Your keyboard includes a feature called MIDI  
(Musical Instrument Digital Interface). MIDI is  
the universal standard for sending and

of electronic musical instruments, regardless  
of the manufacturer.  
."%#76+10".  
Always turn off power to your keyboard and  
the other MIDI device before you connect or  
disconnect MIDI cables.  
As you make the cable connections, be  
sure to align the MIDI cable pins with the  
matching holes on your keyboard’s MIDI  
OUT terminal. If you have trouble plugging  
in the cable, do not force it! You might  
damage the plug or the instrument.  
Using MIDI, you can play music on your

module, and much more.

Every MIDI-equipped instrument has a MIDI  
OUT terminal, and some also have a MIDI IN  
and MIDI THRU terminal. Each of these  
terminals serves a different purpose.  
• MIDI OUT sends MIDI data to (“talks to”)  
the other MIDI instrument(s).  
• MIDI IN receives (“listens to”) MIDI data  
sent by the other MIDI instrument(s).  
• MIDI THRU lets you connect (“network”)  
additional MIDI instruments, and sends  
along to other MIDI devices a copy of all  
data it receives through its MIDI IN  
terminal.  
Your keyboard has a MIDI OUT terminal.  
The cable that connects MIDI devices does  
not actually carry sound between them, like a  
speaker wire carries sound from a receiver to  
a speaker. Instead, MIDI-equipped devices  
communicate with each other using digital  
codes (instructions). One MIDI device sends  
digital instructions representing exactly what  
is being played on it. The other MIDI device  
receives and translates those instructions,  
then produces (or records) the sound as it

dioShack MAKES NO EXPRESS WARRANTIES AND ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING  
THOSE OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ARE LIMITED  
IN DURATION TO THE DURATION OF THE WRITTEN LIMITED WARRANTIES CONTAINED  
HEREIN. EXCEPT AS PROVIDED HEREIN, RadioShack SHALL HAVE NO LIABILITY OR RE-  
SPONSIBILITY TO CUSTOMER OR ANY OTHER PERSON OR ENTITY WITH RESPECT TO ANY  
LIABILITY, LOSS OR DAMAGE CAUSED DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY BY USE OR PERFOR-  
MANCE OF THE PRODUCT OR ARISING OUT OF ANY BREACH OF THIS WARRANTY, IN-

OF TIME, DATA, PROPERTY, REVENUE, OR PROFIT OR ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDEN-  
TAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, EVEN IF RadioShack HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE  
POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.  
Some states do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts or the exclusion or limita-  
tion of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitations or exclusions may not apply to  
you.  
In the event of a product defect during the warranty period, take the product and the RadioShack  
sales receipt as proof of purchase date to any RadioShack store. RadioShack will, at its option, un-  
less otherwise provided by law: (a) correct the defect by product repair without charge for parts and  
labor; (b) replace the product with one of the same or similar design; or (c) refund the purchase  
price. All replaced parts and products, and products on which a refund is made, become the prop-  
erty of RadioShack. New or reconditioned parts and products may be used in the performance of  
warranty service. Repaired or replaced parts and products are warranted for the remainder of the  
original warranty period. You will be charged for repair or replacement of the product made after the  
expiration of the warranty period.  
This warranty does not cover: (a) damage or failure caused by or attributable to acts of God, abuse,  
accident, misuse, improper or abnormal usage, failure to follow instructions, improper installation or  
maintenance, alteration, lightning or other incidence of excess voltage or current; (b) any repairs  
other than those provided by a RadioShack Authorized Service Facility; (c) consumables such as  
fuses or batteries; (d) cosmetic damage; (e) transportation, shipping or insurance costs; or (f) costs  
of product removal, installation, set-up service adjustment or reinstallation.

state to state.
