Memory Protect
Before you record a track or pattern, or edit the musical
data, you will need to turn off the memory protect
setting in Global mode. For details, please see
“Protecting the memory” on page 130.
About MIDI
Track status
You can specify whether each track will use the
internal M3 sounds, or use an external MIDI tone
generator.
When the Track Status (P2– MIDI page) is set to INT or
BTH, operating M3’s keyboard and controllers will
sound and control M3’s own tone generator.
When Status is set to EXT, EX2 or BTH, operating M3’s
keyboard and controllers will sound and control the
external tone generator. (The MIDI channel of the
external tone generator must match the MIDI Channel
of the track that is set to EXT, EX2 or BTH.)
If you wish to use the Sequencer mode of the
instrument as a 16-track multi-timbral tone generator,
select INT or BTH.
For details, please see “Status” on page 226 of the
Parameter Guide.
Synchronizing the sequencer with an
external MIDI device
The record/playback tempo of M3’s sequencer can be
synchronized to an external MIDI device such as a
sequencer or rhythm machine. For details, please see
“Synchronizing the playback of the KARMA function,
Drum Track function or sequencer” on page 622 of the
Parameter Guide.
