Connecting with External Devices
Normally, you don’t need to install a driver in order to connect
the ATELIER to your computer. However, if some problem
occurs, or if the performance is poor, using the Roland
original driver may solve the problem.

By connecting an external MIDI device and exchanging
performance data, you can control the performances on one
device from the other. For instance, you can output sound from
the other instrument or switch voice on the other instrument.

What’s 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 ATELIER is equipped with MIDI connectors to let it
exchange performance data with external devices. These
connectors can be used to connect the ATELIER to an external
device for even greater versatility.

About MIDI Connectors
The ATELIER has two kinds of MIDI connectors.
Connecting these to the MIDI connectors on a MIDI instrument
makes it possible for the two instruments to control each other.
For instance, you can output sound from the other instrument
or switch tones on the other instrument.
You should also set the MIDI send channel as needed (p. 117).

MIDI Out Connector
Connect the external MIDI device to the MIDI IN connector
with an optional MIDI cable. The notes played on the
keyboard, movements of the Damper pedal, Expression data,
data indicating that a Registration button [1]–[8], etc., was
pressed will be transmitted to the external MIDI connector.

MIDI In Connector
Connect the external MIDI device to the MIDI out connector
with an optional MIDI cable. Performance messages from an
external MIDI device are received here.
These incoming messages may instruct the receiving MIDI
instrument to play sounds or switch voices.
The ATELIER contains two sound generators: one sound
generator for its own keyboards and one GM2/GS sound
generator (p. 133). Normally, musical data transmitted from
an external device to the MIDI In connector is sent to the
GM2/GS sound generator, but you can also set the “MIDI IN
Mode” parameter (p. 116) so that the keyboard sound
generator is controlled.
