Connections
44 N3X Owner’s Manual
MIDI (Musical Instrument Digital Interface) is a global format standard for
performance data transmission and reception between electronic musical
instruments. Connecting musical instruments that support MIDI via MIDI
cables enables you to transfer performance and setting data between multiple
musical instruments. Using MIDI, you can also achieve more advanced per-
formances than using just a single musical instrument.
Example for MIDI connection
Example 1:
The connection below allows you to play the sounds of an external MIDI tone generator from the keyboard of this
instrument.
Set the MIDI Receive Channel of the external MIDI tone generator to “1,” since the MIDI Transmit Channel of this
instrument is set to “1.
Example 2:
The connection below allows you to play the sounds of this instrument by playing back a Song on an external
sequencer.
The MIDI Receive Channels of this instrument can only be set to 1 and 2. This is why the data for the piano part
should be assigned to MIDI Channels 1 and 2 of the Song.
Connecting External MIDI Devices (MIDI [IN] [OUT] connectors)
NOTE
You need a dedicated MIDI cable to make a
MIDI connection.
NOTE
The handled MIDI messages differ depend-
ing on the MIDI instrument. In other words,
some MIDI messages transmitted from this
instrument may not be recognized on a dif-
ferent MIDI instrument. For details, you
should check the MIDI Implementation
Chart of each MIDI instrument. The MIDI
Implementation Chart of this instrument is
described in the “MIDI Reference” on the
website (page 9).
NOTE
During Song playback, data of only MIDI
channels 3–16 will be output via MIDI.
NOTE
Voice Demo Song and Preset Song data are
not transmitted via MIDI.
