FUNCTION B
UTT
ONS
12) MULTI-TIMBRAL MODE ON/OFF
This function allows the CN32 digital piano to receive data on more than one MIDI channel simultaneously. In this
mode, the CN32 digital piano can play different musical parts with different sounds for each part.
With multi-timbral mode enabled, an external sequencer can be used to enjoy an ensemble performance playing
multiple sound types (multi-timbral) on a single CN32 digital piano.
¡
Multi-Timbral On (On1 and On2)
This turns on the fl exible 16 part multi-timbral capability. Individual MIDI channels can be turned on and off, and
assigned any internal sound. The internal sound for each MIDI channel can be changed when the program change
number for the desired sound is received from external MIDI device and instruments or a personal computer. The
CN32 digital piano’s normal program change numbers are assigned in On1 (Please see page 49 for a list of the
program change numbers), and General MIDI program change numbers are assigned in On2.
¡
Multi-Timbral Off
This turns off the multi-timbral capability. Only one MIDI channel will be active and only the sound currently selected
will be heard when a MIDI signal is received.
Step 1
Press and hold the TOUCH and TRANSPOSE buttons, then press the EFFECTS button.
The display will alternate between showing ‘MLt’ (Multi) and on/off status. The default is off.
Step 2
Press the
S
or
T
VALUE buttons to toggle multi-timbral on1, on2 and off.
When the multi-timbral mode is OFF and MIDI information is received, only the currently selected internal sound
will be heard.
When the multi timbral mode is ON, the internal sound that is heard corresponds to any program change number
that was received from external MIDI devices and instruments or a personal computer. This sound may be different
from the internal sound that is currently selected using the SOUND SELECT buttons on the panel.
When multi-timbral mode is ON, the ON/OFF setting for each individual MIDI receive channel can also be set
(See page 55).
The CN32 digital piano’s multi-timbral mode defaults to ‘OFF’ each time the power is turned on.
