The PHONES Jack
...................................................................................................................................
A standard pair of stereo headphones can be plugged in here for private
practice or late-night playing. The internal stereo speaker system is auto-
matically shut off when a pair of headphones is plugged into the PHONES
jack.
Setting Up
■
SUSTAIN Jack
...................................................................................................................................................
An optional Yamaha FC4 or FC5 footswitch can be plugged into the rear-
panel SUSTAIN jack for sustain control. The footswitch functions like the
damper pedal on a piano — press for sustain, release for normal sound.
• Be sure that you do not press the
pedal while turning the power on.
If you do, the ON/OFF status of
the footswitch will be reversed.
■
MIDI IN and OUT Connectors
.............................................................................................
The MIDI IN connector receives MIDI data from an external MIDI de-
vice (such as a MIDI sequencer) which can be used to control the PSR-320/
420. The MIDI OUT connector transmits MIDI data generated by the PSR-
320/420 (e.g. note and velocity data produced by playing the keyboard).
More details on MIDI are provided on page 56.
