About MIDI
MIDI (Musical Instrument Digital Interface) is a standard format for data transmis-
sion/reception. It enables the transfer of performance data and commands between
MIDI devices and personal computers. Using MIDI, you can control a connected MIDI
device from the P-65, or control the P-65 from a connected MIDI device or computer.
MIDI’s Capability
MIDI functions enable you to transfer performance data between MIDI
devices.
CAUTION
Before connecting the instrument to other electronic components, turn off the power of all the
components.

Since MIDI data that can be
transmitted or received varies
depending on the type of MIDI
device, check the “MIDI Imple-
mentation Chart” to find out what
MIDI data and commands your
devices can transmit or receive.
The P-65’s MIDI Implementation
