21 Ground Terminal
Depending on the circumstances of a particular setup, you may
experience a discomforting sensation, or perceive that the surface
feels gritty to the touch when you touch this device, microphones
connected to it, or the metal portions of other objects, such as
guitars. This is due to an infinitesimal electrical charge, which is
absolutely harmless. However, if you are concerned about this, con-
nect the ground terminal (see figure) with an external ground. When
the unit is grounded, a slight hum may occur, depending on the
particulars of your installation. If you are unsure of the connection
method, contact the nearest Roland Service Center, or an authorized
Roland distributor, as listed on the “Information” page.
Unsuitable places for connection
• Water pipes (may result in shock or electrocution)
• Gas pipes (may result in fire or explosion)
• Telephone-line ground or lightning rod (may be dangerous in
the event of lightning)
