Connections

a channel that corresponds to the PS1500 Common Channel (refer to the chapters ded- icated to MIDI).

MK	PS1500
MIDI OUT	MIDI IN

•To record Songs on external computers or sequencers, connect the PS1500 MIDI IN to the MIDI OUT of the external device, the PS1500 MIDI OUT to the MIDI IN of the exter- nal device. This configuration is called a “closed MIDI loop”.

PS1500	COMPUTER
MIDI OUT	MIDI IN
MIDI IN	MIDI OUT

Set PS1500 to Song mode and set a track for Local Off operation (in «Edit MIDI») in order to send PS1500 keyboard data to its own inter- nal sound engine via the external computer/ sequencer.

INPUT

Right/M, Left + Volume

Right - Left Stereo inputs for the connection of external audio sources (a musical instrument, cassette recorder or CD player, etc.) which can play through the PS1500 internal amplification system. For stereo connections use both LEFT and RIGHT/MONO jacks. For mono connections use only the RIGHT/MONO jack.

The small VOLUME knob controls the level of the signal fed into the INPUT jacks. The signal received at these jacks is fed to the instrument’s main mix and delivered by the internal speakers as well as the LEFT-RIGHT/M outputs. The in- put signals are not, however, processed by the internal effects processor.

COMPUTER

It is possible to connect PS1500 directly to a com- puter via the COMPUTER port.

This connection is alternative to MIDI; both types of communication are not simultaneously permit- ted.

Macintosh and compatibles. Use a standard serial cable DB8-DB8 or the Baldwin serial cable (optional). Program the sequencer to communi- cate with PS1500 at the velocity of [1 MHz].

PC IBM and compatibles. Use the Baldwin se- rial cable (optional). Select the appropriate com- munication velocity in PS1500 to communicate with the PC («Edit General»).
