XV-2020
If you are using the XV-
2020 with a sequencer, do
not disconnect the MIDI
cable connected to the XV-
2020 while a song is
playing back.
There will be a version
number following
“FreeMIDI Setup” as the
actual icon name.
If the dialog box does not
show
“XV-2020 Driver,”
check whether the XV-2020
is connected correctly, and
start up FreeMIDI Setup
once again.
If the “About Quick
Setup” dialog box is not
displayed, select “Quick
Setup...” from the
“Configuration” menu.
This completes connections for the XV-2020 and Macintosh, and installation of the
MIDI driver. Now, MIDI data can be input and output (recorded and played).
