Connecting External Devices
Connecting the RM-700 to a V-LINK compatible image device allows
you to control the images with the RM-700.
To prevent malfunction and/or damage to speakers or other
devices, always turn down the volume, and turn off the power
on all devices before making any connections.
Connection Examples:
1.
Press the [V-LINK] button to switch the V-LINK On/Off.
* This is set to “Off” (unlit) when you turn on the power.
• While V-LINK is switched on, no sound is produced when you press
any of the twelve keys at the left end of the keyboard.
Performance data can be exchanged between the RM-700 and
external MIDI equipment, allowing them to control each other. For
example, you can play one device from the keyboard of another
device, or switch sounds remotely.
To prevent malfunction and/or damage to speakers or other
devices, always turn down the volume, and turn off the power
on all devices before making any connections.
• When the RM-700 is connected to a MIDI sequencer, set it to “Local
Off.” Refer to “Disconnecting the Internal Sound Generator and
Keyboard (Local Control)” (p. 198).

What’s MIDI?
“MIDI” stands for “Musical Instrument Digital Interface.” It is a
universal standard that allows performance data to be
exchanged among electronic musical instruments and
computers.
The RM-700 provides MIDI connectors so that performance
data can be transferred between it and other devices. By using
these connectors to connect other devices with the RM-700,
you can take advantage of a wide range of possibilities.
