MIDI Control

MIDI, the 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 "systems" of MIDI instruments and equipment that offer far greater versatility and control than is available with isolated instruments.

Most MIDI keyboards(including your instrument, of course) transmit note and velocity (touch response) information via the MIDI OUT connector when ever a note is played on the keyboard. If the MIDI OUT connector is connected to the MIDI IN connector of a second keyboard (synthesizer, etc.) Or a tone generator will respond precisely to notes played on the original transmitting keyboard. The result is that you can effectively play two instruments at once, providing thick multi-instrument sounds. This instrument also transmit "program change" data when one of its voices is selected. Depending on how the receiving device is set up, the corresponding voice will be automatically selected on the receiving keyboard or tone generator whenever a voice is selected on your instrument.

Your instrument is capable of receiving the same MIDI data, so a second MIDI keyboard connected to your instrument MIDI IN connector can be used to remotely play yours and select voices as required.
