Introduction to Use of the PR-50
Using V-LINK
V-LINK (
) is a function that makes it easy to exhibit video material during musical
performances. Connecting a V-LINK compatible MIDI device to the PR-50 and pressing the V-LINK
button on the MIDI device provides you with easy control of Presenter.

Connect using an optional UM-1 or other USB-compatible MIDI interface.
Connect the USB interface to the [USB] connector on the PR-50 using a USB cable.
The USB MIDI interfaces that can be used for this function are shown below.
S-MPU64, UM-1, UM-1S, UM-1X, UM-1SX, UM-1EX, UM-2, UM-2E, UM-2C, UM-4, UM-550,
UM-880, PCR-30, PCR-50, PCR-80, PCR-M30, PCR-M50, PCR-M80, PCR-M1, PC-300
The driver software included with these units is not used by the PR-50. In addition, when connecting
multiple interfaces and using interfaces with multiple ports, set all inputs to merge (mix) and all
outputs to parallel (whereby the same signals are output).
Make these connections only with the power to all devices turned off.
Presenter must be started up before the MIDI device’s V-LINK button is pressed.
When V-LINK is turned on, you can have the set up be made in accordance with the MIDI device
rather than the PR-50’s MIDI preferences, and functions appropriate for the MIDI device can be
assigned.
You cannot save changes to the PR-50’s MIDI settings made when V-LINK is active.
The main Presenter functions that can be controlled with MIDI are shown below.
• Selecting palettes
• Starting and stopping playback of clips
• Changing the retrigger point
• Changing the playback speed
• Changing the transition effect time
• Changing audio levels
• Controlling Time Trip
• Controlling output fades
