Selecting the Type of USB Driver

When using the GI-20 when it is connected to a computer,

you can select from two types of drivers.

*Be sure to set the GI-20’s driver so that it matches the driver used by the computer. In some cases, the driver may not function properly.

SP: VENDER SPECIFIC:

The special driver on the CD-ROM in- cluded with the GI-20 is used, provid- ing faster, more stable MIDI transmission. Normally, this is what you should use.

GE: GENERIC:

Use this setting when using the stan- dard MIDI driver that came with your OS.

*With the factory settings, USB DRIVER is set to “VENDER SPECIFIC.”

1.Turn off the power to the GI-20.

2.Hold down [WRITE] and turn on the power.

3.Press [SELECT], causing only the leftmost indicator of the display to light up.

4.Press [PATCH/VALUE] to select “SP” or “GE.”
