Connections

IMPORTANT!

Whenever connecting external equipment, first set the MAIN VOLUME knob of the digital piano and the volume controller of the external equipment to relatively low volume settings. You can later adjust volume to the level you want after connections are complete.

Connecting Headphones

Connect commercially available headphones to the digital piano’s PHONES jacks. This cuts off the built-in speakers, which means you can practice even late at night without disturbing others. To protect your hearing, make sure that you do not set the volume level too high when using headphones.

Connecting to a PEDAL Jack

Depending on the type of operation you want the pedal (SP-3) to perform, connect the pedal’s cable to the digital piano’s PEDAL DAMPER jack or PEDAL SOFT/SOSTENUTO jack. If you want to use both jacks at the same time, you need to purchase another optionally available pedal.

See “Using the Digital Piano’s Pedals” on page E-9 for information about using a pedal.

Connecting an audio or musical instrument amplifier

Connecting to an audio or musical instrument amplifier provides even clearer, more powerful sound through external speakers.

IMPORTANT!

The digital piano automatically adjusts sound output to optimize for headphone output (when headphones are connected) or built- in speaker output (when headphones are not connected). Note that this feature also affects the sound output from the LINE OUT R and L/MONO jacks.

Connecting to Audio Equipment 1

Use commercially available cables to connect the external audio equipment to the digital piano’s LINE OUT jacks as shown in Figure 1. R jack output is right channel sound, while L/MONO jack output is left channel sound. It is up to you to purchase connecting cables like the ones shown in the illustration for connection of audio equipment. Normally in this configuration you must set the audio equipment’s input selector to the setting that specifies the terminal (such as AUX IN) to which the digital piano is connected. Use the digital piano’s MAIN VOLUME knob to adjust the volume level.

Connecting to a Musical Instrument Amplifier 2

Use commercially available cables to connect the amplifier to the digital piano’s LINE OUT jacks as shown in Figure 2. R jack output is right channel sound, while L/MONO jack output is left channel sound. Connecting to the L/MONO jack only outputs a mixture of both channels. It is up to you to purchase connecting cables like the ones shown in the illustration for connection of the amplifier. Use the digital piano’s MAIN VOLUME knob to adjust the volume level.
