Installing the Korg USB MIDI Driver

Connecting Pa3XLe to a personal computer

Installing the Korg USB MIDI Driver
The USB Device port can be used to transfer MIDI data between
the Pa3XLe and a personal computer (this is called the MIDI
Over USB function). This is useful when your computer is not
fitted with a MIDI interface.
USB can be used in parallel with the MIDI ports. For example,
you can connect your Pa3XLe to a sequencer running on your
computer, and at the same time control another MIDI instru-
ment connected to the MIDI ports of Pa3XLe.
Connecting Pa3XLe this ways makes it, at the same time, a MIDI
input device, a controller, and a sound generator.
Connecting Pa3XLe to a personal computer
Please install the KORG USB-MIDI Driver, before connecting
Pa3XLe to a personal computer. Be sure your personal computer
meets the requirement shown on "KORG USB-MIDI Driver sys-
tem requirements" below.
