Basic MIDI Port Hookup
To use the Forte as a MIDI controller for another sound module, use a MIDI cable to connect
the MIDI port marked "OUT" to the MIDI input port of the module that you want to control.
To control the Forte using another MIDI controller, use a MIDI cable to connect the MIDI
port marked "IN" to the MIDI output port of the controller that you will be using.
Using Forte MIDI Out
For other MIDI connection scenarios, please refer to the Forte User Manual.
