Computer etc
MIDI Channels
MIDI allows you to send the data for multiple parts ar the same time,
with each part being sent over a separate MIDI channel. There aze 16
M{Di channels, numbered 1 theough 16, and MIDI channel data is
always included whenever you exchange data (key press, pedal cp-
eration, etc.)
This piano is equipped with multi-nmbre capabilities. which means
it can receive messages over all 16 MIDI chanrely and play up to 16
parts at the same time.

by selecting a MIDI channel (} to 16) and then sending the appropri-
ate message

? General MIDI
As we have already seen, MIDI makes is possible to exchange musi-
cal dala between devices produced by different manufacturers. This
musical data does not consist of the notes themselves. but rather in-
formation on whether a keyboard key iz pressed or released, and the
tone nurcber
If tone number 1 on a keyboard produced by Company A is PIANO
while tone number 1 on a Company B's keyboard is BASS, for exam-
ple, sending data from Company A's keyboard to Company B's key-
board produces a result entirely different from the original. Ifa com-
puter, sequencer or other device with auto accompaniment capabili-
Res is used to produce music data tor the Company A keyboard which
has 16 pacts (16 channels) and then that data (s sent to the Company
B keyboard which can receive only 10 parts (10 channels), the parts
that cannot be played. will not be heard.
The standard for the tone numbering sequence, the number of parts,
and other general tactors that determine the sound source contigura-
tton, which was arrived at by mutual consultations by manufactur-
F ets, is called General MIDI
<The General MIDI standard detines the tone numbering sequence,
2 the drum sound numbering sequence, the number of MIDI channels
3 that can be used, and other general factors that determine the sound
source configuration. Because of this, musical daca produced on a
General MIDI sound source car: be played back using similar tones
and identical nuances as the original, even when played on another
manufacturers sound source.
This piano conforms with General MIDI standards, so it can be con
