SEND CH
• Settings: OFF, 1 — 16
• Basic setting: See table at left.
In any MIDI control setup, the MIDI channels (1 through 16) of the
transmitting and receiving equipment must be matched for proper data
transfer. The SEND CH function lets you set the MIDI transmit channels
for the keyboard parts.
Part Explanation Basic Setting
LEFT Left voice in Split mode (see page 41) 3
RIGHT1 Main voice 1
RIGHT2 Second voice in Dual mode (see page 38) 2
You can set each keyboard part to transmit on a separate channel. If
you set a part to OFF, the MIDI data for that part will not be transmitted.
● MIDI Reception
The Clavinova always receives MIDI data in the “Multi Timbre” mode. This is a mode in which the
Clavinova voices can be independently controlled on different MIDI channel numbers (1 through 16) by an
external MIDI device. This means that you can produce the sound of a full band or ensemble on the
Clavinova by using a computer or MIDI sequencer.
■ Local Control ..........................................................................................................
LOCAL
• Settings: ON, OFF
• Basic setting: ON
The term “local control” refers to the control of the internal tone gen-
erator by the keyboard. You will normally play the Clavinova with the
Local Control function set to ON.
Turning off the local control separates the keyboard from the tone
generator, so that the Clavinova will not output any sound when you play
the keyboard. Since keyboard performance data is still output via the
MIDI jacks, however, you can use this setting when you want to play an
external MIDI tone generator from the Clavinova’s keyboard without
sounding the internal voices.
To turn the local control on or off, press the LOCAL button. The data
dial and [–] and [+] buttons cannot be used.
