Recording to the Sequencer from an External MIDI Source

The on-board sequencer can be used to record MIDI data from external sources, such as MIDI bass pedals, keyboards and hardware or computer-based sequencers. This is done by assigning the desired MIDI Receive Channels to 'Keyboard' mode.

  1. Press the [FUNCTION] button.
  2. Press the [H] 'MIDI' button.
  3. Use the [BACK] and [NEXT] buttons to display the 'PRESET' page in the screen.
  4. Press the [A] 'All Parts' button.
  5. Press the [8^] 'EDIT' button.
  6. Use the [BACK] and [NEXT] buttons to display the 'RECEIVE' page in the screen.
  7. Use the [A] and [B] buttons to select a desired MIDI Channel.
  8. Use the '2' Up Button and '2' Down Button buttons to select 'KEYBOARD' for that Channel.

Any MIDI Channels with 'KEYBOARD' selected will receive incoming MIDI data from an external source, which can be recorded onto a corresponding Track in the 'Song Creator'.
