MU128 Guided Tour
Setting Up the MU128 in Your Music System
As you learned in the section The MU128 — What It Is and What It Can
Do on page 19, the MU128 can be integrated into a variety of setups. It
would be impossible to cover all connection possibilities in a short manual
as this; however, the section below will help in quickly setting up the MU128
and using it in your system.
Connecting to MIDI Devices
The MU128 is equipped with MIDI IN, OUT, and THRU terminals, allow-
ing you to use it in any MIDI system. Moreover, the two MIDI IN terminals
are independent 16-channel ports, effectively giving you two tone genera-
tors in one. Refer to the example that most closely matches your setup, then
read the Operation steps at the end of this section.
• MIDI keyboard
In this setup, you can play the sounds of the MU128 from the connected
keyboard.
NOTES
• Connect the MIDI OUT terminal of the keyboard or sequencer to the MIDI IN-A
terminal of the MU128.
• The MU128 features both rear and front panel MIDI IN-A terminals. Since both
cannot be used simultaneously, you must determine which of them you will use.
At the factory, the MIDI IN-A is set for rear panel operation. This can be changed
to front panel operation in the Utility mode’s System parameters (page 157).
