Additional Convenient Functionality

By connecting a MIDI pedal keyboard to the C-200, you can play the C-200’s PEDAL division with your feet. (It can then no
longer be played via the keyboard, p. 23).

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.

Connecting an optional pedal keyboard
that has a PK OUT socket

1.

Before making any connections, make sure that all
devices are turned off.

2.

Using the special cable supplied with the pedal board,
connect the C-200’s PK In connector to the PK OUT
connector of your pedal keyboard unit.
See the illustration above.

If the special cable is connected, it is not necessary to
turn the power of the pedal keyboard unit on/off.

3.

Turn on the power on the C-200.

The left side of the C-200’s can no longer be used to play
the PEDAL part. You must therefore play it using the
pedal board. In return, the PEDAL part can now be
played polyphonically.
