IMPORTANT!

•You may get static noise in the microphone output if there is an external device connected to the digital piano’s MIDI terminal.

•Be sure to unplug the microphone from the digital piano when

you are not using it.

●Recommended Microphone Type

Dynamic microphone (standard plug)

●Feedback

Any of the following conditions can result in feedback, which causes a howling sound to be produced through the speakers.

•Cupping the head of the microphone with your hands.

•Positioning the microphone to close to the speakers.

If howling occurs, hold the microphone by the barrel (not the head) and move it away from the speakers.

●Noise

Fluorescent lighting near the microphone can cause noise. If this happens, move the microphone away from the fluorescent lighting causing the noise.
