LOCAL CONTROL
Local Control determines whether G3 MIDI Data is allowed to control the internal
sound processor. This function is turned on at the factory. Local Control turned off is
recommended in conjunction with sequencers that feed MIDI information received
from the G3 back into the G3 to control the internal sound processor. In this setup, the
G3 sound processor would receive two identical sets of control data when Local Control
is on. Disable Local Control (off) to reduce the amount of data received and avoid
unnecessary duplication of signals and unwanted side effects. See the following table
for reference.

Control data from the input channels (pads)
control the internal sound processor (C) and leave
the unit through the MIDI outputs (A). Data that is
indirectly fed back into the unit (B) is a duplicate
of the data from (C). Switch off Local Control if
you find such a connection structure to avoid
unwanted side effects.
off
Prevents MIDI control data of the input channels
(pads) from controlling the internal sound
generator. This data can still control other
connected devices via MIDI out (A). If this data is
routed back into the unit (B), the sound generator
can be controlled indirectly. However, duplication
of signals is avoided.
