Preparing to play

Be sure to turn off the power before making connections. Careless operation may damage your speaker system or cause malfunctions.

1. Connect the included AC adapter to the DC 9V jack, and plug the adapter into an AC outlet.

As shown in the above diagram, hook the AC adapter cable around the adapter cable holder. When removing the cable from the holder, do not use excessive force.

2.Connect one end of your audio cables to the line out jacks of the ES-1(L/MONO, R), and connect the other end to your mixer or powered monitor speakers (amplified speakers) etc. If you will be listening in mono, use the L/MONO jack. To take full advantage of the ES-1's sound quality, we recommend that you listen in stereo.

3.If you will be using headphones, connect them to the headphone jack.

The output from the line out jacks will not be switched off even if headphones are plugged in.

Master volume

Part keys

4.When you have finished making connections, turn on the power. Slightly raise the master volume of the ES-1, and strike the part keys (1...7B, Slice) to check whether connections have been made correctly. Use the master volume of the ES-1and the gain and fader controls of your mixer or powered monitor system to adjust the volume to an appropriate level.
