Connecting A MIDI Data
Storage Device
By connecting a MIDI data storage device such as the Yamaha
MDF3 MIDI Data Filer to the CS2x you can save a single User
Performance or all the User Performances and Utility parameters
to floppy disk using MIDI data “Bulk Dump” operations.
This lets you build up complete libraries of Performance and
other data, which you can easily load back into the CS2x. (You
can also play compatible song data on the CS2x directly from the
MDF3 itself, without the need for a sequencer.)
n
The HOST SELECT switch must be set to MIDI. For details
about CS2x Bulk Dump operations, see page 64. (Also refer
to the owner’s manual of the MIDI data storage device for
instructions about sending and receiving data.)
Connecting A Computer
Using the CS2x with a computer permits the widest variety of
options for getting the most from the CS2x’s multitimbral music
production capabilities based on the particular music sequencer
software application you use.
With its built-in host computer interface (TO HOST terminal) the
CS2x is designed for direct connection to an Apple Macintosh,
IBM PC/AT or NEC PC-9800 Series computer — without the need
for a special MIDI interface between the computer and the CS2x.
(If your computer already has a MIDI interface installed, you may
prefer to use it.)
Depending on the computer or interface used, you will need to
use the appropriate MIDI/computer connecting cable (see
following) as well as set the HOST SELECT switch to either PC-1
(NEC PC-9800 Series), PC-2 (IBM PC and clones), Mac
(Macintosh), or MIDI (standard MIDI interface).

You may have to set the Apple MIDI Driver setting as follows:
MIDI Interface Type (Clock)
1MHz. Other settings may
also be required. Refer to the owner’s manual of your
particular music software for more information.
Direct Connection To IBM PC and Clones
If you have an IBM PC/AT or compatible computer not equipped
with an external MIDI interface, perform the following operation:
1. Set the HOST SELECT switch to PC-2.
2. Connect the cable from the CS2x’s TO HOST terminal to one
of the computer’s serial ports, COM 1 or COM 2.
3. Turn on the power of the host computer, then the CS2x.
4. Launch the music software application, and set up the
software options for operation with the CS2x.

For more information, refer to the owner’s manual of your
particular music software.
