Connection example 1: A compact production setup

Here’s an example of the use of the INTEGRA-7 for high-quality music production.

This is an easy way to set up a full-edged music production system based on the INTEGRA-7 simply by connecting it to DAW

software in your computer and to a MIDI keyboard.

* If you turn the INTEGRA-7’s USB-MIDI Thru setting “ON,” you’ll be able to use it as a MIDI interface (p. 45).

Connecting your computer via USB

If you connect the INTEGRA-7 to your computer using a USB cable, you’ll be able to use your DAW software to record performance data (MIDI

data) from a MIDI keyboard connected to the INTEGRA-7, and use performance data (MIDI data) played back by the DAW software to play the

sound generator of the INTEGRA-7 (USB MIDI).

The INTEGRA-7 will operate as a MIDI sound module when it is connected to your computer with a

USB cable.

To use USB audio functionality

You’ll need to install a driver in order to use the USB audio functionality of the INTEGRA-7.

This driver can be downloaded from the Roland website.
