About MIDI
MIDI (Musical Instrument Digital Interface) is a standard format for data transmission/
reception. It enables the transfer of performance data and commands between MIDI devices
and personal computers. Using MIDI, you can control a connected MIDI device from the
Clavinova, or control the Clavinova from a connected MIDI device or computer.

NOTE
The Clavinova's [MASTER VOL-

tings do not.
NOTE
If you connect the Clavinova to
a monaural device, use only the
AUX IN [L/L+R] jack.
NOTE
There are two types of USB
connectors: A and B. The USB
jack on the Clavinova accepts a
B-type connector. Connect the
A-type connector of the USB
cable to the USB port on your
computer. Connect the B-type
connector to the USB jack on
the Clavinova.
NOTE
MIDI performance data and
commands are transferred in
the form of numeric values.
NOTE
Since MIDI data that can be
transmitted or received varies
depending on the type of MIDI
device, check the "MIDI Imple-
mentation Chart" to find out
what MIDI data and commands
your devices can transmit or
receive. The Clavinova's MIDI
Implementation Chart appears
on page 65.
