becomes possible to transfer performance and
setting data between them for significantly
enhanced performance and production potential.
Transferring Performance Data To
and From Another Instrument
By connecting the PSR-E323/YPT-320 to other
MIDI devices or a computer, the performance
data of the instrument can be used on those other
MIDI devices or computer, and also the perfor-
mance data from other MIDI devices and com-
puter can be received and sounded with the PSR-
E323/YPT-320.
A Yamaha UX16 or similar USB-MIDI interface
(sold separately) will be necessary for MIDI
connection between the PSR-E323/YPT-320 and
a USB-equipped computer.
Make sure to purchase a Yamaha UX16 or a
