Using Midi Through A Usb Connection; Connecting To A Computer; Usb - Korg HT-70 Bedienungsanleitung

Using MIDI through a USB Connection

The HT-70 allows you to carry out MIDI communications with a com-
puter directly through a USB connection. This eliminates the need for
using MIDI cable and a separate MIDI interface device to make the con-
nection. Once the connection has been made, you can use the HT-70, for
example, as a MIDI sound generator or MIDI keyboard.

Connecting to a Computer

Where possible, you should use the KORG USB-MIDI Driver when con-
necting to a computer by USB. Specifically, you should use the driver
whenever connecting to a computer that provides the necessary support.
Computer environments that support the KORG USB-
MIDI Driver are as follows.

XP or Microsoft Windows Vista.

(Note: The Korg USB-MIDI Driver x64 editions is available in beta

Installing the KORG USB-MIDI Driver
Please do not connect the HT-70 to the computer by USB cable until you
have first installed the KORG USB-MIDI Driver Tools. Proceed as fol-
lows.
1. Insert the included CD-ROM into your computer's CD-ROM drive.
In most cases, the KORG Digital Piano Application Installer will start
automatically when you insert the CD-ROM.
If your computer setup has disabled automatic start, please start the
program by navigating to the CD-ROM and double-clicking "Korg-
Setup.exe".
2. Follow the instructions on your screen.
The installer will also install the KORG MIDI Data Filer. The
Data Filer is not used by the HT-70.
3. Turn on the HT-70 power, and connect the HT-70 to the computer by
USB cable. The computer will then automatically install the Windows
standard USB MIDI driver.
You must now proceed to install the KORG USB-MIDI Driver for the
USB port that you are using.
