In order for your external MIDI device to play the sound you want, you

need to know what program change number to transmit to it. Please read

your external MIDI device’s manual for a list of it’s program change

number/sound assignments. Then read “8. Program Change Number”

in the Reference section on page 58 for the procedure to send a desired

program change number from the CN piano.

That is how to layer the CN piano’s sound with a desired sound from an

external MIDI device.

LOCAL CONTROL

You may want to play and only hear your external MIDI device’s sound,

without the CN piano’s sound. You can turn off the CN piano’s sound

using a function called “local control”.

Local control determines whether or not the CN piano will produce a

sound when you play it’s own keyboard. When local control is on, the CN

piano produces sound as you play the keys. When off, the piano will not

produce a sound when you play the keys. The CN piano’s keyboard will

however, continue to transmit MIDI information to an external MIDI

instrument.

Press the CHURCH ORGAN button while holding down the TOUCH

and TRANSPOSE buttons. The LED display will read “on”, which means

the piano is currently set to local control on. To turn it off, use the

VALUE button.

Press any SOUND SELECT button to exit from the function mode.
