To transmit MIDI messages, set the Mode Switch to the MIDI OUT position.

The note number is transmitted when the corresponding key is pressed.
Use the Octave Shift Switch, and select the position appropriate to the octave range you want. GZ-5 can send
note numbers 17 to 108 but it has 32 keys only.

The values of the velocity, the pitch bend and the modulation switches are automatically set up to the initial
