NOTE:

• Normally this parameter should be set to 1 (on). If MIDI looping or sound duplication occurs when an external device with a MIDI Echo function (such as a sequencer or a DAW) is connected to the M-solo, set this parameter to 0 (off). The keyboard will then only transmit note messages out MIDI and the internal sounds will play according to note messages received via MIDI.

Generic control

Selects whether to transmit MIDI Control Changes from the M-solo.

If this parameter is set to 0 (off), the M-solo will transmit all Control Change messages.

When set to 1 (on), all control change signals except those for Expression and Damper are blocked. Select 1 (on) if you are playing a typical MIDI instrument in combination with the M-solo.
