■ MIDI Sync Mode
Entering the MIDI sync mode lets you synchronize the tempo with an external MIDI device or music
software running on your computer. There are two modes: a master mode that syncs to the tempo of
this Digital Keyboard, and a slave mode that syncs to the tempo of an external MIDI device or music
software running on your computer.
MIDI timing clock messages are used for tempo synchronization, so the external MIDI device and
computer music software must also support such messages. In addition to the settings of this unit, you
also need to adjust the settings related to the MIDI timing clock on the music software running on your
external MIDI device or computer.
To change the MIDI Sync Mode setting, use the procedure under “Configuring Settings” (page
EN-196).
• When using the MIDI sync mode, a USB cable connection with the external MIDI device or computer
is recommended. Bluetooth Low Energy MIDI connection using the Wireless MIDI & audio adaptor
may result in noticeable data communication delay.
• When the MIDI sync mode is slave mode, the functions below will not operate unless the MIDI timing
clock is continuously received.
– Metronome
– Rhythm
– Songs
– Recorder
– Arpeggiator
– Sample tone looping
• When the MIDI sync mode is slave mode, the displayed tempo value is replaced with “Slave”, “S”, or
“SLV”, which all stand for “Slave”.
