# 15.3 CONTROLLING A SYNTHESIZER USING THE MIDI TRACKS

15. SETUP EXAMPLES
15. SETUP EXAMPLES
The Digitone II likes to play with other machines. Whether it uses its ability to sync and play with legacy
machines or controls other synthesizers: Digitone II gets along with other gear.
15.1 DIGITONE II WITH A MONOPHONIC BASS MACHINE
The DIN sync capabilities of the Digitone II allows you to use gear from yesteryear.
In this example, a legacy monophonic bass machine is used alongside the Digitone II. The Digitone II can
stop, start and control the tempo of the bass machine.
1.	 Prepare a bassline pattern on the bass machine.
2.	 Connect the output of the bass machine to the mixer using a Mono jack 6.3 mm male cable.
3.	 Connect the Digitone II audio outputs to the mixer using 2 x Mono or Stereo jack 6.3 mm male cables.
4.	 Use a DIN connector cable to connect the MIDI OUT of the Digitone II to the SYNC IN of the bass
machine.
5.	 On the Digitone II, press [SETTINGS], and then navigate to MIDI CONFIG > PORT CONFIG and set
OUT PORT CONFIG to DIN24.
6.	 Press [PLAY] on the Digitone II.
15.3 CONTROLLING A SYNTHESIZER USING THE MIDI TRACKS

15. SETUP EXAMPLES
Digitone II has extensive capabilities to use its sequencer’s MIDI tracks to control other MIDI-equipped
synthesizers.
1.	 Use a standard MIDI cable to connect the Digitone II MIDI OUT jack with the synthesizer’s MIDI IN
jack.
2.	 On the Digitone II, press [SETTINGS], and then navigate to MIDI CONFIG > PORT CONFIG and set
OUT PORT FUNC to MIDI.
3.	 In the same menu set OUTPUT to MIDI.
4.	 On the main screen, press [TRK] + [TRIG 1-16] to select a track that uses a MIDI SYN machine.
5.	 Press [SYN] and use the CHAN parameter to select a MIDI channel that the track will output its data to.
6.	 Make sure to set your synthesizer to receive MIDI input in a way that corresponds to the settings you
made in the Digitone II.
You are now ready to use the Digitone II sequencer to control your synthesizer. For more information about
using the Digitone II sequencer, please see “10. THE SEQUENCER” on page 41.
