MIDI Functions

For details on how to set these parameters, refer to “Setting a Function Menu Parameter” (p. 22).

MIDI parameters other than “Local” are saved as soon as you press [FUNCTION] and turn off its LED.

MIDI Parameters

Parameter

Value

Explanation

Local

OFF, ON
(default: ON)

If the data generated when you play the keyboard is sent to the sound generator via two routes (1) and (2) as
shown in the diagram, the notes will overlap or be cut off. To prevent this, you should turn “Local Off” to
break route (1). Choose the “OFF” setting if you’ve connected the E-09 to a sequencer.

*

The setting of this parameter is cleared when you switch off the E-09’s power.

MIDI TxRx

ALL, KBD,
STL, SNG,
OFF
(default: ALL)

Selects the part(s) that will transmit and receive MIDI.

ALL:

All parts

KBD:

Only the keyboard parts (Main, Dual, Split, Auto Bass)

STL:

Only the arranger parts (Backing 1–6, Backing bass, Backing drums)

SNG:

Only the song parts (1–16)

OFF:

None of the E-09’s parts will transmit or receive MIDI messages.

Sync Rx

OFF, ON
(default: OFF)

Specifies whether or not the E-09 will synchronize to an external MIDI device. You can use synchronization
when the MIDI OUT connector of an external device is connected to the E-09’s MIDI IN connector. (If you’ve
connected the IN and OUT connectors in the opposite direction, refer to the owner’s manual of the external
device you’ve connected.)

OFF:

The E-09 will not synchronize with the other MIDI device.

ON:

The E-09 will receive MIDI Start (or Continue) messages, and will begin song recording or playback in
synchronization with the subsequently received MIDI Clock messages. When the E-09 receives a Start
message, it will wait briefly for MIDI Clock messages. If the E-09 receives MIDI Clock messages, it will
synchronize to them. If the E-09 does not receive MIDI Clock messages, it will use its own tempo. In either
case, a MIDI Stop message will stop playback or recording.

*

The arranger does not receive MIDI Continue messages.

Style PC

OFF, 1–16
(default: 10)

Program change messages will be transmitted/received when you select a different music style within the E-
09.

NTA Rx14

OFF, ON
(default: 10)

NTA stands for “Note-to-Arranger.” Notes you play in the left side of the keyboard are sent to the arranger
together with the chord data. These notes can also be received via MIDI from an external MIDI keyboard con-
troller or other device. If you want to use the arranger without playing the E-09’s keyboard, turn this setting
“ON” and transmit these note messages (from your computer or external MIDI device) on MIDI channel 14 to
the E-09.

Pitch Bend

OFF, ON
(default: ON)

Turns transmission/reception of Pitch Bend messages on/off. These messages temporarily raise or lower the
pitch of the tone.

Modulation

OFF, ON
(default: ON)

Turns transmission/reception of Modulation messages on/off. These messages add vibrato to the sound.
(Control Change CC01)

Prog
Change

OFF, ON
(default: ON)

Turns transmission/reception of Program Change messages on/off. These messages are used to select tones
or music styles.

Velo Rx

ON, 1–127
(default: ON)

Turns transmission/reception of velocity data on/off. This applies only to note messages received via MIDI.
If this is “ON,” the E-09 will use the velocity values that it receives. Otherwise, the E-09 will use the fixed ve-
locity value (1–127) you specify here.

Clock Tx

OFF, ON
(default: ON)

Specifies whether or not MIDI Clock messages are to be transmitted during arranger playback or song record-
ing. Use this when you want to synchronize an external MIDI device with the E-09.

Start Stop

OFF, ON
(default: ON)

Specifies whether or not Start/Stop/Continue messages are to be transmitted when arranger playback or song
recording starts or stops. Turn this “Off” if you want to control a MIDI organ or other sound module without
playing/stopping the arranger.
