The Utility Functions
■ Local Control ON/OFF
.................................................................................
“Local Control” refers to the fact that, normally, the Clavinova key-
board controls its 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 Clavinova key-
board does not play the internal voices, but the appropriate MIDI infor-
mation is still transmitted via the MIDI OUT connector when notes are
played on the keyboard. At the same time, the internal tone generator
responds to MIDI information received via the MIDI IN connector. This
means that while an external MIDI sequencer, for example, plays the
Clavinova’s internal voices, an external tone generator can be played
from the Clavinova keyboard.
Press the LOCAL LCD button to alternately turn local control ON and
OFF.
• The Local setting is retained in
memory even when the power is
turned off if the BACKUP page MIDI
parameter is turned ON (page 107),
otherwise the default setting is ON.
MIDI 2
The “MIDI 2” function page contains the MIDI FILTER settings which can be used to turn transmission
and reception of certain types of MIDI data on or off.
■ Clock
..............................................................................................................................
This function determines whether the Clavinova’s auto-accompani-
ment or song record/playback timing is controlled by the Clavinova’s
own internal clock or an external MIDI clock signal received from exter-
nal equipment connected to the MIDI IN connector.
Press the CLOCK LCD button to alternately select the EXT. (exter-
nal) or INT. (internal) clock mode.
• The Clock setting is retained in
memory even when the power is
turned off if the BACKUP page MIDI
parameter is turned ON (page 107),
otherwise the default setting is INT.
• If the Clock Mode is set to EXT. and a
MIDI clock signal is not being received
from an external source, the rhythm,
ABC and other clock-dependent fea-
tures will not operate.
