1. Functions
1.1 MIDI-SETUP
There are two types of serial connector: the MIDI connec-
tors and the TO HOST. They have the same functionality,
and you can select which type to use as appropriate for the
connection destination. Both types use the MIDI format for
communication.
In the case of the TO HOST connector, the transmission
method must be selected appropriate for the other device.
The available methods are listed below.
Regardless of which method is selected, MTC is transmitted
from the dedicated MTC OUT connector.
You can select either THRU or OUT as the function of the
MIDI THRU/OUT connector. If THRU is selected, messages
received at the MIDI IN connector will be retransmitted
without change from the MIDI OUT/THRU connector.
