Yeah... The A6 multi-mode is actually very flexible and fairly easy to set
up once you get the hang of it.

- You can set up a sound of the multi-mode to not trigger a sound on the
internal keyboard, but turn on MIDI. Without having the keyboard in front of
me, I think its something as silly as a setting called "Enabled" in the
multi mode menu where you set the patch note range. Then you set which
channel you wish for the A6 keyboard to send out on.

- You can set up a sound to be NOT triggered by touching the A6 keyboard,
but to be triggered by MIDI. Again, I don't have the keyboard in front of
me, but I think the setting you use is KEYBOARD in the multi mode menu where
you set the patch note range. You select the channel you wish to receive
other keyboard information, and you are good to go.

I love the A6 multi mode. So much better than carrying around 8 keyboards!
