MIDI reception (RC) filters
→[MIDI]
The RD-170 contains four parameters that allow
you to specify whether (on) or not (off) the fol-
lowing messages should be received when the
RD-170 is controlled by an external sequencer,
computer, etc.
(1) Press [EDIT] (lights), followed by [13], [14], [15]
or [16].
Press and hold the numeric button in question
to display the abbreviated function name.
(2) Press the [UPPER] (red) or [LOWER] (green)
button to select the part whose setting you
want to change.
(3) Use [DEC÷NO]/[INC÷YES] to select on (receive)
or off (do not receive).
(4) Press [EXIT] (or [EDIT]) to leave the Edit mode
or select the other part and change its setting
too.
Note: This setting can be saved (see p. 28).
Local Control
→[MIDI]
The Local Control parameter allows you to establish
or remove the connection between the RD-170’s
keyboard/sequencer and the internal tone genera-
tor.
When set to on (default), playing on the RD-170’s
keyboard causes the corresponding notes to sound.
If you select off, the corresponding MIDI messages
are no longer sent to the internal tone generator –
but they are still transmitted to the MIDI OUT port
and hence to external MIDI instruments.
This parameter can be used for combinations involv-
ing one internal (Upper, for example) and one exter-
nal sound (Lower).
(1) Press [EDIT] (lights), followed by [SETUP].
Press and hold [SETUP] to display the abbrevi-
ated function name.
(2) Press the [UPPER] (red) or [LOWER] (green)
button to select the part whose setting you
want to change.
(3) Use [DEC÷NO]/[INC÷YES] to select on (Part con-
nected to the internal tone generator) or off
(connection broken).
(4) Press [EXIT] (or [EDIT]) to leave the Edit mode
or select the other part and change its setting
too.
Note: This setting can be saved. See below.
[13] PC rc: Refers to program change messages that
can be used for assigning internal sounds to the
Upper or Lower part.
