Quick Guide Connecting external MIDI instruments With a standard MIDI cable (available separately), you can connect an external MIDI instrument, and control it from the MOXF6/MOXF8. Likewise, you can use an external MIDI device (such as a keyboard or sequencer) to control the sounds on the MOXF6/MOXF8. Below are several different MIDI connection examples; use the one most similar to your intended setup. NOTE Any one of these interfaces can be used for MIDI data transmission/reception: the MIDI connectors, or the USB [TO HOST] connector. However, they cannot be used at the same time. Select which connector is to be used for MIDI data transfer in the "MIDI IN/OUT" parameter of the [UTILTITY]  [F6] MIDI  [SF4] OTHER display. As you work through the explanations in this chapter, set "MIDI IN/OUT" to "MIDI" since MIDI is used as the example connection here.
