What is MIDI?

MIDI, is the abbreviation of Musical Instrument Digital Interface. It is an interna-
tional standard that was created to connect and transfer data between electronic
musical instruments, computers and other devices.

What can you do with MIDI?

Thanks to MIDI, you can use the C-340 to control other instruments, use other
instruments to control the C-340, and use a sequencer to create complex musical
pieces.
When you use the C-340 keyboard or pedal, or select a sound, the notes, pedal acti-
vation and change in sound are transmitted to another instrument, or are recorded by
a sequencer.

Connections

Always connect the MIDI OUT connector of the instrument to the MIDI IN connec-
tor of another instrument. Never connect two connectors of the same instrument to
each other.
Connect the MIDI OUT connector of the transmitting (master) device to the MIDI
IN connector of the receiving (slave) device.
