w MIDI IN & OUT Connectors
If you plan to use a MIDI keyboard or other instrument to
play and program the QY70, it should be connected to QY70
MIDI IN connector (see “MIDI Connections,” on page 15). The
MIDI OUT connector can be connected to an external tone
generator if you want to drive external voices from the QY70
sequencer, or a MIDI data recorder such as the Yamaha MDF2 if
you want to store your songs and patterns to floppy disk (page
225).
e LINE OUT/PHONES Jack
This miniature stereo phone jack can be used to connect
the output of the QY70 to a stereo sound system, or a pair of
stereo headphones with a miniature stereo phone plug can be
plugged in here for convenient monitoring (see “Audio Connec-
tions,” on page 14). The output level is adjusted via the VOLUME
control on the left side panel.
r TO HOST Connector & HOST SELECT Switch
This jack and selector switch (the switch is on the side
panel) allow direct connection to a personal computer without the
need for a separate MIDI interface. See “Connecting To a Per-
sonal Computer” on page 16 for details.
