About MIDI

MIDI is an acronym that stands for Musical Instrument Digital Interface, which allows electronic musical instruments to
communicate with each other, by sending and receiving compatible Note, Control Change, Program Change and
various other types of MIDI data, or messages. This synthesizer can control other MIDI devices by transmitting note
related data and various types of controller data. It can also be controlled by incoming MIDI messages which
automatically determine the tone generator mode, select MIDI channels, voices and effects, change parameter values,
and of course play the voices specified for the various Parts. For detailed information of the MIDI messages that can be
handled by the MOX6/MOX8, see the "Data List" PDF document. For details on MIDI, see the "Synthesizer Parameter
Manual" PDF document. This section explains only information specific to the MOX6/MOX8.
