MIDI Overview
The G–DEC Jr is well equipped to handle a number of useful
MIDI functions. MIDI stands for “Musical Instrument Digital
Interface” which is a language that lets multiple digital
musical items (keyboards, effects, synthesizers, computers,
etc.) communicate with each other. This manual can’t possibly
cover all the MIDI possibilities you may encounter. If you
desire more information, visit http://www.midi.org online or
search for “MIDI” using your favorite search engine.
Basic MIDI Setup
The most basic MIDI operations on the G–DEC Jr require use
of a MIDI interface device connected to a personal computer.
Most MIDI interface devices will use USB or the game port
on older PCs and are available at most musical instrument
retailers. Refer to the interface manufacturer for proper
device setup. To use the G–DEC Jr MIDI capability, connect
the MIDI In port on the G–DEC Jr to the MIDI Out port on
your MIDI interface with a standard MIDI cable. See figure for
connections.
Streaming MIDI Files to the G–DEC Jr
If you wish to play any available General MIDI file from
your PC through the G–DEC Jr, you will need a third party
PC application that is able to play MIDI files to an external
MIDI port. Search for a MIDI player or MIDI sequence utility
from your favorite search engine online that works with
your specific computer. Consult the documentation for
your application on proper configuration. Once properly
configured, play any MIDI file (typically a file with the .MID
extension) from your MIDI player or sequence application.
The MIDI Out port of your MIDI interface device must be
connected to the MIDI In port on the G–DEC Jr. Note that if
the song is playing but sounds cluttered, make sure any MIDI
thru function in your application is disabled, or simply unplug
the MIDI cable from the MIDI Out port on the PC. Refer to the
Appendix for channels of General MIDI voicings.
