About the Operating Modes

MIDI Visual Control Mode

What is MIDI Visual Control mode?

This is the mode that lets you control a video device that supports MIDI Visual Control (MVC).
You can control images on the Visual Control device that’s connected to the A-88 via a MIDI

cable. When you select MIDI Visual Control mode and play the keyboard of the A-88, images

will be controlled in synchronization with your performance.

What is MIDI Visual Control?

MIDI Visual Control is an internationally-used recommended practice that was added to

the MIDI specification so that visual expression could be linked with musical performance.

performance.
