2.2 – MIDI E
The KMI MIDI Expander is an optional accessory that allows K-Mix (and other KMI products) to connect to
external MIDI hardware via MIDI cables.
(1) MIDI I
N
MIDI input to the Expander. Incoming MIDI will be passed through the K-Mix and up the USB connection to
a connected computer or tablet (if present) — similar to a MIDI interface. MIDI sent into the Expander's input
can also be used to control the K-Mix Mix bank parameters, and change the currently selected preset.
(2) MIDI O
UT
MIDI output from the Expander. MIDI from the K-Mix (and a connected computer) can be sent out of this to
external MIDI hardware.
(3) I

Flashes when MIDI is sent out of the MIDI Out port.
