MIDI Input / Output
5 pin DIN socket.
Connect to either a MIDI
interface or directly to MIDI
compatible equipment using a
standard 5 pin DIN (MIDI) lead.
The MIDI output socket data
duplicates what is sent via the USB
connection to the PC, and to the
gameport.
MIDI in can be used to remotely
control the status of all switches
that have associated LED light rings
(with the exception of the BPM,
LFO and Stop/Start.
You can connect the MIDI OUT of
one Xone:4D to the MIDI IN of
another.
USB Connector
USB (Universal Serial Bus) V2.0 is
an external peripheral interface
standard for data transmission.
Xone:4D USB works at 480Mbps
and provides up to 20
uncompressed audio channels.
The USB connection is used to
send/receive audio and MIDI data
between the Xone:4D and the
connected computer.
Use a standard USB type A to B
lead to connect to your computer.
This is supplied with the Xone:4D.
Gameport Connector
The gameport connector (15pin D-type)
lets you add additional controllers such as
an analogue joystick, or a third MIDI
output socket using a standard gameport
to MIDI adapter.
Note:
this port has no MIDI input
connection.
This interface will convert the movement
of a connected joystick into MIDI CC and
Note information; it cannot be used to
control PC games, so don’t try it with
your latest flight sim…..
It is also possible to build a custom
interface using general purpose switches
and potentiometers. We recommend 10k
or 20k ohm linear law pots. A simple
schematic is shown here.

Footswitch Connector
This 1/4” TRS socket is used to connect a
footswitch or expression pedal as an
additional MIDI controller. Most standard
foot pedals should be satisfactory, for
example, the Roland EV-5.
