USING A MIDI SOUND MODULE
To control a MIDI Sound Module from the SK PRO using both a single keyboard and Expanded Keyboards,
do the following:
CONNECT THE MIDI MODULE
Connect the MIDI OUT of the SK PRO to the MIDI IN of the
MIDI Sound Module.
LOAD THE “EXZ...”MIDI TEMPLATE (P. 158)
Th
is MIDI Template mutes the Keyboard Channels. If you
want also to transmit MIDI data on the Keyboard Channels,
you must turn them “ON” manually. See page 159 “MIDI
Channels” for instructions on how to do this.
