This section describes an example for using the MIDI capability of the ST-224.
Samples assigned to the pads of the ST-224 can be played from external MIDI equipment, or songs stored in
the ST- 224 can be synchronized by a MIDI sequencer or rhythm machine.
To use the MIDI capability, connect the MIDI OUT jack of the external equipment to the [MIDI IN] jack
on the ST- 224, using a MIDI cable.
Samples assigned to pads in the ST-224 (and an input source controlled by the [SOURCE] pad) can be
played by an external MIDI sequencer or MIDI controller.
