MIDI Functions 11 MIDI Functions The RY20 is a fully functional MIDI instrument. It can send or receive MIDI data through its MIDI IN and OUT connectors. You can play its voices from another instrument or you can use it to control other MIDI devices, such as keyboards or tone generators. You can connect your RY20 to a MIDI data storage device, such as the Yamaha MDF2 MIDI Data Filer, to perform back-ups of your valuable pattern, song and drum pad data. s MIDI Sync This mode determines whether the RY20 timing is synchronized by its own internal clock or by an external MIDI clock.
