If necessary, set the MIDI channel, Local 
on/off, etc.
Set the MIDI Channel
MIDI features sixteen MIDI channels, numbered 1-16. Even 
after the MIDI cables are connected, the connected devices 
must be set to use the same MIDI channels, otherwise no 
sound will be produced. When the pt-2000 is turned on, 
Channel “1” is selected.
To make the setting, while holding down 
the [Key Touch/Demo Song] button, press 
any key from C5 to D#6. 
The sequence of keys C5-D#6 corresponds to MIDI

<Ex.> Set the MIDI Channel to 10
While holding down the [Key Touch/Demo 
Song] button, press the key of A5.
fig.6-04.e
Here the pt-2000’s MIDI channel for sending/receiving 
is both set to 10.
Local On/Off
With the keyboard connected to a MIDI sequencer, keyboard 
performances can be recorded to the sequencer; the 
sequencer can also be used to play back performances.
fig.6-05.e
With the sequencer’s “Thru” function on, the same notes 
may be sounded twice.
This is because the keyboard’s performance data arrives at 
the sound generator via two different routes, (1) and (2). This 
can cause the sound to become strange, and also puts strain 
on the instrument’s polyphonic capabilities. To prevent this 
from happening, route (1) must be separated, by means of 
what is called “Local Off.”
