receive power from a power supply, by switching the power setting on from the
rear panel. Also, you will want to use the MIDI out port that is labeled
“Keyboard.” A setup such as this may be used in a performance situation, or
when you wish to use the keyboard without the computer.

Using the Radium with Your Application Software

Once the Radium driver has been installed, you will need to configure your MIDI
application software to utilize the Radium. The manner in which this is done
varies between applications, so we can just cover the basics here.

Generally with both the Mac and PC, most MIDI applications have a MIDI port
configuration or settings dialog box, sometimes called “MIDI Devices” or “MIDI
Setup.”  It is within this dialog box that you will select or enable your MIDI input
and output devices.

If the Radium drivers are properly installed, then the port selection in this case
will be the KEYSTATION SERIES (or “Port 1” on the Mac) in the input column,
and then KEYSTATION SERIES (or Port 1) in the output column. KEYSTATION
SERIES will appear twice under the inputs and outputs. You must choose the
second selection for each time it is listed in order for OMS to properly process
the flow of MIDI information to and from the computer. Make sure that those
items are highlighted or checked. The output port that you select on a specific
MIDI track within your sequence will output MIDI information to the keyboard
or sound module that is attached to that port.

MIDI Functions

MIDI is the acronym for Musical Instrument Digital Interface, which makes all
digital musical instruments equipped with this standardized interface able to
exchange their MIDI data or “talk to each other.” 

To  explain how MIDI works on your instrument in more detail, the following
descriptions outline the MIDI functions of the Radium, which allow you to
connect the keyboard to other MIDI instruments and to your computer. The
versatile MIDI capability of the Radium will offer you tremendous power in a
MIDI environment.
