MIDI IN
The CBX-D5 receives MIDI control data from the computer via this connection. To
prevent the CBX-D5’s control data being delayed by other MIDI devices, the CBX-D5
should be the first device connected to your computer. Other MIDI devices should then be
connected to the CBX-D5’s MIDI THRU connection.

If your computer’s MIDI interface has two or three MIDI outputs, dedicate one for use

A
MIDI OUT
When the CBX-D5 is being used as a MIDI interface, that is, a direct connection to a
computer via the To Host connection, MIDI data from the computer is output to other
MIDI devices from this connection. Also used for MIDI bulk dump.

MIDI devices from this connection. Also used for MIDI bulk dump.
B
MIDI THRU
MIDI data appearing at the MIDI IN connection is buffered, then output from this
connection. In other words, all MIDI data appearing at the MIDI IN connector is output to
the MIDI THRU connector unaffected by the CBX-D5.

C
TO HOST connector
An 8-pin mini DIN connector that allows direct connection to a computer that is running
CBX-D5 supporting software. This can be used when your computer does not have a
MIDI interface, i.e., MIDI input and output connections. See “TO HOST connection” on
page 30 for more details.

Power inlet
A 3-pin power inlet socket. Connect the supplied power cable to this socket, then plug the

NOTE:
Although not usually a problem on a small MIDI system, when more than
three MIDI devices are daisy chained together using MIDI IN and THRU
connections, MIDI data can sometimes be delayed, especially if you transmit
a lot of continuous controller data such as pitch bend or modulation wheel. If
MIDI delays do become a problem, use a MIDI THRU Box to distribute the
MIDI signal to each MIDI device.

The operation of the MIDI IN and MIDI OUT connections varies depending
on the position of the CBX-D5’s Host select switch. See “TO HOST
