Install the \"driver\" software so that your computer knows about the UX16 and your keyboard becomes a powerful creative tool.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"description\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eYamaha UX16 USB MIDI Interface at a Glance:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAllows you to record, edit, and save your musical creations on your computer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWorks with any MIDI keyboard or other MIDI controller\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupports 16 channels of record and playback\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUSB connectivity for convenience\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"description\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eAllows you to record, edit, and save your musical creations on your computer\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMany people that purchase keyboards would love to be able to save and edit their songs in the computer, the same way that they use Word Processors. Having a graphical display, whether you choose the Piano Roll view or Notation view, makes it very easy to fix any errors you may have made playing your song. Of course, composers like the fact that they can print their masterpieces. Once you are connected to your computer, you will need some kind of music software. There are many kinds of software available for handling music, from very inexpensive to thousands of dollars.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"description\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWorks with any MIDI keyboard or other MIDI controller\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Yamaha UX16 works with any keyboard or controller that has MIDI jacks on the back (5-pin din jacks). Most digital pianos now feature MIDI jacks on the back. If your keyboard does not have a disk drive, one of the only ways you can save a performance permanently is to connect your keyboard to a computer and play it into the music software. If you do have a disk drive, you could record your song to your floppy disk and then open that file in your computer. At this point, you do not have to actually connect your keyboard to your computer. The song would play back on your internal sound card in your computer (provided you have one). If you want to be able to make changes (edit) to the song and hear in real time what it will sound like on your keyboard, then you would want to have the computer and the keyboard connected together. That's where the UX16 comes in.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"description\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSupports 16 channels of record and playback\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Yamaha UX16 can handle 16 channels of simultaneous playback. This will support your music production system with one MIDI OUT port (16 channels) and one MIDI IN port (16 channels). This is the number of channels you need to create and playback General MIDI files.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"description\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eUSB connectivity for convenience\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith a USB connection, you can connect and disconnect the USB cable while the power to the computer is on. The UX16 operates on USB bus power and does not require a power adaptor or batteries. The indicator lights show if the UX16 is connected properly to your USB jack and there are also lights to indicate when it is receiving MIDI IN \u0026amp; OUT. This is very handy to verify operation. You can easily expand the number of ports by using a USB hub to connect multiple UX16 units. A maximum of 32 units can be connected, but this would depend on your system. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"description\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eYamaha UX16 USB MIDI Interface Features:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1-in, 1-out USB MIDI interface\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuilt-in USB and MIDI cables\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupports 16 channels of MIDI recording and playback\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes CD with drivers and software\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRuns on USB power - no adapter needed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"description\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"h4black\"\u003eThe Yamaha UX16 USB MIDI interface is as easy as it gets!\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch1 class=\"product\" style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1641\/1633\/files\/Screen_Shot_2017-03-15_at_3.26.29_PM_large.png?v=1489616551\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/h1\u003e","brand":"Yamaha","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":31118523857,"sku":"750326","price":49.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1641\/1633\/products\/Screen_Shot_2017-03-15_at_3.38.32_PM.png?v=1489617309","url":"https:\/\/studio-senter.myshopify.com\/products\/yamaha-ux16-midi-usb-converter","provider":"Studio Senter","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
