Using the Stage Piano with a Computer
CP5/CP50 Owner’s Manual 47
Quick Start Guide
2Install the USB MIDI driver on your computer.
For instructions, refer to the Installation Guide included in the downloaded file package. When prompted to connect
the [USB TO HOST] port on your instrument (i.e., the CP5 or CP50) to the computer using a USB cable, do so as
shown below.
3Setup your CP5 or CP50 to allow MIDI data to be exchanged via the [USB TO HOST] port.
Navigate to Page 6 of the Utility screen by pressing the [UTILITY] button, and if necessary, the [6] button. (See the
Reference Manual pdf document for more details.) Turn Knob 2 to set the In/Out parameter (MIDI In/Out) to “USB”.
NOTE If you wish to connect your CP5 or CP50 to a computer via MIDI cables, the In/Out parameter should be set to “MIDI”.
4Press the [STORE] button to store this setting.
Utility settings are stored within User Memory as part of the stage piano’s system settings. For details regarding the
storing procedure, refer to page 50.
Precautions when using the [USB TO HOST] port
When connecting your CP5 or CP50 to a computer via the [USB TO HOST] port, be sure to observe the following precautions.
Failing to do so risks freezing either or both of the devices and corrupting or losing data. If your stage piano or computer should
freeze, restart the application being used, reboot the computer, or turn the stage piano off once and then back on.
• Ensure that an AB-type USB cable is used.
• Before connecting to a computer via the [USB TO HOST] port, restore it from any power-saving mode (such as Suspend, Sleep,
or Standby).
• Connect the computer via the [USB TO HOST] port before turning on your CP5 or CP50.
• Be sure to always perform the following steps before turning the stage piano on or off and either plugging or unplugging a USB
cable.
- Quit all applications.
- Ensure that no data is being sent from the stage piano. (Data is transmitted by playing the keyboard.)
• When connected to a computer, allow at least 6 seconds to pass between turning the stage piano on and off and plugging or
unplugging the USB cable.
