Overview<br />
Here you can make MIDI-related settings for the microKORG.<br />
MIDI stands for Musical Instrument Digital Interface, and is a world-wide standard<br />
for exchanging various types of musical data between electronic musical instruments<br />
and <strong>com</strong>puters. When MIDI cables are used to connect two or more MIDI<br />
devices, performance data can be exchanged between the devices, even if they were<br />
made by different manufacturers.<br />
The microKORG lets you assign control change numbers to the major parameters<br />
that affect the sound, and control these parameters from an external MIDI sequencer<br />
while you play the tone generator. You can also operate the assigned knobs<br />
1–5 or keys to transmit these control changes to control an external MIDI device.<br />
You can synchronize the microKORG's arpeggiator, LFO rate, or the delay time of<br />
the delay effect to the MIDI Clock of an external MIDI sequencer.<br />
MIDI on the microKORG<br />
Controlling the microKORG's tone generator from an external<br />
MIDI device<br />
When you wish to play or control the microKORG's tone generator from an external<br />
MIDI keyboard or sequencer etc., use a MIDI cable to connect the MIDI OUT<br />
connector of the external MIDI device to the MIDI IN connector of the microKORG.<br />

Controlling two or more external MIDI tone generators from the<br />
microKORG<br />
You can use the MIDI THRU connector to simultaneously control multiple MIDI<br />
devices. (This type of connection should be used to connect no more than three<br />
devices. If you wish to connect a larger number of MIDI devices, we re<strong>com</strong>mend<br />
that you use a MIDI patch bay as shown in the second diagram below.)<br />
