I would like to use my Korg pa80 as a master keyboard for the ketron X1. can someone explain to me how it's done. I what to use the keys on the pa80 to control the sounds on the x1.

thanks

MC. I do not know about PA80 + X1, but as a Guide, this is how its done on the Yamaha.

Richard Bower. Yamaha Demonstrator uses a Tyros + PSR290. (Now PSR292) The Tyros (Master) is split last key left. The full length of 290 triggers Tyros ACC & Lower voice. This leave you the full length of Tyros to play right hand melody. No Voices are required from the 290 so you can position it close under the Tyros with just the keys showing,no buttons required.

MIDI SETTING for 2 Yamaha Keyboards

Master Top keyboard. Set Key Split to last key LEFT
Select FUNCTION
Select MIDI
Select ALL PARTS then press EDIT
Use NEXT to select RECEIVE
Set First top Part to CH1 LEFT
Use NEXT to select CHORD DETECT
Tick Channel 1
SAVE INTO USER with a name.
The PSR292 now controls the Tyros ACC & Lower voice over its full length.

On the X1 .......


Press F6 for midi , than press F1 and make sure the global channel is set to midi channel #1 . Do the same thing with F2 for receive .... global channel 1 .

Make sure the PA80 is on channel #1 as well.

try plug cable midi out from the pa8o in to midi in to X1 in,then go to global page 5 on the pa try the settings on it so you get it working on the X1, and set things up on the X1 for what ever you want, i do it the other way, i use my yamahe PF 70 as a controler and it works fine , you have to try different things,hope you get it going, good luck, best regards,BENNO
