MIDI

MIDI (Musical Instrument Digital Interface) is a world-standard interface that enables electronic musical instruments and computers to communicate with each other so that instructions and other data can pass between them. This makes it possible to create a system of MIDI instruments and devices that offer far greater versatility and control than is available with isolated instruments.

MIDI In: This terminal receives data from an external MIDI device. MIDI Out: This terminal transmits data from the instrument to another MIDI device. The

transmitted data include the note and touch velocity produced while playing on the piano as well as voice changes. The MIDI system in the unit has 16 channels numbered from 0 to 15. Each of them is responsible for a instrument voice. When the piano receives control from external device, the active channel is determined by the MIDI setting of the piano or control message.

Connection Examples

Output to an external sound generator Connect the MIDI Out terminal of the piano and MIDI In terminal of an external device (keyboard, synthesizer, or sound module). The external device will response to your playing. In this way, you can play two instruments at same time or play on your instrument to sound on another MIDI device. Output from an external MIDI device Connect the MIDI In terminal of the piano and MIDI Out terminal of an external device. Data generated on another device can sound on your piano. Connect with computer You can transmit your performance to a computer to utilize advanced recording, composing and editing available from software on the computer. MIDI music stored on the computer can be played back through your instrument.

USB - The USB connector allows you to connect the piano directly to your computer’s USB port. The features of the USB interface are the same as MIDI, but both MIDI In and MIDI Out data run in the same USB port and cable. The USB interface is compatible with Windows XP/Vista and MAC.
