P-80
The Function Mode
F8.5: Control Change ON/OFF......................................................................................................
Normally the P-80 will respond to MIDI control change data received from an external
MIDI device or keyboard, causing the voice on the corresponding channel to be affected by
pedal and other “control” settings received from the controlling device (the keyboard voice is
not affected). The P-80 also transmits MIDI control change information when the pedal or
other appropriate controls are operated.
This function makes it possible to cancel control change data reception and transmission so that,
for example, the P-80’s pedal and other controls can be operated without affecting an external MIDI
device.
Use the [–/NO▼] and [+/YES▲] buttons to turn control change transmission and reception “On”
or “OFF”.
Press the [–/NO▼] and [+/YES▲] buttons simultaneously to recall the default setting “On”.
NOTE
• For information on control changes that can be used with the P-80, refer to the MIDI Data Format on
page 41.
F8.6: MIDI Transmit Transpose ....................................................................................................
This function allows the MIDI note data transmitted by the P-80 to be transposed up or
down in semitone increments by up to plus or minus 12 semitones. The pitch of the P-80 itself
is not affected.
Use the [–/NO▼] and [+/YES▲] buttons to set the desired amount of MIDI transmit transposi-
tion. The range is from “–12” (down one octave) through “0” (no transposition) to “12” (up one
octave).
Press the [–/NO▼] and [+/YES▲] buttons simultaneously to recall the default setting “0”.
F8.7: Panel/Status Transmit ............................................................................................................
This function causes all the current P-80 panel settings (selected voice, etc.) to be transmit-
ted via the MIDI OUT terminal. This is particularly useful if you will be recording perfor-
mances to a MIDI sequence recorder such as the Yamaha MIDI Data Filer MDF3 which will
be used to control the P-80 on playback. By transmitting the P-80 panel settings and recording
them on the MIDI sequence recorder prior to the actual performance data, the P-80 will be
automatically restored to the same settings when the performance is played back.
Press the [+/YES▲] button to transmit the panel/status data. “End” will appear on the LED
display when the data has been successfully transmitted.
NOTE
• Panel setting data that is transmitted to an external device can only be reloaded on another P-80.
Panel setting data can also be directly transferred to or from another P-80.
F8.8: Bulk Data Dump ............................................................................................................................
This function is used to transmit all data stored in the User Song Recorder memory to a MIDI data
storage device such as the Yamaha MIDI Data Filer MDF3, other sequence recorders, or MIDI com-
patible computers.
Press the [+/YES▲] button to begin bulk transmission. “End” will appear on the LED display
when the data has been successfully transmitted.
NOTE
• Bulk data dump will not function when the user song recorder is in operation.
• User song recorder data that is transmitted to an external device can only be reloaded on another P-
80. Recorder data can also be directly transferred to or from another P-80.
• The reload operation cannot be executed when the user song recorder is in operation or the Function
mode is engaged.
•
No MIDI note/panel data transmission or data reception occurs during a bulk data dump transmit operation.
