It's a good thought, but I don't think it will work. There's no indication in the manual that the upper and lower voices are associated with different MIDI channels.According to page 59 in the Owner's Manual, "The sustain function does not affect split voice." I'm afraid there's no way to do what you want on the keyboard itself.
However, on page 110 of the Owner's Manual, the MIDI Implementation Chart indicates that Sustain (or Control Change 64) can be transmitted as well as received by the keyboard. That would suggest that you could use Sustain on the Split Voice by turning off the Local Control (so the keyboard is silent and acts like a MIDI keyboard controller), send the keyboard's MIDI to a computer or other external MIDI-capable device, and have the external device send the MIDI back to the keyboard to be sounded (treating the keyboard as a MIDI sound module). You should then be able to turn Sustain on or off in the Split Voice by using the external MIDI device to send a "Control Change 64 on" message to the keyboard on whichever MIDI channel is being used by the Split Voice.
As far as I know, the outgoing MIDI does use different channels for the different "keyboard parts"-- that is, Main, Dual, and Split-- at least on all of my PSR-E models. Main is sent on channel 1 (0), Dual is sent on channel 2 (1), and Split is sent on channel 3 (2).
So a (keyboard-playable) part that transmits on a particular channel will not respond to MIDI received on that same channel? Then I guess you could not record your live performance into an external sequencer (DAW), and then have that performance played back on the same board?Unfortunately, the panel voices on most of the "simpler" models do not respond to received MIDI. That's why the whole "output the keyboard's MIDI and bounce it back to the keyboard with Local Control turned off" is necessary.
Muchas gracias, Dios te bendiga muchoSegún la página 59 del Manual del propietario, "La función de sostenido no afecta la voz dividida". Me temo que no hay forma de hacer lo que quieres en el teclado.
Sin embargo, en la página 110 del Manual del propietario, el cuadro de implementación MIDI indica que el sostenido (o cambio de control 64) se puede transmitir y recibir en el teclado. Eso sugeriría que podría usar Sustain en la voz dividida apagando el control local (para que el teclado esté en silencio y actúe como un controlador de teclado MIDI), envíe el MIDI del teclado a una computadora u otro dispositivo externo con capacidad MIDI y tenga el dispositivo externo envía el MIDI de regreso al teclado para que suene (tratando el teclado como un módulo de sonido MIDI). Luego debería poder activar o desactivar el sostenido en la voz dividida utilizando el dispositivo MIDI externo para enviar un mensaje "Control Change 64 on" al teclado en cualquier canal MIDI que esté utilizando la voz dividida.
