In order to select Rhythm Sets, the MIDI channel of the

10 of the Performance. When the XP-30 is shipped, Part 10 is
set to MIDI channel 10.

The MIDI messages transmitted by the external MIDI device
will be received by the XP-30 to select Performances as

In order to select a Performance, the MIDI channel of the
transmitting device must match the XP-30’s Control Channel
parameter (SYSTEM/MIDI/PERFORM MIDI). In order to
select the Patch or Rhythm Set of a Part, the transmit channel
must match the receive channel of the Part. However if the
Control Channel parameter and the receive channel of a Part
have the same setting, the Control Channel parameter setting
will take priority so that messages received on this channel
will select Performances.
