To connect your keyboard to another MIDI-
equipped device, you must use a MIDI cable
(available at RadioShack).
To send MIDI data from your keyboard, use
a MIDI cable to connect the keyboard’s
MIDI
OUT
terminal to the other device’s MIDI IN
terminal.
To receive MIDI data on your keyboard, use
a MIDI cable to connect the keyboard’s
MIDI
IN
terminal to the other device’s MIDI OUT
terminal.

Your keyboard can send and receive several
different types of MIDI data. The keyboard’s
tones, rhythms, and other types of MIDI data
are sent automatically as you play.
The keyboard parts (Channels 1 through 4)
are sent over the corresponding channels.
When you turn auto harmonize on (see
“Using Auto Harmonize” on Page 12), the
harmonized notes are sent.
You can set accompaniment parts to be sent
over the corresponding channels (Channels
6 – 10). See “Changing MIDI Settings.” The
keyboard’s prerecorded tunes cannot be
sent as MIDI data.
The keyboard can receive data over all 16
MIDI mixer channels at the same time.
The received message is interpreted as
chord change data when you set
MODE
to
CONCERT CHORD
or
FINGERED
. See
“Changing MIDI Settings.”

The “MIDI Implementation Chart” on
Page 41 shows specific details about how
your keyboard is compatible with the MIDI
standard. The following notes explain how
the keyboard works within the MIDI
standard.
Basic Channel
— The MIDI standard
allows for the use of up to 16 channels to
exchange data. Like a TV broadcast, each
of these channels can contain different data.
The keyboard can send and receive data on
all 16 of these channels.
Mode
— The MIDI standard allows for four
separate modes of operation. The keyboard
sends and receives data in Mode 3. This
means that the data sent and received by
the keyboard can be polyphonic and can be
sent or received on only one channel at a
time.
Note Number
— The MIDI standard allows
for note numbers from 0 through 127. This
number represents each possible note that a
device can play. The lowest note number (0)
is five octaves below middle C and the
highest note number (127) is three octaves
above middle C. The keyboard can send
and receive all 128 note numbers.
Velocity
— The MIDI standard allows for
velocity numbers from 0 through 127.
Velocity is how fast a key is pressed (or if
the key is pressed at all) or how loud a note
sounds. A velocity of 0 means that the key is
not pressed. The lowest velocity (1) is
pianissimo and the highest velocity (127) is
fortissimo. The keyboard can send and
receive all 128 velocity numbers.
Pitch Bender
— The keyboard receives
(but cannot send) pitch bending signals.
Control Change
— This feature sends data
on various controllers, each having its own
number. For the details of each parameter,
see “MIDI Data”.
Program Change
— This feature changes
the preset sounds. Each sound number
corresponds to a program number between
0 and 127. See “MIDI Data”.
System Exclusive
— This feature sends
special signals unique to the keyboard.
All Notes Off
— This feature is a kind of
panic button: it stops the current sounds
from playing. Only the keyboard receives
this message.

You do not need to make both connections if
you are only either sending or receiving.

• Always turn off power to your keyboard and
the other MIDI device before you connect or
disconnect MIDI cables.
• As you make the cable connections, be
sure to align the MIDI cable pins with the
matching holes on your keyboard’s MIDI
OUT and MIDI IN terminals. If you have
trouble plugging in the cable, do not force it!
You might damage the plug or the
instrument.
