An optional lamp
can be con-
nected to the
9000Pro. This is
especially conve-
nient when using
the 9000Pro in
situations of low
available light.
See page 15 for
details.
This SCSI-2 50-pin connector (D-sub,
half-pitch) can be used to connect to an
external SCSI data storage device —
allowing you to conveniently save and
store large quantities of data.
Refer to page 150.
You can connect the 9000Pro to a television or
video monitor to display the lyrics and chords in
your song data on a larger screen.
Refer to page 165.
Computer
(with music software)
Refer to page 172. An optional Yamaha
FC7 Foot Controller
connected to this jack
can be used to con-
trol volume and a
range of other impor-
tant functions.
Refer to page 159.
The sophisticated MIDI func-
tions give you powerful tools to
expand your music performance
and creation possibilities.
Refer to page 168. One or two optional
Yamaha FC5 foot-
switches connected to
these jacks can be used
to control sustain and a
range of other important
functions.
Refer to page 160.
PHONES jack
A standard pair of
stereo headphones
can be plugged in
here for private
practice or late-night
playing. Use the
[MASTER VOLUME]
control to adjust the
volume of the head-
phone sound. MIC/LINE IN jack
The 9000Pro includes a
microphone/line input jack
which is compatible with
virtually any standard
microphone or line-level
source, accepting either
1/4” phone plugs or XLR
connectors. The micro-
phone or line input can be
used with the 9000Pro’s
vocal harmony function.
• Depending on the SCSI device, you may
need a special connecting cable or adap-
tor to connect the device properly to the
9000Pro. Make sure to confirm the con-
nection configuration of both the
9000Pro and the SCSI device before
purchasing the device.
• The SCSI ID number of the 9000Pro is
fixed at 7. Make sure to set the ID num-
ber of the external SCSI device to a num-
ber other than this (i.e., 0 - 6).
• The MIC/LINE jacks can be used with either 1/4” phone plugs
or XLR connectors; however, they are special differential
input connectors. For phone plugs, the tip and ring of the
plug correspond to “+” and “-,” respectively.
Because of this arrangement, connecting a stereo signal
(such as from a CD player) with a stereo phone jack to the
9000Pro results in the left and right signals cancelling each
other out. To properly connect a CD player or other stereo
source, make sure to use a mono input, either left or right, or
a mix of the stereo signal (pages 32, 80).
• The 9000Pro’s default setting for the external televi-
sion/video monitor signal is “PAL.” Depending on your
particular locale, the standard may be different and the
setting should be changed accordingly. (For example,
NTSC is generally used in North America.) Check the
standard used by your television or video monitor, and
if it is not PAL, change the setting in the VIDEO OUT
display to “NTSC” (page 165).
