Connections
Using a MIDI interface
Using the computer’s MIDI interface
Using an external MIDI interface
n Make sure to use the appropriate MIDI interface for your
computer.
n If you are using a computer that has a USB interface,
make sure to connect the computer and the S90 by USB.
(The data transfer rate is faster than MIDI and you’ll
have access to multiple MIDI ports.)
Local On/Off - When Connected to a
Computer (Utility [F5] [SF2])
When connecting the S90 to a computer, the
keyboard performance data is generally sent to the
computer, and then returned from the computer to
play the tone generator or sound source. If the Local
Control is set to “on,” a “double” sound may result,
since the tone generator is receiving performance
data from both the keyboard directly and the
computer. Use the setting suggestions below as a
guideline; specific instructions may differ depending
on your computer and the software used.
When MIDI “Echo” is enabled on the software/
computer, set the S90 Local Control to “off.”
n When transmitting or receiving System Exclusive
data (such as with the Bulk Dump function), use
the setting example below, making sure that MIDI
“Echo” on the computer software is set to “off.”
When MIDI “Echo” is disabled on the software/
computer, set the S90 Local Control to “on.”
n Although not indicated in the illustration above,
the S90 actually receives and responds to MIDI
data from the computer application (sequencer),
regardless of the Local Sw setting on the S90.
* MIDI “Echo” is a function on sequencers that takes
any data received via the MIDI IN and “echoes” it
(or sends it as is) through the MIDI OUT. In some
software, this function is also called “MIDI Thru.”
n Refer to the owner’s manual of your particular
software for specific instructions.
Connecting Various
Controllers
The S90 features several controller jacks on the rear
panel — letting you independently control various
aspects of the sound and a variety of functions with
optional controllers (page 53).
