Now, let’s record the sound of your guitar or microphone on track 3 .

Selecting the Input Source

Press the [AUDIO INPUT] button .

The AUDIO INPUT SELECT window will open .

* If the [KEYBOARD] button is lit, press it to turn off its light .

Press the [1] (GUITAR) or [2] (MIC) button to select the audio source that you

want to input .

• When you press a button, the input for that button will turn on .
• When you press the same button once again, the input will turn off .
• If you’re not recording anything, turning off all of the inputs will minimize the noise from the input jacks .

3. Press the [6] (CLOSE) button to close the AUDIO INPUT SELECT window .

Connecting the Recording Source and Adjusting the Analog Input Level

1. As shown in the illustration below, connect your microphone or guitar to the GUITAR/MIC jack .
2. As shown below, use the [LEVEL] knob to adjust the analog input level .

This instrument is equipped with balanced (XLR/TRS) type

jacks . Wiring diagrams for these jacks are shown below . Make

connections after fi rst checking the wiring diagrams of other

equipment you intend to connect .

If you connect a guitar or bass, set this to

“GUITAR.”

If you’re using a condenser microphone,

connect it to the balanced (XLR) jack and

choose the “PHANTOM ON” setting . (Phantom

power is not supplied to the phone jack .)

If you’re using a dynamic microphone, choose

the “PHANTOM OFF” setting .

* Always turn the phantom power off when connecting

any device other than condenser microphones that

require phantom power . You risk causing damage if

you mistakenly supply phantom power to dynamic

microphones, audio playback devices, or other devices

that don’t require such power . Be sure to check the

specifi cations of any microphone you intend to use by

referring to the manual that came with it .

(This instrument’s phantom power: 48 V DC, 10 mA Max)

To adjust the level, use the

[LEVEL] knob located at the

left of the jacks . Adjust the

knob so that the front panel

PEAK indicator lights orange

during the loudest passages . If

this indicator lights red, input

overload has occurred .

Howling could be produced depending on the location of

microphones relative to speakers . This can be remedied by:

• Changing the orientation of the microphone(s) .
• Relocating microphone(s) at a greater distance from

speakers .

• Lowering volume levels .

NOTE

• To prevent malfunction and/or damage to speakers or other devices, always turn down the volume, and turn off the power on all devices before

making any connections .

• When connection cables with resistors are used, the volume level of equipment connected to the inputs (AUDIO INPUT jacks) may be low . If this

happens, use connection cables that do not contain resistors .
