MIDI
The term MIDI is an acronym for Musical Instrument Digital Interface, an international standard for connecting synthesizers, sequencers (MIDI recorders) and other electronic instruments so that they can exchange performance data.
The CL25 is equipped with two MIDI jacks for exchanging data: MIDI IN and MIDI OUT. Each uses a special cable with a DIN connector.
MIDI IN : For receiving note, program change and other data.
MIDI OUT : For sending note, program change and other data.
MIDI EXAMPLES
(1) Connection to another MIDI compatible keyboard or sound generator module
When connected as shown in the illustration, data on how the digital piano is played (which keys are struck) can be sent to another MIDI instrument. Plus, the sound from the CL25 can be layered over the sound of the other instrument.
MIDI OUT
MIDI IN
(2) Connection to an external sequencer
When connected as shown in the illustration, you can record songs played on the CL25 with a MIDI recorder, and use the CL25 ’s tones (such as piano, harpsichord and vibraphone, etc.) controlled by the CL25’s
