EZ-250i Owner’s Manual
This function lets you enable or disable keyboard control over the EZ-250i’s
voices in the Function mode (page 67). This would come in handy, for example,
when recording notes to MIDI sequencer. If you are using the sequencer to play
back the voices of the EZ-250i, you would want to set this to “off” — in order to
avoid getting “double” notes, both from the keyboard and from the sequencer.
Normally, when playing the EZ-250i by itself, this should be set to “on.”

This determines whether the style and song playback functions are controlled by
the PortaTone’s internal clock (off) or by MIDI clock data from an external
sequencer or computer (on).
This should be set to on when you want to have style or song playback follow the
external device (such as a rhythm machine or a sequencer). The default setting is
off.

These settings can be made in the Function mode (page 67).
The most common use for the Initial Setup Send function is in recording a song
on a sequencer that is intended for playback with the EZ-250i. Essentially, this
takes a “snapshot” of the EZ-250i settings and sends that data to the sequencer.
By recording this “snapshot” at the start of the song (before any actual perfor-
mance data), you can instantly restore the necessary settings on the EZ-250i in the
Function mode (page 67). Provided there is a pause in the song, you could also do
this in the middle of a song — for example, completely changing the EZ-250i set-
tings for the next section of the song.
