20 EZ-AG
Connecting To MIDI Devices
The EZ-AG features MIDI IN and OUT connectors that can be used to connect to other MIDI
devices for expanded musical capabilities. It is also possible to load additional songs down-
loaded from the internet (URL provided below) into the EZ-AG via these connectors.
MIDI (Musical Instrument Digital Interface) is an international standard system that allows electronic musical
instruments and related devices to communicate with and control one another. By connecting MIDI-compatible
devices via standard MIDI cables, it becomes possible to transfer a variety of performance and setup data
between devices for enhanced musical capabilities.
● MIDI IN Connector
Receives MIDI data from external MIDI devices.
● MIDI OUT Connector
Transmits MIDI data to external MIDI devices.
Using the EZ-AG’s MIDI capabilities you can, for example, transfer performance data between two EZ-AGs, or
between an EZ-AG and a MIDI-equipped personal computer to load songs into the EZ-AG.
Song data cannot be transmitted by the EZ-AG.
●Performance data transferred between two EZ-AGs.
●Song data downloaded from the internet can be loaded into the EZ-AG
via computer.
What is MIDI?
• MIDI cables are sold separately
and are available from most
musical instrument stores that
handle electronic music gear.
• Excessively long MIDI cables can
cause data errors. Use MIDI
cables that are no longer than 15
meters.
• Make sure the power to exter-
nal devices is turned off when
connecting the EZ-AG. Then,
when the required connections
have been made, turn on the
external device first and then
the EZ-AG.
Some Example MIDI Applications
• Song data will not be transmitted
via the instrument’s MIDI OUT
connector.
