“MIDI”
stands
for
‘Musical
Instrument
Digital
Interface.”’
Practically
speaking,
it
lets
you
connect
the
CPS-300
to
other
MIDI-equipped
musical
instruments
and
devices,
such
as
syn-
thesizers,
drum
machines,
sequencers,
and
even
personal
computers.
eConnection
to
Another
MIDI
Keyboard
By
connecting
the
CPS-300
to
another
MIDI
keyboard
—
such
as
the
Casio
VZ-1
—
and
setting
both
instruments
to
the
same
MIDI
channel,
you
can
use
the
CPS-300’s
keyboard
to
control
voices
created
by
external
sound
sources.
The
external
MIDI
instrument
can
also
be
used
to
control
the
CPS-300.
Natural-
ly,
the
sounds
of
both
keyboards
can
also
be
played
in
ensem-
ble
as
well.
