2. Basic Operations
2.1 Getting Ready
Since the MP8II has no built-in speakers, you will need to connect a mixer,
keyboard amplifier or headphones in order to listen.
Turn the MP8II on, using the POWER SWITCH on the rear panel.
It is recommended to turn the MP8II on before turning on any amplifiers in
order to avoid switching noise.
What you need to know before starting:
Please read this part for a better understanding of the MP8II structure.
The MP8II’s SOUND and SETUP modes are largely the same. The main difference
between the two is that SETUP is used to recall stored SETUPs. Edits and
changes can be made freely in either mode, using the 4 faders, 4 knobs and
MENU functions, however edits made in SOUND mode will be lost when the
power is turned OFF and must therefore be stored in SETUP mode.
In order to start from scratch, use the SOUND mode and press PIANO ONLY
first.
In order to modify a SETUP, select the desired SETUP, perform any edits, and
store the changes as a SETUP.
If selected sounds do not sound correct, it is possible that parameters (knobs
etc.) were edited. To restore sounds to their default setting, use the PIANO
ONLY function, then re-select the desired sound.
