MAKING THE CONNECTIONS
MIDI
MIDI (Musical Instrument Digital Interface) is a world-standard digital communication
interface/language that allows multiple electronic instruments, computers, and other
related devices to communicate with each other within a connection.
The MIDI IN port receives MIDI data from an external MIDI device. The MIDI OUT port
transmits MIDI data to an external MIDI device. The instruments communicate with
each other by sending 'messages' or MIDI data. The sending instrument usually assigns
the data to one of the sixteen MIDI channels, then transmits it over the MIDI cable. The
cable itself, however, is not divided up into sixteen channels, just as with a television set
that receives programs on different channels, it is up to the receiving instrument to
'tune into' the proper MIDI channel. If the sending and receiving channels on the
respective instruments do not match, the receiving instrument may not understand or
respond to the one sending.

No information of auto-style, pre-re-corded songs, sustain and transpose could be sent

For two MIDI instruments to communicate, they must be connected by MIDI cables. In a
basic example, the MIDI OUT terminals of this keyboard could be connected to the MIDI OUT
and terminals of a sequencer, allowing you to record and play back performance data from
this keyboard.
