XV2020 as a MIDI interface?

[Geert Hurenkamp]

Hi everybody.

 

I'm looking for some advice.

 

My MIDI-USB interface is malfunctioning. Of course, I could buy a new one, but I own a XV-2020, which has an in built USB port for the transfer of patch data (sysex data).

 

Could I use the XV-2020 as a MIDI-interface, daisy chain my Fantom-S via the XV2020's MIDI THRU port and transfer sysex data via the XV2020 to my Fantom-S?

 

In other words: can I use my XV2020 as a MIDI interface?

 

Thanks for responding in advance.

maybe or maybe not. but a 1x1 midi/usb interface costs about 10 dollars used.

GH,

I have been using a Yamaha MU100R as a MIDI connection for years.

In much the same way. Synth connects also.

This doesn't make any sense.

True. I don't have a dealer nearby though, so that's why my question and possible turnaround solution arose.

 

We'll see...
