| Use
a commercially available Sound Blaster MIDI cable adapter to connect
the MD-1121 keyboard to a computer as illustrated below. |
 |
 |
|
|
| *1 |
Also
requires a Sound Blaster or equivalent audio card and joystick
port. |
| *2 |
Connect
the cable's OUT connector to the keyboard's MIDI IN terminal,
and the IN connector to the MIDI OUT terminal. |
|
 |
|
|
| Important! |
|
| • |
Before
connecting your MD-1121 keyboard to your computer, make sure
that the keyboard and computer, as well as all other
peripherals connected to them are turned off. |
| • |
The
location of the joystick port depends on the type of computer
you are using. Check the location of the port on your computer
before performing the following steps. For details, see the
documentation that comes with your computer and audio card. |
| • |
Never
disconnect the Sound Blaster MIDI cable adapter while the
Music Data Management Software for MD-1121 is running. Doing
so not only will cause the software to malfunction, it can
also corrupt data and cause malfunction of your MD-1121
keyboard and/or computer. |
|
 |
|
|
 |
 First,
confirm that your computer is equipped with a Sound Blaster or
compatible audio card with a joystick port (Dsub 15-pin) like
the one shown in Figure 1. |
|
 |
Connect
a Sound Blaster MIDI cable adapter, such as RadioShack catalog
#970-1256
(Figure 2), to the joystick port shown in Figure 1. |
|
|
|
 |
Plug
the MIDI connectors of the cable (Figure 4) into the MD-1121
keyboard's MIDI terminals (Figure 5). Connect the cable's OUT
connector to the keyboard's MIDI IN terminal, and the IN
connector to the MIDI OUT terminal. |

|
| • |
Before
trying to use the connection, be sure to read the
applicable documentation that comes with your computer
and audio card, and your Windows documentation. |
|
| • |
If
your computer does not have a joystick port, you can
connect your MD-1121 keyboard using a commercially
available USB MIDI interface. Note, however, that some
computers do not support use of a MIDI interface. Be
sure to check whether your computer supports use of a
MIDI interface before actually purchasing one. |
