MIDI

Using the RK-100S 2 with other
MIDI devices (MIDI)
MIDI stands for Musical Instrument Digital Interface,
and is a world-wide standard for exchanging various
types of musical data between electronic musical
instruments and computers.
When MIDI cables are used to connect two or more
MIDI devices, performance data can be exchanged
between the devices, even if they were made by different
manufacturers.
The RK-100S 2 lets you assign control change numbers to
the major parameters that affect the sound, and control
these parameters from an external MIDI sequencer while
you play the tone generator.
You can also use the assigned ribbons or buttons to
transmit these control changes to control an external
MIDI device.
