So, I just got this keyboard today and it was driving me nuts to play some simple VST's . The key is to turn off local and not the speakers.. midi under menu settings ...then first tab under system...I turn all local song, style, left, main, and layer off. .Also once local is set to off, you can save a preset under user (tab over)..in midi off shift tab to user and then hit save...an option will allow you to name it..I just deleted the "off" and renamed it " MIDI On...now all I need to do is go to my user preset and it loads it up whenever it is needed. I agree the manual is complete garbage. I hope this helps.

The midi settings can actually be saved but Yamaha didn't make it intuitive. You selected the midi profile under Preset and edited it. Instead, tab to the right to go under User. Hit Edit to make the changes you desire and then Exit out. That will bring you back to the User midi profiles (which should be blank at this time). Select Save to save the edits you made under a profile name. That's it. You can create more profiles as needed depending on your use cases. Since they're saved in the User space, they'll survive reboots.

Thank you for the good video I have an additional question, When playing through style playback Can I send multi-channel to DAW? For example, a base note played in a style I want to send it to DAW to play the tone on Spectrasonic instruments, and I want to immediately do multi-track recording as DAW, and I want to send the media generated by each channel (style channel on the keyboard) to the virtual instrument for playback

thank you very much for this tutorial ! I do have the DGX670 and I just bought the Scarlett 2i2 3rd gen but because it didnt have enough inputs for Instruments I changed to the Scarlett 4i4 , in the front I put in the microphone and at the back I use the line inputs to record my DGX670 but it doesn't work yet with a jack male 2x stereo jack male cable, I'll have to figure it out. Also I have midi ports on the 4i4, may I ask how you connect your DGX 670 with your Scarlett interface and which cable you use ?

solve all your problems and just buy a mixer with the channels you need then take the speaker outs from the mixer and put one in each side of the usb interface for stereo input and yours done thats what i have done and it works perfect..

Hey. Native Instruments has couple of different KOMPLETE KONTROL keyboards and also they make there own softwere. KOMPLETE 14 is there flagship collection of instruments, samples,the cost of the software runs close to 2 grand. one can make movie sound tracks with it. pretty impressive. I would like to just get the software.

Thanks for your informative tutorial. I managed to save my MIDI OFF by selecting it and turning on channel 1 and then saving that selection to USB FLASH DRIVE which I load on my next power on. I use Cakewalk by Bandlab as my DAW and I am able to record my Grand Piano as an Audio Track and play it back but if I select instrument Labs Soft Piano and try to record it I am unable to do so and only hear my Grand Piano voice while playing and not my Soft Piano vst plug in and no recording takes place. I cannot figure out what settings I'm missing or how to turn ON or OFF Keyboard Out or Loopback on the DGX670 thus your help would be greatly appreciated.

I'm zero in music. I'm interested to start music with this yamaha. I was asking myself a similar question: should i have to buy a master beyboard anyway, like STUDIOLOGIC SL88 STUDIO. Something you seem to call midi controller. Google founded your video. I must ask you one thing : why you did not try the 'master KBD' option in midi settings ? It sounds exactly like : it should behaves as a master midi keyboard. No ? Midi settings + master kbd = midi master keyboard. If it works. The second question is : can DGX670 be a DAW controller, not only the keyboard. It is a standalone studio. All these buttons and controls could be mapped for DAW software?

Midi looks a real pain in the arse on this keyboard. I hate faffing around having to reset things because the keyboard won't store changes. They should either have it save changes and include a reset setting. Or put proper midi connections on the keyboard. I have a 20 year old keyboard with proper midi in out. You just select the instrument in logic and the keyboard controls it. You don't have to set up anything. If I want the natural sounds from the keyboard I just use line out. Don't know why Yamaha had to go usb route which means you have to go through menu's and setups that won't even save on the keyboard. The keyboard itself is great and you wont find a better deal for sounds at this price, but for midi as with all Yamaha keyboards, its is a deal breaker for me personally. Korg and Kawai have proper midi connections with no faffing around.

using as a midi you have to set that up in your daw what version of max os are you on iam running ventura 13.2 and its a plug and go with logig and garage band i justhave to make sure i choose external midi or audio for using all the yamaha built in stuff option 2 is use a usb interface and a mixer and run right to the mixer and then just choose usb interface 1 and 2 as your input and your also good to go for what ever you want to do for that stuff this can vary on some older versions of mac os but anything from 11 to 13.2 should be straight forward as i have mentioned
