5. MIDI connections to equipment &
computers
Connections to MIDI equipment
The keyboard, controllers, and sequencer etc. of the
NAUTILUS can be used to control an external MIDI tone
generator. Conversely, another MIDI keyboard or sequencer
can control the tone generator of NAUTILUS to produce
sound.
• Use MIDI cables to connect the MIDI connectors of
NAUTILUS with the MIDI connectors of your external
device.
For more information, see "Connecting MIDI devices &
computers" on page 929 of the PG.
Connections to a computer via MIDI
In conjunction with MIDI software on your computer, you
can use the NAUTILUS as a MIDI controller, and transmit
the NAUTILUS sequencer playback as MIDI data. You can
also play the NAUTILUS sounds from the computer. To do
so:
• Use a MIDI interface to connect the MIDI connectors of
NAUTILUS to the MIDI connectors of your computer.
For more information, see "Connecting MIDI devices &
computers" on page 929 of the PG.
Note: Some USB-MIDI interfaces may not be able to
transmit or receive the NAUTILUS's MIDI System
Exclusive messages.
6. Connecting to computers via USB
The NAUTILUS's USB B port lets you connect to a USB-
equipped Mac or Windows PC, for sending and receiving
MIDI and audio, and for connecting to the NAUTILUS
Editor.
For USB audio, the NAUTILUS uses the standard USB
audio driver that comes with Windows or macOS, so you
don't need to install a separate audio driver.
Installing the KORG USB-MIDI driver
The NAUTILUS cannot be used by multiple applications
simultaneously when you are using the standard USB-MIDI
driver included with the Windows operating system. If you
want to use the NAUTILUS with multiple applications
simultaneously, you must install the Korg USB-MIDI driver.
Even if the NAUTILUS will not be used with multiple
applications, we recommend installing the KORG USB-
MIDI driver, as it may offer improved operating stability.
Download the "Korg USB-MIDI driver" from the Korg
website, and install it as described in the accompanying
documentation.
Note: See the Korg website for the latest information on OS
support.

Note: When you first connect the NAUTILUS to your
computer, the USB-MIDI driver included with the operating
system will be installed automatically.
