D. Using the Concert Performer with an External MIDI<br />
Instrument<br />
MIDI lets you expand the creative possibilities of the CP by<br />
connecting it to an external MIDI device or personal computer.<br />
Use a MIDI cable to connect the CP’s MIDI Out jack to the other<br />
device’s MIDI In. Likewise, connect the MIDI Out jack of the other<br />
device to the CP’s MIDI In.<br />

Your personal computer can be used as a MIDI device as well. In<br />
order to connect your computer to the CP you will need a MIDI<br />
interface. Check with your local music store or computer dealer<br />
for more information about particular models of these interface<br />
devices. Once you have your computer connected to your Concert<br />
Performer, you can think of it as a powerful extension of the CP’s<br />
own music processing abilities. There are hundreds of software<br />
programs available that you can use to do everything from learn<br />
the basics of piano playing, to creating film scores for your home<br />
movies, to composing the next great digital symphony.<br />
In order for the CP and your computer to properly communicate<br />
over this USB cable, you first need to set the MIDI-USB switch<br />
located next to the MIDI jacks to USB. Also your computer must<br />
have a USB driver installed. Please read the instruction on the<br />
next page for the details about the USB driver.<br />
If you don’t wish to purchase a MIDI interface device for your<br />
computer, the Concert Performer has a special type of interface<br />
built in to it that may make the connection easier. The CP can be<br />
connected directly to the back of your computer via a USB cable.<br />
