Quick Start
Connecting to a Computer
If you’re running music software on your computer, you can use the computer to
control the operation of the XV-5050. This allows you to create and play back song
data, select sounds on the XV-5050 from the computer, and create new XV-5050
sounds on the computer.
Two Ways to Connect
You can connect the XV-5050 to a computer using either of two methods:
connecting it with a USB connector
and
connecting it with MIDI connectors
.
A USB cable can connect the XV-5050 to your computer’s USB connector.
A MIDI interface is required for making MIDI connections with a computer. The
MIDI interface is connected to the computer, and two MIDI cables connect the MIDI
connectors of the MIDI interface to the XV-5050’s MIDI connectors.
