Connecting an external MIDI sequencer or computer etc.
If you want to record your performance on the
R3
’s keyboard into your external
MIDI sequencer/computer (via a MIDI interface), or use the
R3
as a combination of
controller keyboard and MIDI sound module, or use the Editor/Librarian software
included with the
R3
, then you’ll need to connect the
R3
’s MIDI OUT and MIDI IN
connectors to the MIDI IN and MIDI OUT connectors respectively of your external
MIDI sequencer or computer.
Some USB-MIDI interface devices may not be able to transmit/receive the
R3

MIDI exclusive messages.

Connecting the
R3
to your computer via USB
As an alternate way of connecting the
R3
to your computer in the situations de-
scribed above, you can use a USB cable if your computer has a USB connector. Since
a USB connection sends the data faster than when using MIDI cables and a MIDI
interface, we recommend a USB connection if you’re going to be using the PC editor
software.
For details on the included software, refer to the owner’s manual for the soft-
ware provided on the CD-ROM.
If either the MIDI connection or the USB connection does not work, you should
also check the “Routing” setting (
☞
p.68) in the 42. MIDI page.
