Transmits all parts including the keyboard parts (RIGHT 1, 2, 3, LEFT), with the exception of
Song parts.
Basically the same as “ALL PARTS” with the exception of how keyboard parts are managed.
The right-hand parts are handled as a “UPPER” instead of RIGHT 1–3 and the left-hand part is handled as a “LOWER.”
In this setting, the Tyros4 functions as a “master” keyboard, playing and controlling one or more connected tone generators or other devices (such as a computer/sequencer).
Basically the same as “Master KBD1” above, with the exception that Aftertouch messages are not transmitted.
Playback or recording (Song, Style, Multi Pad, etc.) synchronizes with an external MIDI clock instead of the Tyros4’s internal clock. This template should be used when you wish to set the tempo on the MIDI device connected to the Tyros4. Playback or recording of the Tyros4 synchronizes with an external clock received via MIDI A.
MIDI accordions allow you to transmit MIDI data and play connected tone generators from the keyboard and bass/chord buttons of the accordion. This template lets you play melodies from the keyboard and control Style playback on the Tyros4 with the left-hand buttons.
Basically the same as “MIDI Accord1” above, with the exception that the chord/bass notes you play with your left hand on the MIDI Accordion are recognized also as MIDI note events.
MIDI pedal units allow you play connected tone generators with your feet (especially convenient for playing single note bass parts). This template lets you play/control the chord root in
Style playback with a MIDI pedal unit (connected to MIDI B only).
This template lets you play the bass part for Style playback by using a MIDI pedal unit (connected to MIDI B only).
No MIDI signals are sent or received.

MIDI System Settings
The explanations here apply to the SYSTEM Page in step 4 on page 124 .
Use the [A]/[B] buttons to select the parameters (below), then set the ON/OFF status by using the [1 ]–[8 ] buttons.
1 Local Control
Turns the Local Control for each part on or off. When Local Control is set to “ON,” the keyboard of the Tyros4 controls its own (local) internal tone generator, allowing the internal Voices to be played directly from the keyboard. If you set Local to “OFF,” the keyboard and controllers are internally disconnected from the Tyros4’s tone generator section so that no sound is output when you play the keyboard or use the controllers. For example, this allows you to use an external MIDI sequencer to play the Tyros4’s internal Voices, and use the Tyros4 keyboard to record notes to the external sequencer and/or play an external tone generator.
2 Clock setting, etc.
CLOCK
Determines whether the Tyros4 is controlled by its own internal clock or a MIDI clock signal received from an external device. INTERNAL is the normal Clock setting when the Tyros4 is being used alone or as a master keyboard to control external devices. If you are using the Tyros4 with an external sequencer, MIDI computer, or other MIDI device, and you want to synchronize it to that device, set this parameter to the appropriate setting: MIDI A, MIDI B, USB 1, or USB 2. In this case, make sure that the external device is connected properly (e.g., to the Tyros4’s MIDI IN terminal), and that it is properly transmitting a MIDI clock signal.
TRANSMIT CLOCK
Turns MIDI clock (F8) transmission on or off. When set to OFF, no MIDI clock or Start/
Stop data is transmitted even if a Song or Style is played back.
RECEIVE TRANSPOSE
Determines whether or not the Tyros4’s transpose setting is applied to the note events received by the Tyros4 via MIDI.
START/STOP
Determines whether incoming FA (start) and FC (stop) messages affect Song or Style playback.
NOTE
If the Clock is set other than INTERNAL, the Style, Song or Multi Pad cannot be played from the panel buttons.
3 MESSAGE SW (Message Switch)
SYS/EX.
The “Tx” setting turns MIDI transmission of MIDI System Exclusive messages on or off. The “Rx” setting turns MIDI reception and recognition of MIDI System Exclusive messages generated by external equipment on or off.
CHORD SYS/EX.
The “Tx” setting turns MIDI transmission of MIDI chord exclusive data (chord detect. root and type) on or off. The “Rx” setting turns MIDI reception and recognition of MIDI chord exclusive data generated by external equipment on or off.

Use the [A]/[B] buttons to select the channel.
2
Use the [1 ]–[8 ] button to set the desired channel to ON or OFF.
You can also set all channels to OFF by pressing the [I] (ALL OFF) button.
Setting the Chord Type for Style Playback via MIDI Receive
The explanations here apply to the CHORD DETECT Page in step 4 on
. These settings let you determine the chord type for Style playback, based on the note messages received via MIDI. The note on/off messages received at the channel(s) set to “ON” are recognized as the notes for detecting chords in Style playback. The chords to be detected depend on the fingering type. The chord types will be detected regardless of the [ACMP] or split point settings. When several channels are simultaneously set to “ON,” the chord type is detected from merged MIDI data received over the channels.

MFC10 Settings
The explanations here apply to the MFC10 Page in step 4 on
.
By connecting an optional MFC10 MIDI Foot Controller to the Tyros4, you can conveniently control a wide range of operations and functions by using your feet—perfect for changing settings and controlling the sound while you perform live. Different functions can be assigned to each of the footswitches and up to five foot controllers (optional) can be connected to the MFC10, for additional sound-shaping possibilities.
1
Connect the MIDI IN terminal of the MFC10 to one of the MIDI
OUT terminals of the Tyros4 by using a MIDI cable.

4-2 4-3 4-4
On this display, two settings (below) can be made:
• Each footswitch (F00–F29) on the MFC10 sends a note number to the Tyros4, and the Tyros4 determines how it responds to (which function is executed by) that note number.
• Each foot controller on the MFC10 sends control change messages over a specific control change number to the Tyros4, and the Tyros4 determines how it responds to (which parameter is changed by) that control change number.
4-1 Use the [A]/[E] buttons to select “FOOTSWITCH” or “FOOT CONTROL-
LER.”
NEXT PAGE
130 Tyros4 Reference Manual
4-2
Use the [2 ]/[3 ] buttons to select a footswitch number (F00–F29) or a foot controller number (1–5) to which the function is assigned.
Please note that a note number is assigned to each footswitch and a control change number is assigned to each foot controller beforehand and you cannot change the settings.
4-3
Use the [4 ]–[6 ] buttons to specify the function assigned to the footswitch (actually the note number), or the function assigned to the foot controller (actually the control change number). About the functions which
can be assigned to the footswitch or foot controller, refer to page 122 .
4-4 (Only for the FOOT CONTROLLER Setting) Determine the part to which the function assigned to the foot controller is applied by using the [7 ]/
[8 ] buttons.
4-5 Use the [F]/[G] buttons to determine the MIDI port which is to be used when communicating with the MFC10.
Here, the USB port (USB1, USB2) can be selected even though the MFC10 does not have the USB connector. This is because the computer can be used instead of the MFC10. (The computer can transmit the data equivalent to the data the MFC10 transmits to the Tyros4. For details, see the bottom of the page.)
4-6 Use the [H] (CH SELECT) button to determine the MIDI channel which is to be used when communicating with the MFC10.
5
Press the [I] (SEND MFC10 SETUP) button to send the settings here to the MFC10.
