How does the MIDI signal get out? Is it a 5 pin DIN or something more compact? How big of a hassle is the cable when used on stage?

Hi, well I use a mfc10 foot switch, made by Yamaha, on stage, it allows quick push switch with my foot for presets, it powers the wx5 with six cable. The mfc10 is connected to my Roland sound canvas via reg midi cable. You can hear dome of the stuff I do at one of my websites, www.ratalleycats.com. I use flute, organ, vibe and synth settings mostly. Terry

From the wx5 there are 2 output available 1 is 5pin DIN and special output for vl70m (cable provided in box) . On stage its only 1 standard audio cable like guitar or bass cable out from vl70 to mixer or amp.

Yes, the MIDI signal goes to the sound generator through the round five pin cable. You can free yourself from the cable with a MIDI Jet wireless transmitter and receiver. You will need batteries in your WX5, lasting more than 10 hours. I have used it for years on mine with good experiences.

It accommodates a DIN 5 pin standard MIDI cable, and also supports a narrow Yamaha cable that connects to their VL70m monophonic sound module. This Yamaha cable has a locking ring that the MIDI DIN does not, which makes the wind synth and W70m a fine combination for live performances, especially since the module natively supports all of the breath control and lip control features of the WX-5.

I havent used it without the computer so im not sure if it works independently but I know there is a battery port. What number of keys are you thinking about getting? I had a 49 and it definitely was portable on the road but on a plane im not sure depending on what size keys you get. the smaller one is def. A good size. The keys are for sure fun to play with and has great feedback when you play. I would recommend this midi keyboard for the price

Why not come out of the pc with the dac? Sounds like you're still using the pc dac to convert the signal. Garbage in, garbage out.

It explains it in the manual, but essentially you have to get a MIDI to USB converter and plug the MIDI in and out into the DD65 and the USB into your computer where you are running your DAW.

What? This is a MIDI/usb interface, there's not a MIDI port in a microphone...

Just to be clear, this is a midi controller, meaning there are no stored sounds inside the unit. There are no speakers on the unit either. It just controls your software. You plug this into a computer loaded with a software that has all of your sounds. You can transpose on the keyboard or in the software. As far as an external speaker you can run out of the computer audio Jack into an amplifier or mixer

You can use a midi controller as long as 1.its powered, 2 you intend to only input midi notes and use the pitch and mod wheels. as for going from one patch to another, its all got to be entered by hand because its analog. But thats part of what makes the sound so great. Limitations with the gear ya use open up creative doors.

Ya, use with alesis, kaosscilator and yamaha djx...pretty much the same as midi to midi cables, auto detect under windows and linux. Midi data only...for command and control. Will NOT record audio. (That's not what they are for.)

I've had mi Tascam long enough I don't readily remember, but my guess would be that it doesn't come with a MIDI cable. Besides, if you're going to run MIDI with it, you'll need TWO cables - one for MIDI in and another for MIDI out.

It is a midi by itself, you do need to hook it up to a program and speakers in order to produce soind with it

The music is saved internally, I'm guessing on some sort of chip. No USB, or HDMI on the model I have. It has MIDI and 1/4 audio outputs. You can plug a microphone into it but I didn't see anything in the manual about vocal effects.

I used it with a pedal a bought here on Amazon, and it worked great, youneed to know the signal is great when you are close to the receiver, even tho I used it about 25 foots away and it worked fine, but to avoid bad signal use it near the receiver. You will need another music plug cable to connect this device to the pedal, it'll be like and extra plug, since the device comes with one plug that for example in my case I used it to plug the device and my guitar.

Hey,Without knowing what model Crown amp and controller you have, it is just speculation. My Crown amp inputs take RCA plugs. Also it depends on the output jacks on you midi controller.You have just got to look and make sure the right jacks are being looked at. The cable itself is great to use. I have several Hosa cables and like them a lot.

Some MIDI to USB cables. These should work well: CREATIVE EMU XMIDI 1X1 USB MIDI Interface

hi when i plug in the midi cable i get a error that the drivers didn't get install.do you have the link to the drivers?

No not at all. It's a MIDI controller keyboard, not a standalone synth. The sound source is typically software-based running on a computer.

Hi every one!! I have to clear a doubt before I buy this item, I love to use midi and playback instruments especially with Reason (obviously I take advantage on recording at the same time), my doubt is if I will have playback latency with this unit as it does not use an internal PCI card? Thanks in advance
