Connecting to Other Devices

If you use a commercially available USB cable to connect the

RG-1F/RG-3F’s USB connector to a USB connector on your

computer, you’ll be able to do the following things.

• Use the RG-1F/RG-3F to play SMF music file that’s played

back by your MIDI-compatible software.

• Exchange MIDI data between the RG-1F/RG-3F and your

sequencer software to allow more sophisticated music

production and editing possibilities.

If connection to your computer is unsuccessful...

Normally, you don’t need to install a driver in order to connect

the RG-1F/RG-3F to your computer. However, if some problem

occurs, or if the performance is poor, using the Roland original

driver may solve the problem.

For details on downloading and installing the Roland original

driver, refer to the Roland website.
