Global mode
The Global mode offers settings which affect the entire SGproX.
Changes you make are memorized as soon as they are made.
The sound etc. will be as it was in the mode in which you were before entering
Global mode.
1. CHANNEL (Global MIDI channel setting)
Global channel
This setting specifies the MIDI channel that will be used to transmit/receive musical data in Program mode,
to transmit data from assignable controllers which have been assigned to internal control, and to transmit/
receive system exclusive messages.
The Global MIDI channel can be set from 1 to 16, meaning that only the rear panel MIDI OUT A is used.
Range of settings
1 to 16
Factory setting

Changing a channel
This setting switches a timbre channel for all of the performances.
Specify the channel which is to be changed and the new desired channel, and press
〈
+ /YES
〉
in response to
the “OK?” prompt. If the new channel is already being used by a timbre, the display will ask “Already used
OK?.” If not, the display will ask “Are you sure OK?” Use the
〈

〈

〉
switches to execute or
terminate the operation.
Range of settings
Old channel
A1 to B16
New channel
A1 to B16
Since changes will apply to the performances that are in internal memory, you will need to re-select the perfor-
mance after executing this command.
2. LOCAL (Local Control setting)
This setting specifies whether or not the SGproX’s keyboard will control the internal tone generator. With a
setting of OFF, the SGproX’s keyboard will be disconnected from the internal tone generator, but will con-
tinue to transmit MIDI messages.
This setting allows you to prevent notes from being played in duplicate when a sequencer etc. is connected
to the SGproX, and the sequencer echoes back the data (i.e., when the sequencer re-transmits the data that is
receives). Normally you will leave this setting ON.
Range of settings
OFF, ON
Factory setting
ON
If Local Control is turned OFF, operations of
the damper pedal or of assignable controllers
assigned to internal functions will have no ef-
fect on the SGproX’s internal tone generator.
(MIDI messages will be transmitted.)
3. EX FILTER (Exclusive Filter setting)
This setting specifies whether or not MIDI exclusive data will be received. With a setting of DIS, exclusive
data will not be received. Universal exclusive data (master volume and master volume) will be transmitted
and received regardless of this setting.
Also, system exclusive data will be received regardless of this setting if you are in page 7

.
Normally you will leave this set to DIS, but set it to ENA when you wish to edit the SGproX from an external
device such as a computer. While exclusive data is being received, the lower line of the LCD will indicate
“now receiving ...”
