What is MIDI?
MAKING THE CONNECTIONS
The MIDI IN and MIDI OUT terminals, located on the rear panel of the unit, offer broadened
musical possibilities through the use of MIDI. The following shows the description of MIDI and
How you can use MIDI with the Digital Drum Set.
MIDI is the abbreviation for Musical Instrument Digital Interface. MIDI is a world wide standard
that makes it possible for various electronic musical instruments and other devices, such as
computers, to "communicate with each other. For example, by connecting a MIDI tone
generator to the Digital Drum's MIDI OUT terminal, you can play the tone generator's voices
from the drum's pads and pedals.

Connect the Digital Drum Set MIDI OUT jack to
a MIDI keyboard’s MIDI IN terminal.
Connect the Digital Drum Set MIDI IN jack to a
MIDI keyboard’s MIDI OUT terminal.
This setup allows you to use the drum pad to
control another MIDI instrument. Playing the drum
pads will result in the other MIDI instrument’s voice
sounding simultaneously, creating a thicker overall
sound.
In this setup, the digital drum can be used as a tone
generator and its voices can be played from a MIDI
keyboard. Using a keyboard as a controller, it is
possible to play the drum voices that are not
assigned to the pads/pedals.
