● AUX IN jack (stereo mini phone jack)
The audio output from a MP3 player or CD player connected to
the AUX IN jack can be mixed with the sound of the DTXPRESS
IV and transmitted via the OUTPUT jacks or PHONES jack. This
jack can be used when you want to play along with your favorite
songs.
* Use the volume control on the external device (MP3 player,
etc.) to adjust the volume balance.
● MIDI OUT jack
The MIDI functions on the DTXPRESS IV lets you play voices
on an external tone generator with the pads of the DTXPRESS
IV, or synchronize the DTXPRESS IV's song or click playback
with the playback of an external sequencer.
About MIDI
MIDI (Musical Instrument Digital Interface) is a worldwide standard
that enables you to connect instruments and computers—of different
manufacturers and different types—and transmit performance and
other data among them.
* Also, use a MIDI cable that is not more than 15 meters in
length. Using a longer cable may result in irregular operation
and other problems.
