Basic MIDI Hookup
MIDI is an internationally-accepted protocol that allows musical-related data to be
conveyed from one device to another. See the MIDI Supplement in Appendix B if
you are not familiar with how MIDI works.
The MIDI connections provide three different functions. To trigger the QuadraSynth
from a MIDI control device (keyboard, drum pad, guitar or bass controller,
sequencer, etc.), connect the control deviceÕs MIDI OUT to the QuadraSynthÕs MIDI
IN.

The MIDI jack carries a replica (or echo) of the signal appearing at the QuadraSynthÕs
MIDI , allowing you to trigger other devices from the same controller which is
feeding the QuadraSynth. Simply connect the QuadraSynth MIDI THRU to the other
deviceÕs MIDI IN. Note that the MIDI THRU jack will not send messages from the
QuadraSynthÕs keyboard itself.

The MIDI sends MIDI data from the QuadraSynthÕs keyboard to other MIDI devices,
but can also send data (see the MIDI supplement) to a storage device such as the
Alesis DataDisk for later recall.
