By default, the factory provides 100 Performances programmed especially to meet the needs of most musical tastes.

USB Ports – The Dual Link is equipped with two USB ports enabling the loading of MIDI and MP3 backing tracks. The MIDI backing tracks are routed to the internal General MIDI sound bank.
