either a block that plugs into the cables that connect between the devices, or a plug that inserts into the
open SCSI port on a CD-ROM, hard drive, etc. These are generally available at your local computer
store. If your devices aren’t terminated, you’ll experience problems with the sampler, such as locking-up
when first powering-up and difficulties locating a SCSI device from the Load page when attempting to
load files.
Another important rule is to use short, high-quality shielded SCSI cables between SCSI devices. The
combined length between devices shouldn’t exceed ten feet overall. Also, never unplug SCSI cables
from devices while they are on. You can damage your data and equipment by doing this!

MIDI
MIDI connections are standard with one exception. If you want to use the S-760’s MIDI Out/Thru port as
a Thru port, be sure to change this in the System Mode, in the MIDI configuration. The S-760 starts-up
with the MIDI Out selected.
You can change the assignment of MIDI channels in Performance Play page 1 by highlighting the chan-
nel number next to the Patch Name with the cursor, and using either the value knob or the INC/DEC
buttons to select the MIDI channel for the Patch in the Performance.
Example of typical MIDI system setup
Audio Outputs
The S-760 has two stereo outputs that allow you to assign your patches to stereo or individual outputs.
To assign a Patch to different audio outputs, go to the Performance page and select a ‘stereo pair’
(A–D) or ‘individual’ outputs (1–8). If you want to have a total of 4 stereo, or 8 individual analog outputs,
you will need the OP-760-1 Option Board and the DA-400 Output Expander to convert the digital out-
puts on the OP-760-1 expansion board to analog signals that can be used with a conventional audio
mixer.
