Connecting MIDI devices
The system illustrated below uses a standard MIDI interface to con-
nect the VM200, a MIDI keyboard, and a MIDI sampler to a com-
puter.
Cascading Two VM200s
In the configuration illustrated below, two VM200s are cascaded
(linked) together via MIDI. This type of connection enables you, for
example, to perform the following functions on both machines while
operating only one:
• Recall, store, and change the name of scene memories
• Update the display
• Control Solo mode
Note: When you cascade two VM200s, be sure to set the ECHO param-
eter on 1: MIDI TX&RX page to “OFF” to avoid message loop.
