When controlling the D-05 in mono mode, voice messages

(except for note events and pitch bend) are received on the

basic channel.

G.CH (global channel)

When controlling the D-05 in mono mode, if the external

device has a global channel (one channel lower than the

basic channel), voice messages (except for note events

and pitch bend) can be received together on the global

channel.

MdeOFF (mode message o)

Mode messages from the external device are not received;

the key mode specied for each patch determines the

assignment.

SepCH

(Separate Mode Receive CH)

1–16

If you select separate (solo) mode as the key mode, the upper and

lower tones can be controlled on separate channels. The basic

channel controls the lower tone and the receive channel you

specify here controls the upper tone.

Local

If this is “OFF,” this unit’s keyboard section is disconnected from

its sound engine. Performance data from this unit is transmitted
