Using the PC-80 as an audio interface
This section explains basic connections and audio signal flow when using the PC-80 as an audio
interface.
You can refer to the block diagram (p. 82) together with this explanation.
* To prevent malfunction and/or damage to speakers or other devices, always turn down the volume, and
turn off the power on all devices before making any connections.
* When connection cables with resistors are used, the volume level of equipment connected to the inputs
(Input jacks) may be low. If this happens, use connection cables that do not contain resistors, such as those
from the Roland PCS series.
