Notes:
Normally, keyboard play is assigned
to Channel 1 and the drum pads are
assigned to Channel 10. When you
use auto accompaniment, each part
is assigned to Channels 7–10.
When you use the keyboard as the
sound source for another MIDI
device, all 16 channels are assigned
musical instrument parts (Channel
10 is reserved for drum parts only,
per MIDI standard).
• The mixer settings also affect the
corresponding MIDI output.
