1AC POWER ADAPTER CONNECTOR

Plug the supplied power adapter into this connector.

2POWER switch

Use this switch to turn the instrument on or off.

3MIDI INTERFACE

The MIDI interface allows your Pa50 to be connected to an external controller (master keyboard, MIDI guitar, wind con- troller, MIDI accordion…), to an expander, or to a computer running a sequencer or an editor. For more information on how to use the MIDI interface, see the MIDI chapter.

IN

This connector receives MIDI data from a

 

computer or a controller. Connect it to an

 

external controller’s or computer’s MIDI OUT.

OUT

This connector sends MIDI data generated by

 

Pa50’s keyboard, controllers, and/or the inter-

 

nal sequencer. Connect it to an expander’s or

 

computer’s MIDI IN.

THRU

This connector sends an exact copy of the data

 

received on the IN connector. Use it to cascade

 

the Pa50 with other MIDI instruments.

4ASSIGNABLE PEDAL/FOOTSWITCH

5DAMPER

Use this to connect a Damper pedal, like the KORG PS1, PS or DS1H. To change its polarity, see “Damper Pol. (Damper Polarity)” on page 126.

6OUTPUTS

Use these unbalanced connectors to send the audio signal (sound) to a mixer, a PA system, a set of powered monitors, or your hi-fi system. Set the output level with the MASTER VOLUME slider.

7INPUT 1 and 2

Use these unbalanced connectors to input another keyboard/ synthesizer, a (non-powered) mixer’s output, or a CD/tape player (line impedance). The signal is automatically routed to the speakers, the Audio Outputs and the Phones.

8PHONES

Use this connector to connect a pair of headphones. You can use headphones with an impedance of 16-200(50sug- gested). Use a headphone distributor to connect more than one pair of headphones.

Use this to connect a continuous or footswitch pedal, like the KORG EXP2 or XVP10. To program it, see “P/S (Pedal/ Switch)” on page 126.
