Making the MIDI Connections
Use standard MIDI cables to connect the MIDEX-8 to other external
devices, instruments and sound modules.
A typical MIDI system would e.g. include your MIDEX-8 interface, a
computer, MIDI sequencer software, a MIDI master keyboard and a few
MIDI compatible sound modules. Such a system could be connected as
follows:
• MIDEX-8 interface and computer are connected using the USB standard cable
that came with the MIDEX-8.
• The MIDI output on your Master keyboard is e.g. connected to the first input on
the MIDEX-8 (In 1).
• The first MIDI output (Out 1) on your MIDEX-8 interface is connected to the
MIDI input of a sound module (this can also be your Master keyboard, if it can
generate sound).
• The second MIDI output (Out-2) on the MIDEX-8 is connected to another sound
module.
• You can connect additional sound modules to the other MIDI outputs.
• The second MIDI input (In 2) can e.g. be connected to a second MIDI controller –
say, drum pads or a MIDI saxophone – or can be used as a synchronisation in-
put, e.g. to receive the MIDI clock signals of a drum machine or the MIDI time
code generated by another synchronisation source. The same goes for the
other MIDI inputs.
In the MIDI system setup illustration shown on the next page, the
MIDEX-8 interface is used to transfer MIDI data between master key-
board, computer with application software and sound modules. MIDI
input In 2 receives its data from an electronic drum kit.
