Connection Examples
A. Using External Speakers
The Concert Performer has an amplifier and built-in speakers and together, they produce a powerful sound. However, for larger venues or outdoor performances, you may need to use additional amplification and speaker systems.
Standard 1/4-inch audio cables can be plugged into the CP’s stereo Line Out jacks for this purpose. The CP’s Master Volume will affect the signals levels output from the Line Out Jacks.
B. Using the Concert Performer with Your Home Audio System
You can connect audio cables from your stereo system or another source to the CP’s Line In jacks. The sound of your stereo playing a tape, CD, or even radio will be heard through the CP’s speaker system and mixed in with any sounds from the CP itself, enabling you to play along with your favorite songs! Connect the CP with your CD player or other device as illustrated.
C. Recording Your Performance with Your Tape Recorder
Even though the CP185 do not have a CD-R Drive you can still make a recording from your CP using the Line out Jacks. Simply connect an external CD-R recorder or other recording device (Cassette, Audio software from a personal computer etc.) to the CP’s Line Out Jacks. Everything that you hear coming out of the CP’s built-in speaker system is also sent out through the Line Out Jacks and can be recorded. You can also record anything that is connected to the Line In Jacks along with anything being played by the CP.
