Using a standard MIDI cable (available separately), you can connect an external MIDI device, and control it 
from the CP300. Likewise, you can use an external MIDI device (such as a keyboard or sequencer) to control 
the sounds on the CP300. Below are several different MIDI connection examples; use the one most similar to 
your intended setup. 

n The CP300 cannot receive or transmit MIDI start (FAh), Continue (FBh), or Stop (FCh) messages. 

Use an external keyboard or synthesizer (such as the MOTIF ES) to remotely select and play the Voices of the 
CP300. 

n The CP300 can playback commercially available Song data or Song data created for other instruments or on a 

computer. For details about MIDI data compatibility, refer to page 100. 

n In order to have an external MIDI device control separate parts of the CP300’s internal tone generator, you’ll need 

to change the “MIDI In Channel” parameter in the MIDI Setting menu. For details, refer to page 65. 

Make sure to match the MIDI Transmit Channel of the external MIDI instrument with the MIDI 
Receive Channel of the CP300. For details on setting the MIDI Transmit Channel of the external MIDI 
instrument, refer to the Owner’s Manual of the MIDI instrument. 
When setting the MIDI Receive Channel of the CP300, confirm the MIDI Receive Channel for each 
part and change the settings of the desired parts, if necessary, to match the MIDI Transmit Channel 
settings on the external MIDI instrument. (Refer to page 65.)
