This determines the channels over which MIDI information will be
transmitted. The Upper keyboard can be set to send over channels 1 or 4,
while the Lower keyboard can send over 2 or 5. The Pedalboard
automatically sends over channel 3. The MIDI receive channel of each
connected MIDI device should match the numbers set here.

LEAD
Determines Internal or External control of the Lead Voices. When set to
Internal, Lead Voices are played from the Electone and the sounds from a
connected MIDI instrument can be played via MIDI channel 1 (or channel 2,
when the To Lower function is on). When set to External, the Lead Voices
can only be played from the connected instrument via MIDI channel 4.

SYNC
Determines the source of the timing control, for rhythm synchronization
purposes. Setting this to Internal gives the Electone timing control over the
connected rhythm machine. This also allows you to start and stop the
rhythm patterns of the connected rhythm machine from the Electone's panel
controls. Setting this to External gives timing control to the connected
rhythm machine.

EXP. (Expression)
Determines the control of the expression functions. Ordinarily, this control is
set to AUTO. However, when it is set to INT., you can manually control the
expression pedal during M.D.R. playback. When set to EXT., another
(external) Electone can be used to control the expression pedal functions.

When using another MIDI
device to play the Electone's
voices, you must set the MIDI transmit
channel(s) of the connected device to
match the receive channel(s) of the
Electone. The MIDI receive channels
of the Electone are automatically set
to the following values:
Upper:1
Lower: 2
Pedal: 3
Keyboard Percussion: 15 (receive
channel only)
When the power is turned on,
INT. is set to Lead and Sync
as well as AUTO to EXP. These
settings cannot be saved to the
Registration Memory buttons.
When set to EXT., the transmit
channel of the MIDI device
connected to MIDI IN jack of EL-27
should be set to 16.
