Connecting External Devices
Connecting Audio Devices
You can connect audio devices to play the sound of the HPi-5
through the speakers of your audio system, or to record your
performance on a tape recorder or other recording device.
Use phone plug audio cables (sold separately) to make connections.
Example connections
*
To prevent malfunction and/or damage to speakers or other
devices, always turn down the volume, and turn off the power on
all devices before making any connections.

Connections with MIDI Devices
By connecting external MIDI devices and exchanging performance
data, a device can control the performance of another device. For
example, you can play sounds from another device, or select sounds
remotely.
What is MIDI?
“MIDI” stands for “Musical Instrument Digital Interface,” and is a
universal standard created to allow for the exchange of performance
data among electronic musical instruments and computers.
The HPi-5 provides MIDI connectors, which allow performance data
to be exchanged with an external device. When these connectors are
used to connect the HPi-5 to external devices, an even wider range of
possibilities becomes available.
*
A separate publication titled “MIDI Implementation” is also
available. It provides complete details concerning the way MIDI
has been implemented on this unit. If you should require this
publication (such as when you intend to carry out byte-level
programming), please contact the nearest Roland Service
Center or authorized Roland distributor.
Example connections
*
To prevent malfunction and/or damage to speakers or other
devices, always turn down the volume, and turn off the power on
all devices before making any connections.
*
The HPi-5 has one MIDI In connector on the rear panel and
another on the bottom panel. It is not possible to use these two
MIDI In connectors at the same time.
