ADDITIONAL DEVICES
If you want to use additional keyboards or ex-
panders, connect the equipment as described
below:

IN.
• Computer's MIDI OUT connected to the expand-
er's MIDI IN.
• WK3 MIDI IN connected to the expander's MIDI

In this setup, WK3 keyboard data is sent via the
WK3 MIDI OUT and is received by the compu-
ter's MIDI IN port. When you play back a se-
quence, MIDI data from the computer is sent via
MIDI OUT, and is received by the expander's MIDI
IN. This data then passes on from the expand-
er's MIDI THRU to the WK3 MIDI IN.
If the expander has no MIDI THRU, connect the
computer's MIDI OUT to the WK3 MIDI IN, and
the WK3 MIDI THRU to the expander's MIDI IN.
THE COMPUTER PORT
You can use the COMPUTER port via a single
serial cable instead of the MIDI IN and MIDI OUT
ports. The COMPUTER port disables the MIDI
ports if connected.
Apple Macintosh
The Macintosh (or compatible) must communi-
cate at the velocity of 1 MHz. Consult the manual
of the sequencer for relevant information.
Use the standard Macintosh serial cable. Con-
nect one end of the cable to the WK3 and the
other to the MODEM port of the Macintosh.
Set the COMPUTER parameter in «Edit General»
to MAC.
IBM PC
The IBM-PC (or compatible) can communicate
at the velocity of 31250 baud (PC1) or 38400
baud (PC2).
Use the optional Generalmusic serial cable. In-
sert the small connector (DB9) to the WK3 COM-
PUTER port and the larger connector (DP25) to
the RS-232 port of the computer.
Set the COMPUTER parameter in «Edit General»
to PC1 or PC2 as required.
