Status
Range: BOTH, LOCAL, MIDI, or *EXT*
This page determines the MIDI Status of a track. The four possible settings are:
BOTH Keys, controllers, etc., will play KT voices and will be sent via MIDI on the selected
MIDI channel. Incoming MIDI will play KT voices.
LOCAL Keys, controllers, etc., will only play KT voices, and will not send any data out via MIDI.
Incoming MIDI will play KT voices.
MIDI Keys, controllers, etc., will be sent out via MIDI when the track is played from the
keyboard. However, keys played or recorded on the track will not play KT voices.
Incoming MIDI will play KT voices. This is comparable to Local Off on some
keyboards. Use this status when you want to create MIDI-only tracks for sequencing or
playing remote MIDI devices. When MIDI status has been selected for a track, instead
of showing the program name, the display will show “*MIDI-CHAN-#,” indicating its
status and what MIDI channel it is sending on (assuming MIDI-TRK-NAMES=OFF on
System•MIDI page 9; see Section 2 — System•MIDI).
*EXT* Same as MIDI status except that incoming MIDI will not play internal voices. This is
useful when using the KT as a Master MIDI Controller with an external sequencer and a
number of other remote MIDI devices. It is also good for turning off certain tracks when
using the KT as a multi-timbral receiver in MULTI mode, thereby limiting the number of
MIDI channels to which the KT will respond.
This chart details the behavior of sequencer tracks for each MIDI Status:
