Some Notes on Using a Microphone

Be careful of high volume levels when using mikes late at night or early in the morning.

When connecting a microphone to the AT-20S, be sure to lower the volume. If the volume control is too high when the microphone is plugged in, noise may be produced by the speakers.

Howling could be produced depending on the location of microphones relative to speakers. This can be remedied by:

Changing the orientation of the microphone.

Relocating microphone at a greater distance from speakers.

Lowering volume levels.

Using Headphones

The AT-20S features a Phones jack. This allows you to play without having to worry about bothering others around you, even at night.

2.Adjust the headphones volume with the [Master Volume] slider and Expression pedal.

Some Notes on Using Headphones

To prevent damage to the cord, handle the headphones only by the headset or the plug.

Headphones may be damaged if the volume is too high when they are plugged in.

Lower the volume on the AT-20S before plugging in headphones.

To prevent possible auditory damage, loss of hearing, or damage to the headphones, the headphones should not be used at an excessively high volume.

Use the headphones at a moderate volume level.
