About MIDI
MIDI, short for “Musical Instrument Digital Interface,” was
developed as a standard for the exchange of performance
data between electronic instruments and computers.
The ep-90/70 is equipped with MIDI connectors to allow
such exchange of performance data with external equipment
and devices. Connecting the keyboard to other devices with
these jacks provides you with an even greater variety of
ways to use your keyboard.
