CONTROLLING THE EXTERNAL MIDI EQUIPMENTS
1. Hook up as shown above.
Connect the MIDI OUT of this unit to the MIDI IN of the equipment you want to control.
If necessary, connect the MIDI OUT of the Lower Keyboard to the MIDI IN 2 (LOWER) and the
MIDI OUT of the Pedal Keyboard to the MIDI IN 1 (PEDAL) of this unit.
Set OFF the poly-pressure sending function, if any, on the Lower Keyboard
you use. Otherwise, it may cause abnormal sounds.
2. Recall the MIDI template “Use Ex. Zone” (without Lower and Pedal keyboard) or “Use Ex.
w/3KBD” (with Lower and Pedal keyboard) (P. 96 #1).
By this, the transmission of the Keyboard Channel stops and the infos. of the External Zone is
sent from MIDI OUT.
3. Set the Zone, and the data that is to be recorded to the Combination Preset, if necessary.
See “ZONES” on the next page for how to set the Zone.
You can control the External MIDI Equipment such as Sound Modules up to 3 (inter-
nal keyboard), 2 (external Lower keyboard), 1 (external Pedalboard) Zones by your
XK-3C.
NOTE ON THE SOUNDING POINT
The External Zone sounds at a little deeper point of
the key than the Drawbar tone.
This is for outputting the velocity infos. to the Ex-
ternal Zone.
