What is MIDI?
The letters MIDI stand for Musical Instrument Digital
Interface, which is the name of a worldwide standard
for digital signals and connectors that makes it possible
to exchange musical data between musical instruments
and computers (machines) produced by different
manufacturers.
NOTE
• For detailed information about MIDI
Implementation, visit the CASIO website at:

.
See “Send channel” and “Local control” on page E-24.
Use the procedures in this section to transfer Recorder
memory data to a computer for storage, and to load
songs to user song memory (Music Library 61 to 70).
IMPORTANT!
• Turning off the Digital Piano while data is being
saved or loaded can cause all data currently stored
in Digital Piano memory (recorded songs, etc.) to be
deleted. Take care so power is not turned off
accidentally during data save and load operations. If
data is deleted, it will take longer than normal for the
Digital Piano to power up the next time you turn it on
(page E-4).
1. Perform steps 1 through 3 of the procedure
under “Connecting the Digital Piano to Your
Computer” on page E-35.
2. Change the digital piano’s USB device mode
to storage.
• While holding down the FUNCTION button, press
the keyboard key that corresponds to the USB device
mode.
• After this setting is changed, the GRAND PIANO
(CONCERT, MODERN) and ELEC PIANO button
lamps flash, and all other lamps are unlit.
• See “USB device mode” on page E-24 for more
information.
3. On your computer, perform the required
operation to display your computer’s storage
devices.
• The memory of this digital piano will appear as
“PIANO” under “Devices with Removable Storage”.
