CONNECTION DIAGRAM

As you hook up the SR18, the volume control on your power amp and the SR18 should be all the way down, and power to both units should be off.

1.Plug ¼” TS cables from the MAIN OUTPUTS to an amplifier, mixer, or speaker system. For mono sound, you can connect only one output.

2.Alternatively, you can connect a pair of ¼” TRS headphones to the PHONES OUTPUT.

3.Connect your instrument to the INSTRUMENT INPUT.

4.If you have ¼” TS footswitches, connect them to the START / STOP and COUNT / A / B / FILL jacks.

5.Plug the included power adapter (12V DC 600mA) into the adapter jack and the adapter into a power source. Alternatively, you may choose to power the unit by inserting 6 AA batteries into the bottom compartment.

6.Press the POWER switch to turn on the unit.

7.Tap the pads to hear sounds. You can switch among the three different sound categories for the pads by pressing the corresponding button (DRUMS, PERC, BASS).

8.Adjust the volume control on the rear panel to a suitable listening level.
