MIDI I/O

The DM2000 features four types of interface for transmitting and receiving MIDI data:
Standard MIDI ports
•TO HOST USB port
•TO HOST SERIAL port
•SLOT1 (for use with an optional mLAN I/O Card installed in Slot #1)
TO HOST SERIAL and TO HOST USB are multiport interfaces, with eight ports each.
When the DM2000 receives MIDI data via any of these interfaces, the MIDI indicator
appears on the display (see page 52).
If you are connecting a Windows computer to the TO HOST USB or TO HOST SERIAL
port, you must install and use the YAMAHA CBX Driver for Windows and the YAMAHA
USB Driver for Windows, which are included on the supplied CD-ROM.
If you plan to connect a Macintosh computer to the TO HOST USB port, you must install
and use the YAMAHA USB Driver for Macintosh, or the YAMAHA USB Driver for MacOS
X. If you are using MacOS 8.6–9.2.2, you must install OMS 2.3.3 in the Macintosh.
If you plan to connect a Macintosh computer running MacOS 8.6–9.2.2 to the TO HOST
SERIAL port on the DM2000, you must install OMS 2.3.3 in the Macintosh.
