Using MIDI
About MIDI
MIDI (Musical Instrument Digital Interface) is a standard way in which certain electronic musical devices can
communicate with each other. When two MIDI devices are connected, they can send/receive MIDI
"messages," "data," or "information" over either a 5-pin MIDI cable or a standard USB cable (depending on
the available ports on the devices).
In the case of the DM Lite module, you can connect its USB port to a USB port on your computer with a
standard USB cable (sold separately). All MIDI messages will travel to and from your computer over this
connection. This allows you to do one of two things:
• Use an electronic drum kit connected to the drum module to trigger sounds on an external MIDI
device (e.g., a sequencer, your computer if you use software that can receive MIDI notes, etc.). See
Triggering Sounds on an External MIDI Device later in this section.
• Use an external MIDI device to play sounds in the drum module. See Using the Drum Module as the
Sound Module later in this section.

1. Using a standard USB cable (not included), connect the drum module's USB port to a USB port on
your computer.
2. If you are triggering sounds in software, skip to the next step.
If you are triggering sounds in an external MIDI device, make sure that device is connected to your
computer (either directly via USB or through a USB-MIDI interface).
3. Set the active track of your MIDI software, sequencer, etc. to Channel 10, and start recording.
4. Play your electronic drum kit. The MIDI information will be sent to your computer, sequencer, etc. See
the Trigger MIDI Notes section of this manual's Appendix for a list of the MIDI notes sent out by
each trigger.
5. Stop recording.

3. Set the the active track of your MIDI software, sequencer, etc. to the desired channel (1-16).
Note: Channel 10 of the drum module is reserved for drum sounds.
