Connecting to Other Devices

Connecting a reface CS

and reface DX and syn-
chronizing their Phrase
Loopers

With, for example, a reface CS and a reface DX
connected via a MIDI cable, operations per-
formed by using the Phrase Looper on the reface
CS will cause the Phrase Looper on the reface
DX to play simultaneously.

q Set the transmit channel on the reface you

will operate (in this example, the reface CS)
to “off.” For details, refer to “Keyboard Set-
tings” (page 41).

w Create a phrase loop on each of the reface CS

and the reface DX.

e Connect the MIDI OUT terminal of the

reface you will operate (in this example, the
reface CS) and the MIDI IN terminal on the
reface you want to produce sound simultane-
ously (in this example, the reface DX).

r Switch the Phrase Looper on the reface CS to

“PLAY” to also start simultaneous playback
of the Phrase Looper on the reface DX at the
same tempo. Using both of the Phrase Loop-
ers together makes it possible to create even
more complex loop phrases.
