14.1/4” Audio Outputs (Output R—L (Mono)): These are unbalanced tip-sleeve (TS) audio outputs for the piano sound, signal from all inputs, and audio signal coming from your computer. If you are connecting to a mono (1 channel) device or amplifier, use the left 1/4” output.

15.Auxiliary RCA Inputs (Aux Input R—L): These inputs mix with the XLR and 1/4” inputs, and also send their signal to the audio outputs. These inputs can receive signal from a variety of sources including mixers, stereo receivers, and other external sound producing equipment.

16.1/4” Instrument Input (Instrument): This tip-sleeve (TS) unbalanced connector enables you to plug in an instrument, such as an electric guitar or bass.

17.XLR Microphone Audio Input (Microphone): This input accepts a dynamic microphone connected via a standard three-pin balanced XLR cable.

18.Sustain Pedal Jack (Sustain): You can plug any polarity foot pedal (not included) into the Sustain Pedal jack on your KeyStudio 49i. The keyboard will automatically detect the correct polarity when powering up. If you want to reverse the polarity, just make sure the pedal is pressed when you switch on your keyboard. The sustain foot pedal is normally used for sustaining the sound you are playing without having to keep your hands on the keyboard, just like a piano.

By default, MIDI data created by KeyStudio 49i is sent to this MIDI output port.

Please see section “MIDI Out Mode Key” on page 26 for more information.
