Chapter 6. Connecting External Devices
Switching Local Control on and
Off
When connecting a MIDI sequencer, set Local Control to
“OFF.”
As illustrated, information describing what has been played
on the keyboard is passed to the internal sound generator
over two different routes, (1) and (2). As a result, you hear
overlapping or intermittent sounds. To prevent this from
happening, route (1) must be severed, by setting the unit to
what is known as “Local Off.”
fig.localcont.e
Local Control ON: The keyboard and the internal sound
generator are in a linked state.
fig.localon.e
Local Control OFF: The keyboard and the internal sound
generator are in an unlinked state. No sound will be
produced by the keyboard when it is played.

* When a Roland MT series instrument is connected, it is not
necessary to make the Local Off setting. MT units transmit
Local Off messages when their power is switched on. If you
turn on the power in the order of the DP-970
MT series,
Local Off will be set automatically.
