When set to "ALL" (normal operation), the P50-m plays all incoming MIDI notes. When set to "E0n, " the P50-m plays only even-numbered MIDI notes. Similarly, when set to "odd, " only odd-numbered MIDI notes are played. When combining two units for 64-note polyphony, set the Receive Mode to "E0n" on one unit and to "odd" on the other.

With "ot2, " data received over the selected MIDI Receive Channel (see page 17) is filtered out, and only the data on the other channels is relayed. Generally, when connecting another tone generator to the MIDI OUT and using the P50-m with a sequencer or computer, this should be set to "ot2. " If MIDI Receive Channel is set to "ALL" or the Voice number is set to 29 (no sound), all incoming MIDI data is relayed, regardless of the MIDI OUT setting. Settings: ot1, ot2 1.
