The tones you play with the onboard keyboard of the F701 can be selected from the panel or from an external MIDI application, such as a DAW. However, if you specify the tone by sending MIDI messages from a DAW, the sound played from the piano keyboard will depend on the SMF Play Mode setting.
If you want to play the piano with the tone specified from the DAW, perform the following:
- Send Bank Select (CC00, CC32) and Program Change messages from the DAW via MIDI Channel 4
- Please refer to "Tone List" in the RP701 / F701 / RP107 / F107 MIDI Implementation for specific Bank Selects and Program Changes. - Set the SMF Play Mode to "Internal"
Hold down the [] button and turn the [
] knob to select "Internal".
- Please refer to "Making Various Settings (Function Mode)" in the RP701 / F701 Owner's Manual.
