MIDI Functions

By using the MIDI functions you can expand your musical possibilities. This section explains what MIDI is, and what it can do, as

well as how you can use MIDI on your instrument.

MIDI is an acronym that stands for Musical Instrument Digital Interface,

which allows electronic musical instruments to communicate with each

other, by sending and receiving compatible Note, Control Change,

Program Change and various other types of MIDI data, or messages.

The instrument can control a MIDI device by transmitting note related

data and various types of controller data. The instrument can be

controlled by the incoming MIDI messages which automatically

determine tone generator mode, select MIDI channels, voices and

effects, change parameter values and of course play the voices

specified for the various parts.

MIDI messages can be divided into two groups: Channel messages

and System messages.

What's MIDI?

MIDI Terminals

MIDI Connection

The electronic keyboard is equipped with a standard USB interface instead of

conventional MIDI IN and MIDI out connectors. The USB interface allows the

keyboard to be connected to a computer without the need to separately

purchase a MIDI interface for the computer. Most computers will automatically

recognize the keyboard as a MIDI interface, allowing MIDI messages to be

received from, or sent to, music programs running on the computer.

To connect the keyboard to a computer you will need a standard USB A-B cable

and suitable software such a music sequencing program.

Note:

Activate the computer from a sleep/suspended/standby mode before

connecting the USB cable.

Connect the USB cable to the instrument and a computer before

turning the power of the instrument on.
