5 PERFORM-VE User Manual
3. Connection Diagram
Perform-VE has a lot of connectivity:
• MIDI data is received via the mini-USB port or the 5-Pin MIDI socket.
• MIDI data is transmitted via the mini-USB port.
• The PEDAL input allows you to connect a Switch-3 or Switch-6 (sold separately) to change presets, toggle eects and control the LOOPER and SAMPLE features.
• The AUX input lets you mix stereo audio tracks with Perform-VE’s output.
• The balanced stereo outputs allow connection to any ¼" input equipped mixer or powered speaker system.
• The XLR input is MIDAS microphone preamplier equipped, providing the much-loved MIDAS soft-clipping characteristic sound when pushed hard.
For learning purposes, we recommend that you connect a MIDI keyboard to your Perform-VE while you track along with this reference manual. Your MIDI keyboard will
ideally be connected directly to Perform-VE’s 5-Pin MIDI port as shown above.
Alternatively, your MIDI keyboard can be connected via USB cable to a laptop running music software that features a MIDI soft THRU capability. You would then
connect Perform-VE to the laptop via a second USB cable and congure your DAW to take incoming MIDI from the USB MIDI keyboard and pass it on to Perform-VE’s
USB port. See your respective software manual for details on how to set up your particular system.
