MU128 Guided Tour
2 Connect the terminals as shown in the illustration below, using
standard computer cables*.
* Make sure to use the following commercially available standard cable types:
For IBM PC/AT or compatible computers: D-SUB 9-pin to Mini DIN 8-pin
(page 101)
For Macintosh computers:8-pin Macintosh Peripheral cable (page 101)
3 Turn on the power of the computer, then the MU128.
4 Start up your music software, and set up the appropriate options
on the software for operation with the MU128.
NOTES
• 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).
• For Windows 95 users:
In order to use the TO HOST connection of the MU128 with your computer,
you’ll need to install special MIDI driver software (YAMAHA CBX Driver for Win-
dows 95). This driver is contained in the included CD-ROM.
• For Macintosh computers, you should set the MIDI interface clock setting on the
application software to 1 MHz.
