Connection to a Computer
Connecting to a Computer
The keyboard’s USB port makes it quick and simple to connect
to a computer. After installing the USB driver onto your
computer from the CD-ROM that comes with the keyboard,
you will be able to use commercially available MIDI software
on your computer to exchange data between the keyboard
and your computer.
Using the USB port
Note that you need to purchase a commercially available USB
cable to connect the keyboard to a computer using the USB
port. Once you establish a USB connection between the
keyboard and a computer, you can exchange data between
them.
To connect to a computer using the
USB port
1On the computer to which you plan to connect,
install the USB driver that comes on the CD-ROM
that comes bundled with the keyboard.
•For information about installing the driver, navigate
to one of the language directories located in the root
directory of the bundled CD-ROM, and read the
contents of the “readme.txt” file.

General MIDI Tone
The General MIDI standard defines the tone numbering
sequence, the drum sound numbering sequence, the number
of MIDI channels that can be used, and other general factors
that determine the sound source configuration. Because of
this, musical data produced on a General MIDI sound source
can be played back using similar tones and identical nuances
as the original, even when played on another manufacturers
sound source.
This keyboard conforms with General MIDI standards, so it
can be connected to a computer and used to play back General
MIDI data that has been purchased, downloaded from the
Internet, or obtained from any other source.

Messages
The MIDI messages explained here can be sent and received
when the keyboard is connected to a computer by USB
connection. Note, however, that you need to install the USB
driver from the CD-ROM that comes with the keyboard on
your computer to send and receive these MIDI messages.
There is a wide variety of messages defined under the MIDI
standard, and this section details the particular messages that
can be sent and received by this keyboard. An asterisk is used
to mark messages that affect the entire keyboard. Messages
without an asterisk are those that affect only a particular
channel.
NOTE ON/OFF
This message sends data when a key is pressed (NOTE ON)
or released (NOTE OFF).
A NOTE ON/OFF message include a note number (to indicate
