MIDI, an abbreviation for Musical Instrument Digital Interface, is an international standard created to enable exchange 

of performance data among devices. Any MIDI-compatible device can be connected simply with a MIDI cable, allowing 

transfer of performance data and control of device operations and settings.

MIDI messages (data handled with MIDI). On the V-8, the MIDI OUT and MIDI THRU are combined in one connector. 

 

MIDI messages from other MIDI devices are received here.

 

MIDI messages from the V-8 are transmitted from here. 

 

MIDI messages received at the MIDI IN connector are output as is.

MIDI allows you to transmit multiple streams of data to connected MIDI devices via a single MIDI cable. This is made 

possible by the concept of MIDI channels. You can think of MIDI channels as being somewhat similar in function to 

the channels on a television. By changing the channel of a TV set, you can view a variety of programs being 

transmitted by different broadcast stations. This is because data is received only from the transmitter whose channel 

is selected on the receiver.

In the same way, a MIDI device whose receive channel is set to “1” will receive only the data being transmitted by 

another MIDI device whose transmit channel is also set to “1.”

The use of MIDI makes it possible to communicate with a broad range of electronic musical instruments. However, 

this does not mean that all MIDI messages can be exchanged among all devices. Only those MIDI messages that both 

of the communicating devices are designed to understand can be exchanged. The owner’s manual that comes with a 

Such charts allow you to easily find out which MIDI messages that device can transmit and receive. When using MIDI 

devices, compare the charts for the devices that will be communicating to check which MIDI messages are compatible.
