AHLBORN - HYMNUS IV
AUX-OUT LEFT/RIGHT
Output for stereo tape recording (Max. level: + 0 dB, 600 ohms).
MIDI IN - OUT - THRU
MIDI (Musical Instrument Digital Interface) is a standard code for interchange of data between
musical instruments. The principal advantage of MIDI lies in the possibility of connecting different
instruments by means of simple IN-OUT-THRU connections, permitting a reciprocal exchange of
information. The information exchanged via MIDI concerns the primary operations carried out by
the instruments (note on/off, various controls etc.). In practice, it is possible to "play" another MIDI
compatible instrument by means of the HYMNUS IV keyboards or vice-versa.
Connecting , for example, the HYMNUS IV MIDI OUT socket to the MIDI IN socket of another
instrument, it is possible to play both instruments by means of the HYMNUS IV keyboards and
pedalboard. The MIDI THRU socket enables more than two instruments to be connected with each
other, utilizing the first as principal transmitter (piloting instrument).
MIDI language can be received by most personal and home computers available on the market,
provided they are equipped with the special MIDI interface and MIDI IN/OUT ports. One of the
many features of this interfacing is the capability of "writing" the music performed on the HYMNUS
IV on a computerised stave in a very short time. Vice-versa, it is possible to "write" music on a
computer video which can be performed by the HYMNUS IV under the direct control of the
computer.
In order to make possible the interchange of MIDI data, it is necessary that both transmitter and
receiver communicate on the same MIDI channel, selected from any of the 16 available channels.
On the HYMNUS IV organ, MIDI channel selection is carried out by means of the remote control
(see the relevant operating instructions).
