Connecting the iS35 to a MIDI guitar
The iS35 includes some special functions that allow
you to connect a MIDI guitar and at the same time
send chords for the automatic accompaniment and
melody notes. In order to use this function you only
need a standard footswitch, such as Korg PS-1 or Korg
PS-2. The use of the Korg EC5 pedal keyboard is par-
ticularly recommended.
