The connection in Step 4 is not required when producing sounds only with the sound generator section of the XV-88, such as when playing back song data. This connection does become necessary when performance data from the XV-88’s keyboard controller section is to be recorded with sequencer software. However, in this case you must also turn the XV-88’s Local switch to OFF, and the Thru function of your software to ON (p. 211).
