Connecting to a Personal Computer
Although the QY70 can be connected to a personal computer via the
MIDI IN/OUT connectors and a MIDI interface, the TO HOST connector
and selector switch allow direct connection to Apple Macintosh, IBM-PC/
AT, or NEC PC-9801/9821 series personal computers for sequencing and
other music applications without the need for a separate MIDI interface.
■
IMPORTANT!
•
If the QY70 is to be connected to a computer via the TO HOST connector and a
MIDI controller via the MIDI IN connector, the “echo back”(or “MIDI Thru” etc)
function of the music software or sequencer you are using must be turned “on” so
that the MIDI note data from the controller is returned to the QY70 and any
subsequent devices connected to the QY70 MIDI OUT connector.
