[AUX OUT (LEVEL FIXED)] Jacks

(RCA pin jacks of [L]and [R])

When these are connected (with RCA pin plug; LEVEL
FIXED), the sound is output to the external device at a
fixed level, regardless of the [MASTER VOLUME] con-
trol setting. Use these when controlling volume with an
external audio system, or recording the instrument’s
sound to an external audio system. Connect the instru-
ment’s AUX OUT [L]/[R] (LEVEL FIXED) jacks and the
AUX IN jacks of an external audio system using appro-
priate audio cables.

Playing External Audio Devices with the

Built-in Speakers (4 [AUX IN] Jacks)

The stereo outputs from another instrument can be con-
nected to these jacks, allowing the sound of an external
instrument to be reproduced via the instrument’s speak-
ers. Connect the output jacks (LINE OUT etc.) of an
external synthesizer or the tone generator module and
the instrument’s AUX IN [L/L+R]/[R] jacks using appro-
priate audio cables.
n
•Use only the [L/L+R] jack for connection with a monaural device.
•The instrument’s [MASTER VOLUME] setting affects the input
signal from the [AUX IN] jacks.
