19. MIDIMIDI (Musical Instrument Digital Interface) is a world-standard communication interface that allows MIDI compatible musical instruments and equipment to share musical information and control one another. This makes it possible to create systemsof MIDI instruments and equipment that offer far greater versatility and control than is available with isolated instruments.The MIDI IN jack on the Piano can receive MIDI data from an external MIDI device that can be used to control your digital piano. The MIDI OUT jack transmits MIDI data generated by the Digital Piano (e. g. note and velocity data produced by playing the instrument). When connecting MIDI compatible instruments, always connect the MIDI OUT jack of one instrument to the MIDI IN of the other. Never connect the two MIDI jacks of the same instrument. This Digital Piano transmits note and velocity (touch response) information via the MIDI OUT connector whenever a note is played on the keyboard. If the MIDI OUT connector of the Piano is connected to the MIDI IN connector of a second instrument (synthesizer etc), that instrument will respond precisely to the notes played on the Piano. The result is that you can play two (or more) instruments at once, creating multi-instrumental sounds. The Digital Piano also transmits “program change” data when one of its voices is selected. Depending on how the receiving MIDI device is set up, the corresponding voice of that device will be automatically selected whenever a voice is selected on this Piano.The Piano is, of course, also capable of receiving MIDI data. A second MIDI keyboard connected to the MIDI IN jack of the piano can be used to remotely play and select voices as required on the Piano.20. USB jackThe USB jack of your piano may be connected to a computer. The required operation ®system would be Microsoft Windows XP or later only. By using an appropriate software you may edit the data from your piano with your computer.MIDI IN MIDI OUT MIDI KEYBOARDMIDI OUTMIDI INLocal instrument-11-Functions
