Part 14: MIDI connections
The MP-10 PRO can be connected to a personal computer for composing, or to
a sound module to increase your sonic palette. Depending on the situation, you
can either use the MIDI or USB interface for maximum exibility.
MIDI or USB
You can use either the MIDI or USB interface to connect another device. The
choice depends on the type of interface on the other device. In most cases,
personal computers and modern musical instruments are tted with a USB
interface.
A master controller (a master keyboard, a MIDI accordion, a MIDI guitar…)
must be connected via MIDI. A personal computer can be connected either
via MIDI or via the USB port; there is no difference in the way data that are
exchanged.
In case you connect both interfaces, the MP-10 PRO will send the same data
on both ports, and merge the data it receives on them. So, you can play a Song
from a personal computer connected to the USB port, and play Sounds from a
keyboard connected to the MIDI IN port.
Connecting via the MIDI interface
Master keyboards, controllers or sound expanders are tted with a MIDI in-
terface. Connect the MIDI OUT port of the MP-10 PRO to the MIDI IN port
of the receiving device, and the MIDI IN port of the MP-10 PRO to the MIDI
OUT port of the controller device.
To connect the MP-10 PRO to a personal computer via the MIDI interface, you
need an additional MIDI interface for your computer. No additional software
should be needed for your computer.
