When the LP-380 is turned o, all parameters return

to their default seings.

Changing the MIDI channels

Data can be transmied and received on MIDI channels 1

through 16 (C01–C16).

When the LP-380 is turned on, transmission channel 1 (C01)

is automatically selected.

When the MIDI function mode is entered, the MIDI

channel seing normally appears.

To specify the MIDI channel setting after changing

other settings in the MIDI function mode, press the

PIANO1 buon.

In the Layer mode, selecting the transmission channel

specifies the channel for layer 1. The transmission chan-

nel for layer 2 will automatically be set to the following

channel. For example, if MIDI channel 7 is selected for the

sound of layer 1, MIDI channel 8 will automatically be

specied for the sound of layer 2. If MIDI channel 16 is se-

lected for the sound of layer 1, channel 1 will be specied

for the sound of layer 2.

Local On/Off

With the Local On seing, playing the LP-380’s keyboard

produces the sounds of the performance as well as trans-

mits MIDI data. With the Local Off setting, playing the

LP-380’s keyboard does not produce the sounds of the

performance; MIDI data is only transmied. Normally this

parameter is set to Local On (default seing: on).

The Local Off setting should be selected when using the

LP-380 as a master keyboard, for example, to play sounds

from a connected MIDI device (a keyboard, sound module,

etc.). The LP-380 will not produce sound, but the perfor-

mance will be played by the connected MIDI device.

Select the Local Off setting (oFF) when using the LP-380

as a sound module, for example, when the LP-380 is con-

nected to a sequencer with its Echo Back seing (function

that sends back data that the sequencer received) selected

in order to prevent echoing of returned data.

MIDI

What is MIDI?

MIDI, is the abbreviation of Musical Instrument Digital

Interface. It is an international standard that was created

to connect and transfer data between electronic musical

instruments, computers and other devices.

What can you do with MIDI?

Thanks to MIDI, you can use the LP-380 to control other

instruments, use other instruments to control the LP-380,

and use a sequencer to create complex musical pieces.

When you use the LP-380 keyboard or pedal, or select a

sound, the notes, pedal activation and change in sound are

transmitted to another instrument, or are recorded by a

sequencer.

Connections

Commercially available MIDI cables are used to transfer

MIDI data. Connect these cables from the MIDI connectors

of the LP-380 to the MIDI connectors of the external MIDI

device that you want to exchange data with. There are two

types of MIDI connector.

MIDIINconnector

This connector receives MIDI messages.

The MIDI IN connector lets you play the LP-380’s sounds

from an external MIDI device (e.g., MIDI keyboard or se-

quencer). Use a MIDI cable to connect the LP-380’s MIDI

IN connector to your external MIDI device’s MIDI OUT

connector.

MIDIOUTconnector

This connector transmits MIDI messages.

The MIDI OUT connector lets you control an external

MIDI device using the MIDI messages transmitted from

the LP-380. Use a MIDI cable to connect the LP-380’s MIDI

OUT connector to your external MIDI device’s MIDI IN

connector.

MIDI function mode

When the LP-380 is turned on, the MIDI parameters are

set to transmission channel 1, all reception channels (1–16),

Local On and Omni O.

These settings can be changed from the MIDI function

mode.
