USB MIDI Driver
To operate the instrument from your computer via USB, you’ll need
to install the appropriate driver software.
The USB-MIDI driver is software that transfers MIDI data back and
forth between sequence software and the instrument via a USB cable.
The installation procedure differs depending on the operating system.
