Chapter 4. Connecting External Devices

Switching Local Control On and Off
When connecting a MIDI sequencer, set Local Control to
"OFF."
As illustrated, information describing what has been played
on the keyboard is passed to the internal sound generator
over two different routes, (1) and (2). As a result, you hear
overlapping or intermittent sounds. To prevent this from
happening, route (1) must be severed, by setting the unit to
what is known as "Local Off."

* When a Roland MT series instrument is connected, it is not
necessary to make the Local Off setting. MT units transmit
Local Off messages when their power is switched on. If you
turn on the power in the order of the HP101e→ MT series,
Local Off will be set automatically.
Local On is set when the power is switched on.
