Omni mode
When the CS11/CS8 digital piano is turned on, the instrument is automatically set to ‘omni mode on’, allowing MIDI information to
be received on all MIDI channels (1-16). When the MIDI Channel setting is used to specify a transmit/receive channel, the instrument
will be set to ‘omni mode off’.
Multi-timbral mode and Split/Dual modes
Using Split mode with Multi-timbral mode enabled
Notes played in the lower section of the keyboard will be
transmitted on the channel that is 1 channel higher than the
specified channel. For example, if the MIDI channel is set to
3, notes played in the lower section of the keyboard will be
transmitted on channel 4.
Using Dual mode with Multi-timbral mode enabled
Notes played will be transmitted on two channels: the
specified channel and the channel that is 1 channel higher.
For example, if the MIDI channel is set to 3, notes played on
the keyboard will be transmitted on channels 3 and 4.
* If the specified MIDI channel is 16, the lower section / layered part will be transmitted on channel 1.
