Connecting MIDI Equipment

fig.ConnectPC.eps

You can use a USB cable (sold separately) to connect the VR-700 to

your computer.

If the VR-700 is connected to a computer in which sequencer

software is installed, the playback from the software can be

sounded by the VR-700, and your performance on the VR-700 can

be recorded by your software.

If you are using sequencer software on your computer, and your

sequencer software’s MIDI Thru function is enabled, change the

following Function mode parameters as follows.

• Set “Local Control” to OFF (it will be ON when the power is turned

on)

• Set “USB MIDI Thru Switch” to ON (factory setting is OFF)

* If your sequencer software’s MIDI Thru function is not enabled,

there’s no need to change these settings.

* The “Local Control” setting is not remembered by the VR-700. It will

be ON when you turn on the power.

* If “Sub Keyboard Function” (p. 57) is set to Upper (or Lower), MIDI

messages received at the MIDI IN connector will automatically be

converted to the MIDI channel specified by “Upper Organ MIDI

Channel” (or “Lower Organ MIDI Channel”). The routing will be the

same as for the MIDI PEDAL IN connector (p. 65).
