■ Local Control
......................................................................................................................................................
“Local Control” refers to the fact that, normally, the PSR-320/420 key-
board controls the internal tone generator, allowing the internal voices to be
played directly from the keyboard. This situation is “Local Control on”
since the internal tone generator is controlled locally by its own keyboard.
Local control can be turned off, however, so that the keyboard does not play
the internal voices, but the appropriate MIDI information is still transmitted
via the MIDI OUT connector when notes are played on the keyboard. At
the same time, the internal tone generator can respond to MIDI information
received via the MIDI IN connector. This means that while an external
MIDI sequencer, for example, plays the PSR-320/420 internal voices, an
external tone generator can be played from the PSR-320/420 keyboard. The
default Local Control setting is “on”.
Overall Functions
■ Initial Data Send
...........................................................................................................................................
Transmits all current panel settings to a MIDI data storage device before
actually recording your performance. With the “InitSnd?” function selected,
press the [+/YES] button to start transmission. When the data has been
transmitted, “End” will appear momentarily on the display and return to the
“InitSnd?”.
Local o on
ExtClock oFF
• The song data will not be played
back correctly, if the panel set-
tings for the song has not been
recorded in advance. To record
the panel settings to an external
device, engage the external
device in the record mode and
execute the Initial Data Send
operation.
■ External Clock
..................................................................................................................................................
Reception of external MIDI clock signal can be enabled or disabled as
required.
When disabled (“oFF”), the PSR-320/420 is controlled by its own inter-
nal clock. When MIDI clock reception is enabled (“on”), however, the PSR-
320/420 is controlled by an external MIDI clock signal received via the
MIDI IN terminal. The default setting is “oFF”.
• If the External Clock function is
turned “on” but the external
clock signal is interrupted for
more than 400 milliseconds, the
internal clock is re-selected
automatically.
• External Clock setting is retained
in memory even when the power
switch is turned OFF, as long as
batteries are installed or an AC
adaptor is connected.
