Hi Markus So long as your external keyboard (or computer software) can transmit MSB/LSB/PC over MIDI, then you should be able to assign RD800 internal tones to MIDI channels 5-16, which will then be output from the RD800...

Hello wsimard Considering the RD-800 is primarily a 'Stage Piano', I think the live master controller functions provided have been very generous in comparison with previous RD models. We now have 4 assignable pots, 3 swi...
