power .
Supplying phantom power to a dynamic microphone or audio playback device will cause malfunctions . For details
on the specifications of your microphone, refer to the owner’s manual that came with your microphone .

* Note that if you don’t have a MIDI keyboard connected,
the Human Voice sound could continue sounding without
end if the input from the microphone is at too high a level .
Should you encounter this problem, turn the [Mic] knob
counterclockwise to lower the level of the input .
* For information on how to wear the microphone, refer to the
owner’s manual that came with the supplied microphone .
