2) USB MIDI Information
In order to exchange MIDI data between the digital piano and a computer via USB connection, USB-MIDI driver
software must be installed on the computer to allow proper operations. Please read the following instructions
carefully as a different USB-MIDI driver may be necessary depending on the computer OS.
Windows XP / Me
The standard USB-MIDI driver installed on Windows will be used.
This USB-MIDI driver will be automatically installed when the unit is connected to the computer.
To establish MIDI communications with the unit by using an application, select “USB audio device” to define the
CP as the MIDI device.
Windows 7 / Vista / 2000 / 98SE
You will need to install the specified, special USB-MIDI driver.
Please visit the KAWAI web site at the address below and download the USB MIDI driver installation program.

Read the instruction manual thoroughly before connecting the unit to the computer, and make sure to install the
driver. If you connect the unit to the computer without installing the driver, the USB MIDI driver may not operate
correctly. If this occurs, use the driver update function of the OS to install the appropriate USB MIDI driver, or
delete the driver by using the driver delete function, and then reinstalling the driver again.
To establish MIDI communications with the unit by using an application, select “KAWAI USB MIDI IN” and “KAWAI
USB MIDI OUT” to define the unit as a MIDI device.
Mac OS X
When the CP is used with Mac OS X, the instrument will be recognized as a MIDI device automatically; therefore,
no special driver is needed.
To establish MIDI communications with the unit by using an application, select “USB-MIDI” to define the unit as
a MIDI device.
Macintosh OS9 or earlier
The CP’s USB MIDI connector does not support Macintosh OS9 or earlier. Please establish a MIDI connection by
using a commercially available MIDI interface.
