MIDI Functions
● Receive Mode
The “Rcv.Mod” function specifies the receive mode for the channel selected
via the Receive Channel function, above. The receive mode settings are as
follows:
• MIDI receive mode settings
will be retained even after
turning the power off. See
page 98 for the details.
• The initial default setting for all
channels is “nor.”
• In the Record mode, the Re-
ceive mode settings cannot be
set.
nor
Rcv.Mod
nor “Normal”. Received MIDI data is sent directly to the PSR-530
tone generator. If all channels are set to “nor”, the PSR-530
functions as a 16-channel multi-timbral tone generator.
oFF No MIDI data is received on channels set to “oFF”.
~ rE “Remote”. Received MIDI data is handled in the same way as
data generated by the PSR-530’s own keyboard. In other words,
a remote keyboard could be used to control the PSR-530 AUTO
ACCOMPANIMENT functions, etc.

Local Control
“Local Control” refers to the fact that, normally, the PSR-530 keyboard
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 on channels
set to the “nor” (normal) mode via the MIDI IN connector. This means that
while an external MIDI sequencer, for example, plays the PSR-530 internal
voices, an external tone generator can be played from the PSR-530 keyboard.
The default Local Control setting is “on”.
■
Clock
Reception of an external MIDI clock signal can be enabled or disabled as
required. When disabled (“off”), all of the time-based functions (Auto Accom-
paniment, SONG recording and playback, etc.) are controlled by its own
internal clock. When MIDI clock reception is enabled (“on”), however, all
timing is controlled by an external MIDI clock signal received via the MIDI IN
terminal (in this case the PSR-530 TEMPO setting has no effect). The default
setting is “off”.
