Using your Silent Series piano as a MIDI keyboard — MIDI OUT

You can use MIDI to send performance data to a sequencer or appropriately configured personal computer. You can also use MIDI to play a synthesizer or tone generator (see the illustration on page 47).

NOTE:

Connecting a sequencer or personal com- puter instead of a synthesizer makes it pos- sible to store your performance as MIDI data for subsequent playback.

Connect one end of a MIDI cable to the MIDI OUT terminal at the back of the control box, and the other end to the MIDI IN of the other instrument.

On the MIDI instrument, set the Receive Channel to 1, or set OMNI ON (refer to the instructions for the other instrument).

Start playing the piano. When you play a note, the MIDI data for that note will be received by the other instrument, which will play the note.

The Silent Series piano transmits and receives note on and off, note on and off velocity, and key aftertouch information. Pedal information is transmitted as MIDI Control Change messages.
