Digi 002 & Digi 002 Rack and MIDI
What is MIDI?
MIDI (Musical Instrument Digital Interface)
data is not audio, and has no sound. MIDI is a
way for musical devices to communicate. MIDI
is data that can trigger a MIDI device (such as a
keyboard or software synthesizer.).
In order to create or play a MIDI recording, you
must have a MIDI keyboard or sound module
(real or virtual) connected to the computer
through the MIDI ports on the Digi 002 or
Digi 002 Rack, or another MIDI interface. Audio
from your MIDI instrument can be monitored
through the Digi 002 or Digi 002 Rack, or sent
to an external mixer.
Connecting a MIDI Device to Digi 002 or
Digi 002 Rack
To connect your MIDI device to Digi 002 or
Digi 002 Rack:
1 Connect a standard 5-pin MIDI cable from the
MIDI Out port of your device to the MIDI In

Digi 002 Rack.
2 Connect another MIDI cable from the
MIDI In port of your device to the MIDI Out
port on the back panel of the Digi 002 or
Digi 002 Rack.
Monitoring MIDI Instruments with
