Chapter 4 – MIDI Basics

Connecting MIDI

The back of the SX-1 has six MIDI connections:two
MIDI INs and four MIDI OUTs. The jack labeled

MIDI IN

accepts MIDI controller data, while the

MTC

IN

jack accepts incoming MTC (MIDI Time Code)

for synchronization.

The four MIDI outputs can be configured indepen-
dently and can send both performance and synchro-
nization data. Connect your controller’s MIDI output
to the SX-1’s jack labeled

MIDI IN

, and connect the

SX-1’s

MIDI OUT

s to the inputs of your MIDI sound

modules, MIDI-controlled effects, or devices requir-
ing MTC for sync.

In the above example, the MIDI OUT of the control-
ler goes to the SX-1’s

MIDI IN

. The SX-1’s

MIDI

OUT

s go to the MIDI INs of your sound modules,

MIDI-controlled effects and devices that chase MTC.

You can connect multiple devices to the same jack on
the SX-1 by using the MIDI THRU ports on your
external MIDI devices.
