Connections

Setup Examples 1

Switching the Power On and Off

Once the connections have been completed, turn on power to
your various devices in the order specified. By turning on
devices in the wrong order, you risk causing malfunction
and/or damage to speakers and other devices.
1.
Make sure that all volume controls on the PM-30 and
connected devices are set to 0.
2.
Turn on all the devices connected to the PM-30 ’s input
jacks.
3.
Turn on the PM-30.
4.
Switch on any equipment connected to the PM-30’s
LINE OUT jack.
5.
Adjust the volume levels for the devices.

6.

Before switching off the power, lower the volume on each of
the devices in your system and then TURN OFF the devices
in the reverse order to which they were switched on.

* This unit is equipped with a protection circuit. A brief interval
(a few seconds) after power up is required before the unit will
operate normally. For protection from sudden big sound,
always make sure to have the volume level turned down before
switching on power. Even with the volume all the way down,
you may still hear some sound when the power is switched on
and off, but this is normal, and does not indicate a malfunction.
* If you need to turn off the power completely, first turn off the
POWER switch, then unplug the power cord from the power
outlet. Refer to “Power Supply” (p. 5).
* To prevent malfunction and/or damage to speakers or other
devices, always turn down the volume, and turn off the power
on all devices before making any connections.

About Volume Settings

To get good sound when using the PM-30, set the volume as
described below.
1
Set the V-DRUMS/CH1-CH3 VOLUME knobs, the
WOOFER CONTROL VOLUME knob, and the
EQUALIZER knobs to the center position, and set the
MASTER VOLUME knob to 0. Set the PUNCH
function and WOOFER MODE as desired.
2
Play or operate the devices connected to the V-
DRUMS/CH1-CH3 inputs to input audio (play back the
V-Drums demo, a CD, etc.) to the PM-30.
3.
Turn the MASTER VOLUME knob to achieve a
provisional volume level making further adjustment of
the volume settings and tone easier.
4.

Turn the V-DRUMS/CH1-CH3 VOLUME knobs to adjust
the volume balance between the connected devices.

5.

Turn the WOOFER CONTROL VOLUME knob to
adjust the volume of the main unit while obtaining a
balance with the volume from the satellite speakers.

6.

Turn the BASS, MIDDLE, and TREBLE knobs to adjust
the overall tone.

7.

Adjust the overall volume level with the MASTER
VOLUME knob.

* If the sound is distorting, lower the MASTER VOLUME knob, the
V-DRUMS/CH1-CH3 VOLUME knobs, and the volume knobs on
the devices connected to the V-DRUMS/CH1-CH3 inputs to adjust
the volume until the sound is not distorted.

* When connection cables with resistors are used, the volume level
of equipment connected to the inputs may be low. If this happens,
use connection cables that do not contain resistors, such as those
from the Roland PCS series.
