XD9-XD3

F7 Program Change Tx:
For each section you can establish whether the Program Change message associated with the Voice in use is
also to be transmitted to MIDI Out. The transmission function is enabled or disabled using the F10 Select push
button. The 2nd/Prog section refers to the Second Voice and to the Program memory, processed as a Single
Voice. The Voice sections 1, 2, 3 and 4 refer to the single Voices of a Program.
F8 Program Change Rx: The same as F7 Program Change TX, but dedicated to the Program Changes received on MIDI In 2 (Keyboard).
F9 Clock SoftThru:
The XD9 can receive and transmit the MIDI Clock that is used to synchronise the Arranger, Song Play and the
Sequencer with other external units. The function of the START push button depends on these settings. The param-
eters available are selected using the CURSOR +/- push buttons and are enabled using F10 Select. They are:
Clock Out: When this function is enabled, the XD9 sends the MIDI Clock to MIDI Out and therefore it can
control the tempo values during reproduction in external sequencers.
Clock In: When enabled, the reproduction controls of the XD9 (including tempo) depend on MIDI Clock
inputs received on MIDI In and not on the push buttons on the control panel.
Soft Thru 1: When enabled, the MIDI Clock received on MIDI In 1 GM is sent back to MIDI Out.
Soft Thru 2: When enabled the MIDI Clock received on MIDI In 2 Keyboard is sent back to MIDI Out
F10 Utility:
This is the only menu that is to be called up from the initial page of the MIDI menu and is used to access some
settings dedicated to the MIDI ports. The parameters (whose values of are called up by pressing the relative
function push button repeatedly) are:
F1 MIDI In 1: This is used to modify the initial setting of the MIDI port from GM to Keyboard.
F2 MIDI In2/Computer: The same as F1 MIDI In 1. The setting also establishes the type of MIDI input
used by the Interface Computer.
F3 MIDI Out: This establishes which group of MIDI channels will be sent to MIDI Out.
F4 Computer Out: This establishes which group of MIDI channels will be sent to the Computer Interface.
F5 Escape: This returns to the initial page of the MIDI menu.
F6 Computer: This selects the type of computer to which the XD9 is connected.
F7 Local On/Off: This is a MIDI condition for which, when set as Off, all the XD9 sections are no longer
controlled by the keyboard but only by the MIDI In input.
