Playing Sounds

●

Use a special cable (the optional PCS-31) to send output
from the LINE/PHONES jack to equipment such as a
mixer. Using an ordinary cable will cause only the left-
channel sound to be output.

* Turn up the volume on amps and other equipment only after
all connections are completed and the power for connected
devices is turned on.
*This unit is equipped with a protection circuit. A brief interval
(several seconds) after power up is required before the unit will
operate normally.

Adjusting the Volume

Adjust the ME-50’s volume with the MASTER LEVEL knob.

fig.0050

* Raising the MASTER LEVEL knob too much may result in
sound distortion.
* When the effects are all off, input and output are at the same
levels as when the MASTER LEVEL knob is at the center
position.
*The setting of the MASTER LEVEL knob is stored in memory
for each Patch (p. 20).

If There Is No Sound/If the Volume is Low

●Are connections to other devices correctly made?
Check the connections once more.
●Is the volume turned down?
Check the volume levels on any connected amp or mixer.
●Can you hear sound through the headphones when
headphones are connected?
If you can hear sounds, it may be that there is a short in
the cable used to connect the amp or other device, or
perhaps a mistake in an external device’s settings. Check
the connecting cables and external devices once more.
●Has the level been lowered with the expression pedal?
Sounds are not output when the toe of the expression
pedal is in the raised position while the pedal is set to
function as a volume pedal. (p. 19)
●Is the ME-50 in Tuner mode (p. 24)?
Output is muted in Tuner mode.
●Is a cable containing a resistor being used to connect a
CD or MD player to the AUX IN jack?
Using a cable containing a resistor may prevent sound
from CD and MD players from being audible.

device.

Recorder, etc.
