Use the [4
]–[6
] buttons to specify the function assigned to the footswitch (actually the note num-
ber), or the function assigned to the foot controller (actually the control change number). About the func-
tions which can be assigned to the footswitch or foot controller, refer to
.
4-4
(Only for the FOOT CONTROLLER Setting) Determine the part to which the foot-controller assigned func-
tion is applied by using the [7
]/[8
] buttons.
4-5
Use the [F]/[G] buttons to determine the MIDI port which is to be used when communicating with the
MFC10.
Here, the USB port (USB1, USB2) can be selected even though the MFC10 does not have a USB connector.
This is because a computer can be used instead of the MFC10. (The computer can transmit the same type of
data that the MFC10 transmits to the Tyros5. For details, see the bottom of this page.)
4-6
Use the [H] (CH SELECT) button to determine the MIDI channel which is to be used when communicating
with the MFC10.
5
Press the [I] (SEND MFC10 SETUP) button to send the settings
made here to the MFC10.
6
Disconnect the MIDI cable from the Tyros5 and the MFC10, and
connect the MIDI OUT terminal of the MFC10 to the MIDI IN ter-
minal of the Tyros5 according to the setting above by using a
MIDI cable.
7
Operate the MFC10 to confirm whether you can properly control the Tyros5 from the
MFC10 as set in step 4.
8
Press the [EXIT] button to return to the MIDI Template Selection display and save the
settings above to the USER tab.
Actually the pair of the footswitch num-
ber and the note number, the pair of the
foot controller number and the control
change number, and the MIDI channel
for communication set above are trans-
mitted to the MFC10.

Using a computer or another MIDI instrument instead of the MFC10
Keep in mind that the following two settings on the MFC10 Page are for saving not to the MFC10 but to the
Tyros5 as a MIDI template.
• Note number/Tyros5 function assignment pairs
• Control change number/Tyros5 parameter change assignment pairs
If you are not using an MFC10, you can have note numbers and control change messages from any other
appropriate MIDI device (such as a computer, sequencer or master keyboard) control the Tyros5. Make sure to
set the appropriate channel in this display for control by the external device.
