You can apply 3-band parametric EQ to each Part to adjust 
the sound. 
The function is the same as the one in the EQ display 
(page 158) in the Performance Part Edit mode. 
From this display you can set how each individual Part 
responds to various MIDI data, such as Control Change 
and Program Change messages. When the relevant 
parameter is set to “on,” the corresponding Part responds 
to the appropriate MIDI data. 
The function is the same as the one in the Receive Switch 
display (page 158) in the Performance Part Edit mode. In 
addition to the parameters which can be set in the 
Performance Part Edit mode, the Program Change and 
Bank Select can be set in this display of the Mixing mode. 
Mixing Job—Convenient functions
