MIDI ROUTING
 
Set the VB-99’s control signal path.
The VB-99 features three types of connectors for data input and 
output: the MIDI connectors (IN/OUT), a USB connector, and the 
RRC2 IN connector. When connecting the VB-99 to devices other 
than the FC-300, you need to consider the routing of the control 
signals.
Check the display as you set the necessary connections.
You can make the settings for MIDI IN and OUT on Page 2, for the 
USB connector on Page 3, and for the RRC2 IN connector on Page 4.
