Using the Keyboard to Control
Images ([V-LINK] Button)

What is V-LINK?

V-LINK ( ) is a function that allows music and images to
be performed together. By using MIDI to connect two or more V-LINK
compatible devices, you can easily enjoy performing a wide range of
visual effects that are linked to the expressive elements of a music
performance.
For example if you use the JUNO-Di in conjunction with Edirol P-10, you'll
be able to do the following things.
• Use the JUNO-Di's keyboard (the far-left octave) to switch images.
• Use the JUNO-Di's pitch bend lever to control the image playback
speed.
• You can use the JUNO-Di's knobs to control the brightness and hue of
the image.

Connection Example

As an example, we will use a setup in which the JUNO-Di is connected to
the EDIROL P-10. Use a MIDI cable to connect the JUNO-Di's MIDI OUT
connector to the MIDI IN connector of the EDIROL P-10.
Before connecting this unit to other devices, turn off the power
to all units. This will help prevent malfunctions and/or damage
to speakers or other devices.
