After completing a song, you should save it (see p. 114). To keep you from accidentally erasing the song in the EXR-5/ EXR-3’s internal memory, the EXR-5/EXR-3 automatically selects Single after your first recording. Bear in mind that selecting “ALL” or “Keyboard” will erase the song in the USERSONG memory.

The word refers to many things, the most obvious being a connector type that is used by musical instruments and other devices to exchange messages relating to the act of making music. Each time you play on the EXR-5/EXR-3’s keyboard or start the Arranger (or Song), your instrument transmits MIDI data to its MIDI OUT.
PAGE 98
EXR-5_3_GBEF Page 98 Thursday, October 30, 2003 2:00 PM r EXR-5/EXR-3 Canales Channels MIDI can simultaneously transmit and receive messages on 16 channels, so that up to 16 instruments can be controlled. Nowadays, most instruments –like your EXR-5/EXR-3– are multitimbral, which means that they can play several musical parts with different sounds. Note: All EXR-5/EXR-3 parts are set to receive MIDI messages.

If you select “OFF”, the corresponding MIDI messages are no longer sent to the internal tone generator – but they are still transmitted to the MIDI OUT port and hence to external MIDI instruments.
