Connecting Your Keyboard
1.
Plug the USB cable provided with your Keystation Mini 32 MK3 keyboard to a free USB port on your
computer.
2.
Plug the other end of the USB cable into the USB input on the Keystation Mini 32 MK3 keyboard.
The single USB cable not only powers the keyboard but also sends MIDI data to and from your computer
system.
If you intend to use your Keystation Mini 32 MK3 with a USB hub, make sure the USB hub uses an external
power supply. Using a passive USB hub which does not use a power supply may not provide enough power
if other devices are connected to the hub.
We do not recommend connecting an audio interface to the same USB hub as the Keystation Mini 32
MK3.
You can also use Keystation Mini 32 MK3 with your iPad to control supported music creation apps.
Connecting your Keystation Mini 32 MK3 to an iPad requires the iPad Camera Connection Kit, which is
available from the Apple Store.

Once you have finished the installation, you will need to configure your music software for use with
Keystation Mini 32 MK3. Connect Keystation Mini 32 MK3 to your computer and then open your software.

For further information about configuring your software to receive MIDI data from your Keystation Mini 32
