Connecting a Personal Computer
By connecting a computer to the USB [TO HOST] or MIDI terminals, you can transfer data between
the instrument and the computer via MIDI. To do this, install the USB interface (such as the UX16,
UX96, or UX256) driver and Musicsoft Downloader software.
There are two ways you can connect the P-140 to a computer:
1. Connecting the USB port on the computer to the P-140 via a USB interface.
2. Using a MIDI interface and the P-140’s MIDI terminals.
For more information, see below.

computer before connecting any cables. After making connections, turn on the power to the
