
the MIDI Port for a PLG Part is set to 1, the internal
Parts which are set to the same receive channel as
that of the Plug-in Part are also played when a Note
On message is received.
To prevent this from happening, set the receive chan-
nels of the Parts that you want to keep from playing to
“off,” or set the MIDI port of the Plug-in Part(s) to “2” or
“3” (page 100).
