Connecting Audio Equipment or an Amplifier

You can connect audio equipment or a music amplifier to the Digital Keyboard and then play through external speakers for more powerful volume and better sound quality.

Whenever connecting a device to the Digital Keyboard, first use the L-2 (CTK-6000: VOLUME) (WK-6500: MAIN VOLUME) knob to set the volume to a low level. After connecting, you can adjust the volume to the level you want.

Whenever you connect any device to the Digital Keyboard, be sure to read the user documentation that comes with the device.

Outputting Keyboard Notes to Audio Equipment 1

Use commercially available connecting cords to connect the external audio equipment to the Digital Keyboard’s T-8 (LINE OUT) jacks as shown in Figure 1. LINE OUT R jack output is right channel sound, while LINE OUT L/MONO jack output is left channel sound. It is up to you to purchase connecting cords 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 Keyboard is connected. Use the L-2(CTK-6000: VOLUME) (WK-6500: MAIN VOLUME) knob to adjust the volume level.

Use a commercially available connecting cord to connect the amplifier to either of the Digital Keyboard’s T-8 (LINE OUT) jacks as shown in Figure 2. LINE OUT R jack output is right channel sound, while LINE OUT L/MONO jack output is left channel sound. Connecting to the LINE OUT L/ MONO jack only outputs a mixture of both channels. It is up to you to purchase connecting cord like the one shown in the illustration for connection of the amplifier. Use the L-2(CTK-6000: VOLUME) (WK-6500: MAIN VOLUME) knob to adjust the volume level.

Playing an External Device from the Digital Keyboard 3

Use a commercially available connecting cord to connect the external audio equipment to the Digital Keyboard’s T-5 (AUDIO IN) jack as shown in Figure 3. The connecting cord should have a stereo mini plug on one end and a plug that matches the configuration of the external device on the other end. Use the L-2(CTK-6000: VOLUME) (WK-6500: MAIN VOLUME) knob to adjust the volume level.
