In

this

example,

the

RX5

is

part

of

a

sophisticated

digital!

music

system

comprising

a

0х?

synthesizer,

a

QX5

sequence

recorder,

and

a

TX816

FM

tone

generator

system.

An

MJC8

MIDI

junction

controller

enables

instant

switching

between

a

wide

variety

of

MIDI

setups,

to

make

full

use

of

the

RX5's

versatility.

е

The

RX5

can

be

controlled

by

the

QX5

sequence

recorder

in

two

ways:

(1)

by

receiving

stop/start

messages

and

clack

signals

to

control

its

tempo

(refer

to

JOB

#01)

or

(2)

by

receiving

actual

note

information

—the

drum

part

would

be

stored

in

the

QX5

instead

of

in

the

RX5's

data

memory)
