A/D Input Block
This block handles the audio signal input from the A/D INPUT [L/MONO]/[R] jacks. Various parameters
such as volume, pan, and effect can be set for the audio signal and the sound is output together with other
Parts. An Insertion Effect, the System Effects, the Master Effects, and the Master EQ can be applied to the
audio signal input via the A/D INPUT [L/MONO]/[R] jacks.
Parameters related to the A/D Input block can be set as follows.
[PERFORMANCE]  [Mixing] (page 44)

Sequencer Block
This lets you create Songs by recording and editing your performances as MIDI data (from the controller
block or an external device), allowing you to play the data back with the tone generator block.
A Song is created by recording your keyboard performance as MIDI sequence data to individual Tracks.
The MONTAGE can store up to 64 Songs.
This is a memory location on the sequencer where your musical performances are stored. One Part can be
recorded to one track. Since the MONTAGE has 16 tracks for one Song, you can record and play back a
16-Part performance.
You can record your keyboard performance to the Song. You can record knob operations, controller
operations and Arpeggio playback as well as your keyboard playing to the specified Track as MIDI events.
Your keyboard performance and controller/knob operations will be recorded to the Track when the
corresponding Keyboard Control Switch for the Part is turned ON.
NOTE The Control Change messages and Parameter Change messages can be recorded by operating the Knobs. For
details on Control Change messages, see the Synthesizer Parameter Manual PDF document.
NOTE For detailed instruction, refer to the Owner’s Manual.
