Use the EL-200 as an XG Tone Generator
You can also use the EL-200 as an XG tone generator since the EL-200 is
compatible with the XG format. You can play back the commercially available
XG song data with the Electone’s M.D.R., and also play them using an external
sequencer (or sequencing software) and the internal XG tone generator.
The internal tone generator section of the EL-200 is normally set to EL Mode
for playing as an “Electone.”
Sending an appropriate system exclusive message from the sequencing software
(PC) to the EL-200 changes the mode to XG Mode, in which you can use the
Electone as an XG tone generator.
NOTE:
The EL-200 allows you to play
back the commercially available
XG song data using the M.D.R.
For more information on XG song
playback, see page 39.

Send the XG System On message, “F0, 43, 1N*, 4C, 00, 00, 7E, 00,
F7” from the PC to EL-200.
*N: Device Number (“0” on EL-200)
Once the XG System On message is received, the internal tone
generator will be in the XG Mode allowing the EL-200 to receive all
the MIDI messages defined by the XG format such as NRPN and Bank
Select.
NOTE:
When you create an XG song data
using a sequencing software, be
sure to insert the XG System On
message at the beginning of the
data. The internal tone generator
mode automatically changes to
XG when you start to play back
the data.
NOTE:
The internal tone generator mode
automatically changes to XG
when you play back commercially
available XG song data.
