• Connection by [MIDI] terminals

There are two ways to connect the instrument via

MIDI to a computer. If you have a MIDI interface built

into your computer, connect the MIDI OUT terminal

of the computer interface to the [MIDI IN] terminal of

the instrument, and connect the [MIDI OUT] terminal

of the instrument to the MIDI IN terminal of the inter-

face.

The second connection possibility involves a sepa-

rate, external MIDI interface connected to the com-

puter via a USB port or a serial port (modem or

printer terminal). Using standard MIDI cables, con-

nect the MIDI OUT terminal of the external interface

to the [MIDI IN] terminal of the instrument, and con-

nect the [MIDI OUT] terminal of the instrument to the

MIDI IN terminal of the interface.

Make sure to use the appropriate MIDI interface for your com-

puter.

Connecting to a USB-type LAN Adaptor

and USB Storage Device

(

via the [USB TO DEVICE] terminal)

There are two ways of using the [USB TO DEVICE] ter-

minal.

■

By connecting the USB-type LAN adaptor, you can

directly access special Internet websites for down-

loading music data (page 171).

■

By connecting the instrument to a USB storage

device with a standard USB cable, you can save data

you’ve created to the connected device, as well as

read data from the connected device.

About the [USB TO HOST] and [USB TO DEVICE] terminals

There are two different types of USB terminals on the instrument:

[USB TO HOST] and [USB TO DEVICE]. Take care not to confuse

the two terminals and the corresponding cable connectors.

Be careful to connect the proper plug in the proper direction.

Explanations on the [USB TO HOST] terminal can be found in the

previous section.

Using USB Storage Devices

This type is used to connect the instrument to a USB

storage device, and allows you to save data you’ve cre-

ated to the connected device, as well as read data from

the connected device. The following description gener-

ally explains about how to connect and use them.

Before using a USB storage device, be sure to read

“Handling the USB Storage Device (USB Flash Mem-

ory/Floppy Disk, etc)” on page 23.

Connect the USB storage device to the [USB TO

DEVICE] terminal with a standard USB cable.

After that, exit once from the selection display

then return to the display (or press the Tab

switch buttons [

√
