We will assume that a MIDI interface along with software to play MIDI fi les is correctly installed in your PC. Please refer to the
operating instructions of these devices to properly confi gure the PC to transmit standard MIDI fi les via the MIDI OUT socket.
With this confi guration, selecting and playing a standard MIDI fi le from the player
software installed in your computer the expander will play the sequence.
REMEMBER! The MIDI interface does not transmit AUDIO signals, just control
data only. You must always connect the audio output of the MIDI instrument
(such as the gm-x) you are controlling, to an external speaker system
If your computer is equipped with a multimedia speaker system, it's possible to connect the gm-x to directly the
computer speaker in the following way:
MULTIMEDIA SPEAKER MULTIMEDIA SPEAKER
Using this type of connection it's possible to listen to the gm-x sounds from the computer speakers, meanwhile the
overall instrument level will be set from the Windows
ing System you might have installed in your PC.
As previously noted, the only difference in MIDI or USB is only the type of connections, the data transfer rate and the
features are the same in both cases.
For instruction on this feature, please refer to the CD ROM included with the expander.
