THE INITIAL STATUS (DEFAULT)

After turning on, PS1500 sets to Style/Preset mode with the Grand Piano preset ready to play across the full keyboard.

The main display shown a short period after powering up corresponds to the GRAND PIANO Preset. PS1500 defaults to this mode every time you turn on the instrument.

The display shows the name of the current Style and Preset, the tempo and the sounds assigned to the three keyboard sections (Upper 1, Upper 2, Lower).

Let’s go through some of the basic operations that you can carry out after powering up.

ADJUSTING THE GENERAL VOLUME

Adjust the general volume with the MASTER VOLUME panel slider.

A comfortable level is around two thirds of the slider’s travel distance.

If you are using external amplification, better re- sults are obtained by adjusting the volume with mixer or amplifier controls rather than lowering the volume of the instrument.

▶WARNING: Playing at high volume levels could be harmful to your hearing and could damage the amplifier and speakers.

▶Note: If no sound is heard, check that the cable running from the speaker box is properly connected to the SPEAKERS jack on the rear panel of the instrument. This applies to PS1500 models with a speaker box under the keyboard.
