2 Setting Up: Power & Connections
MIDI Connections —————————————————————————
Although the QY20 can be played and programmed from the built-in
micro keyboard, an external MIDI keyboard connected to the MIDI IN
connector provides the added advantages of standard keyboard size and
key velocity sensitivity (if your keyboard has a velocity-sensitive key-
board). Connect the MIDI OUT connector of the keyboard to the MIDI
IN connector of the QY20, and make sure that your keyboard is set to
transmit on the appropriate MIDI channel. The QY20 MIDI channel as-
signments are as follows:
MIDI Channel Voice
1......................... Sequencer track TR1
2......................... Sequencer track TR2
3......................... Sequencer track TR3
4......................... Sequencer track TR4
5......................... Accompaniment track C1 (Chord 1)
6......................... Accompaniment track C2 (Chord 2)
7......................... Accompaniment track Ba (Bass)
10....................... Accompaniment track Dr (Drums)
This simply means that if your keyboard transmits on MIDI channel 1,
it will control the QY20 voice that is currently assigned to sequencer
track 1, and so on. See page 38 for instructions on how to assign differ-
ent voices to the SONG mode tracks.
DETAIL
Data received on MIDI channels other than those listed above also produce
sound, according to the selected Pgc Mode (page 162) and received MIDI
program change messages (see the MIDI Data Format booklet).
