ProKeys Sono can function as the centerpiece of a simple live performance setup..

Connect a Microphone and an Instrument (such as an electric guitar or bass) to ProKeys Sono and use the Microphone and Instrument gain knobs to set the input levels.. Next, use the Direct Monitor knob to set the overall level of the microphone and instrument inputs in the mix.. Finally, adjust the level of the keyboard’s built-in sounds by using the Voice Volume knob..

If you connected the line outputs of an external device to the aux inputs of ProKeys Sono, the volume level of that device may need to be adjusted at the external device itself..

The mixed signal of Microphone, Instrument, Aux input and built-in sounds will be available on both headphone outputs and the rear-panel 1/4” outputs..

Use the Master Volume slider to adjust the overall output level..

Tip: Connect the MIDI Out jack of ProKeys Sono to an external MIDI synthesizer or sound module. Connect the Line outputs of the external device to the Aux inputs on ProKeys Sono. If you play the ProKeys Sono keyboard, you will trigger MIDI sounds on the external MIDI synthesizer, and can hear them back through the ProKeys Sono main outputs.

NOTE: ProKeys Sono is capable of many advanced features which can be accessed via the ProKeys Sono Edit mode. Many of these features can be useful when ProKeys Sono is operating in Standalone mode. Additional information concerning these features can be found in the “Advanced ProKeys Sono Functions in Edit Mode” chapter of this User Guide.
