Program Change ON/OFF

Normally the Clavinova will respond to MIDI program change numbers received from an external keyboard

or other MIDI device, causing the correspondingly numbered Clavinova voice to be selected. The Clavinova

will normally also send a MIDI program change number whenever one of its voices is selected, causing the

correspondingly numbered voice or program to be selected on the external MIDI device if the device is set up to

receive and respond to MIDI program change numbers.

This function makes it possible to cancel program change number reception and transmission so that voices

can be selected on the Clavinova without affecting the external MIDI device, and vice versa.

Other MIDI Functions

"Local Control" refers to the fact that, normally, the Clavinova keyboard

controls its internal tone generator, allowing the internal voices to be played

directly from the keyboard. This situation is "Local Control ON" since the

Tone Generator

internal tone generator is controlled locally by its own keyboard.

Played from Clavinova

Local control can be turned OFF, however, so that the Clavinova key-

keyboard.

board does not play the internal voices, but the appropriate MIDI informa-

tion 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 sequence recorder, for example, plays the Clavino-

va's internal voices, an external tone generator can be played from the

Clavinova keyboard.
