ENGLISH Connecting MIDI Instruments Your digital piano features MIDI connectors. Using the MIDI functions enables you to access a variety of musical genres. About MIDI MIDI (Musical Instrument Digital Interface) is a global format standard for performance data transmission and reception between electronic musical instruments. Connecting musical instruments that support MIDI via MIDI cables enables you to transfer performance and setting data between multiple musical instruments. Using MIDI, you can also achieve more advanced performances than using just a single musical instrument. MIDI OUT IN Since MIDI data that can be transmitted or received varies depending on the type of MIDI devices. Please check the "MIDI Implementation Chart" on the web (please refer to "Data List" on page 6) to find out what MIDI data and commands your devices can transmit or receive. You need a dedicated MIDI cable (optional) to make a MIDI connection. You can purchase MIDI cables at musical instrument stores.
