8 MIDI
What is MIDI?
MIDI is the communication standard for electronic musical
instruments. You can use MIDI to:
● Record what you play on your Micron synthesizer into a
sequencer or computer.
● Play back sequences from a sequencer or computer on your
Micron.
● Store and recall Programs and Setups on a computer.
● Use a computer to edit your Micron’s sounds.
● Use your Micron to control another synthesizer or sound
module.
● Use another keyboard to play your Micron’s sounds.
Some examples of MIDI devices besides your Micron synthesizer
include keyboard controllers, sound modules, drum machines,
sequencers, and computers with MIDI interfaces.
MIDI Connections
The Micron has three MIDI connectors:
● (MIDI IN) is for receiving MIDI information from another
MIDI device.
● (MIDI OUT) is for sending MIDI information to another
device.
● (MIDI THRU) echoes whatever is received on the (MIDI
IN) port.
Here are four typical MIDI setups for your Micron, and the
appropriate connections for each of them:
