Start-up Guide
Connecting an Apple Macintosh Computer
Connect the modem port or printer port of the Apple Macintosh computer to the TO HOST
connector of the X5DR using a computer interface cable (optional AG-002).
To transmit data (such as Program data) from the TO HOST connector of the X5DR to the
computer, set 2B EXT OUT SEL of Global mode to PCIF. (See page 14.)
•
This connection might not be used, depending on the model of the computer or the type of
sequencer software.
•
If your sequencer software has a clock setting, set the clock to 1MHz.
Set 0D PC I/F CLK of the Global mode to “31.25kBPS.” (See page 14.)
Installing the Korg MIDI Driver allows the X5DR to output data from its internal tone generator
separately from MIDI OUT data. This makes it possible to use the X5DR as a MIDI interface for
other connected devices. Refer to page 177 for installation information.
