 About MIDI
MIDI
 stands for Musical Instrument Digital Interface, and is 
a world-wide standard for exchanging various types of 
musical data between electronic musical instruments and 
computers. When MIDI cables are used to connect two or 
more MIDI devices, performance data can be exchanged 
between the devices, even if they were made by different 
manufacturers.
 Connecting MIDI devices/computers 
(MIDI connectors)
 Controlling an external MIDI tone generator 
from this instrument
When you wish to use the TRITON Le’s keyboard, control-
lers, and sequencer etc. to play an external MIDI tone gener-
ator, use a MIDI cable to connect this instrument’s MIDI 
OUT connector to the MIDI IN connector of the external 
MIDI tone generator.
 Controlling this instrument’s tone generator 
from an external MIDI device
When you wish to play or control the TRITON Le’s tone 
generator from an external MIDI keyboard or sequencer etc., 
use a MIDI cable to connect the MIDI OUT connector of the 
external MIDI device to the MIDI IN connector of this 
instrument.
 Controlling two or more external MIDI tone 
generators from this instrument
You can use the MIDI THRU jack to simultaneously control 
multiple MIDI devices. (This type of connection should be 
used to connect no more than three devices. If you wish to 
connect a larger number of MIDI devices, we recommend 
that you use a MIDI patch bay as shown in the second dia-
gram below.)
You can also use a MIDI patch bay to control multiple MIDI 
devices.
The “Convert Position” setting
On the TRITON Le, the parameters “Key Transpose,” 
“Velocity Curve” and “AfterT Curve” (GLOBAL 1.1–1a) 
allow you to transpose the pitch, adjust the velocity sensitiv-
ity, and adjust the after touch sensitivity (☞p.122).
The effect that these settings will have on the internal 
sequencer and on the MIDI data that is transmitted and 
received will depend on “Convert Position” (GLOBAL 2.1–
1a) setting (☞p.127). 
• When controlling an external MIDI tone generator from 
the TRITON Le, select Pre MIDI. The above-listed 
settings will affect the MIDI data that is transmitted. 
These settings will also affect the data that is recorded on 
the internal sequencer.
Incoming MIDI data will be handled with settings equiv-
alent to “Key Transpose” 0, “Velocity Curve” 4, and 
“AfterT Curve” 3.
• When controlling the TRITON Le’s tone generator from 
an external MIDI device, select PostMIDI. The above-
listed settings will affect the MIDI data that is received. 
These settings will also affect the data that is played back 
from the internal sequencer.
Outgoing MIDI data will be handled with settings equiv-
alent to “Key Transpose” 0, “Velocity Curve” 4, and 
“AfterT Curve” 3.
 Connecting an external MIDI sequencer or 
computer etc.
You can play the TRITON Le’s keyboard and record your 
performance on an external MIDI sequencer/computer 
(connected via a MIDI interface), and then play back the 
recorded performance to sound the TRITON Le’s tone gen-
erator (i.e., using this instrument as an input keyboard and 
MIDI tone generator). To do this, connect the MIDI OUT and 
MIDI IN connectors of the TRITON Le and your external 
MIDI sequencer/computer to each other.
Local Control On settings
When connections are made as shown above, turn on the 
Echo Back function of the external MIDI sequencer or com-
puter (so that data received at MIDI IN will be re-transmit-
ted from MIDI OUT), and turn off the TRITON Le’s Local 
Control
 setting (so that this instrument’s keyboard and tone
