Using MIDI
For two MIDI instruments to be communicated, they must be connected
with MIDI cables. In a basic example,
the MIDI OUT terminals of this keyboard could be connected to the MIDI
OUT terminals of a sequencer, allowing you to record and play back the
performance data from this keyboard.
The keyboard can send out several
types of MIDI messages (such as:
PROGRAM CHANGE and NOTE).
Please refer to the MIDI I

Your keyboard includes the MIDI feature. (Musical Instrument Digital Interface) MIDI is the universal standard for
sending and receiving performance
data between electronic musical instruments.
Using MIDI, you can play music on
your keyboard and another instrument
simultaneously while pressing the keys
on only one. Record your music to a
sequencer, acquire a wider selection
of preset tones from a sound module.
Every MIDI equipped instrument has a
MIDI OUT terminal, and some also
have a MIDI IN and a MIDI THRU
terminal. Each of these terminals
serves in different purposes. MIDI
OUT sends MIDI data to ( talks to )
other MIDI instruments.
This keyboard has a MIDI OUT terminal. Please refer to the following instructions.
