What You Can Do With MIDI

By connecting multiple MIDI devices

(musical instruments and/or computer) with a cable, the MIDI data

can be transmitted and received. For example, if you record your keyboard performance as a MIDI data, the
recorded data can be transmitted to another instrument (or computer) and played back on it. You can even edit
that data on the computer. You can also buy MIDI data (computer files) of your favorite songs from Internet
websites (such as yamahamusicsoft.com) and listen to the data by playing it back on your instrument or com-
puter.
Generally, MIDI cable is used for connecting an instrument to another instrument, and USB cable is used for
connecting instruments to a computer. For details, refer to the owner’s manual of your instrument.

MIDI data has the following advantages over audio data:

• The data size is much smaller than audio data such as mp3, wav, etc.

• The data can be effectively and easily edited.

(Example 1)

Using one keyboard to control a second, connected keyboard

(Example 2)

Recording your keyboard performance to computer and editing the data

Edited data can be played back on the keyboard again.

Proper sequencer software must be installed to the computer in order to edit MIDI data.

(Example 3)

Playing back MIDI data which you have bought from an Internet website on
your instrument

The MIDI data can be loaded to your instrument via USB flash memory.

In order to connect USB flash memory, your instrument must have a USB TO DEVICE terminal.
