With Sequencer

The CBX-K2 can be used with a stand-alone sequencer, for
recording and editing performance data.

With Tone Generator

In the simple system below, the CBX-K2 is used to play the
voices of the MU100R Tone Generator. This setup could
also serve as a simple, yet powerful live performance rig,
with the CBX-K2 being used as a portable keyboard
controller.

Connect the MIDI OUT terminal on the CBX-K2 to the MIDI
IN terminal on the MU100R.

Connect the MIDI OUT terminal on the CBX-K2 to the MIDI
IN terminal on the sequencer.

For tone generators without a built-in MIDI interface

Connect the MIDI OUT terminal on the CBX-K2 to the MIDI
IN terminal on the computer’s MIDI interface. The tone
generator should be connected to a MIDI OUT on the
interface.

NOTE

Set the MIDI Thru (or Echo Back) setting on

the sequencer software to ON.

As for the required MIDI settings for the computer and
sequencer software, refer to the respective manuals.
