• As shown in the chart at left when you select the internal preset style that is the closest to the type of style you wish to create the preset style data will be copied to a special memory location for recording you create record your new original style by adding or deleting data from the memory location p.97

• What s midi p.106
• No doubt you have heard the terms acoustic instrument and digital instrument in the world today these are the two main categories of instruments let s consider an acoustic piano and a classical guitar as representative acoustic instruments they are easy to understand with the piano you strike a key and a hammer inside hits some strings and plays a note with the guitar you directly pluck a string and the note sounds but how does a digital instrument go about playing a note p.106
• Midi functions p.106
• In the rear panel of your psr 540 there are midi terminals midi in midi out a to host terminal and a host select switch by using the midi functions you can expand your musical possibilities this section explains what midi is and what it can do as well as how you can use midi on your psr 540 p.106
• As shown in the illustration above in an electronic instrument the sampling note previously recorded note stored in the tone generator section electronic circuit is played based on information received from the keyboard so then what is the information from the keyboard that becomes the basis for note production for example let s say you play a c quarter note using the grand piano sound on the psr 540 keyboard unlike an acoustic instrument that puts out a resonated note the electronic instrument puts out information from the keyboard such as with what voice with which key about how strong when was it pressed and when was it released then each piece of information is changed into a number value and sent to the tone generator using these numbers as a basis the tone generator plays the stored sampling note p.106
• Midi and to host terminals p.107
• Midi functions p.107
• What you can do with midi p.108
• The psr 540 is an electronic musical instrument which is capable of transmitting and receiving over sixteen channels imagine that there are sixteen separate pipes in the connected midi cable when transmitting midi data from the psr 540 to an external device midi data is sent through the assigned pipe or midi channel and trans mitted to the external device for example several tracks can be transmitted simultaneously including the auto accompaniment data as shown below p.108
• Receive mode for all channels set to xg gm midi receive settings page 115 p.108
• Midi transmit settings page 114 initial data send page 117 p.108
• Midi receive settings page 115 p.108
• Midi functions p.108
• G use the psr 540 as a multi tone generator playing 16 channels at one time p.108
• G record performance data 1 16 channels using the psr 540 auto accompaniment on a external sequencer such as a personal computer after recording edit the data with the sequencer then play it again on the psr 540 playback p.108
• G play music from another keyboard no tone generator using the psr 540 xg tone generator p.108
• As you can see it is essential to determine which data is to be sent over which midi channel when transmitting midi data page 114 p.108
• This section covers basic information on data compatibility whether or not other midi devices can playback the data recorded by psr 540 and whether or not the psr 540 can playback commercially available song data or song data created for other instruments or on a computer depending on the midi device or data characteristics you may be able to play back the data without any problem or you may have to perform some special operations before the data can be played back if you run into problems playing back data please refer to the information below p.109
