KAWAI MP

Update

 

 

This is an Update for the Kawai MP8. 
How to do it: 

 

1. Updating 

You need a PC or MAC with a MIDI sequencer software and a  
MIDI interface or USB. Make sure that MIDI data can be send to  
the correct MIDI OUTPUT. In many software programs you must  

first set the right MIDI Output first. If you don’t know how to do  
it, please ask the maker of your software. You may also use the  
Windows MediaPlayer. Before using, please set the default MIDI  
device in the Control Panel to the proper MIDI Out, because  
MediaPlayer uses this default driver for playback. (Usually the  

Wavetable GS driver is default.) Via USB, please select the  
Windows driver “USB-Audio-Device”. Open the first MIDI file  
(mp

.mid) with this software and set the track MIDI  

channel to 1. Make sure that your software has no activated  
SYS-EX filters. When using MediaPlayer no setting are needed. 
(Hint: Cubase Version SX 1 or higher has problems in sending  

SYS-EX data and therefore cannot be used! Cubase VST32 etc.  
works.) 
 

Step 1: 

Decide to use USB or MIDI IN jack for the update. 

 
Via MIDI IN: 
Hold the buttons 6, 7 and 8 in the lower row and turn  
power on. 
The display shows:
