Connecting an electronic musical instrument
To the EMX5000-20/EMX5000-12’s LINE or ST
SUB IN jacks, you can connect an electronic
musical instrument such as a synthesizer, drum
machine, signal processor connected to an elec-
tric guitar, etc. Refer to the diagram below to
make a stereo connection from the output jacks
(such as L/MONO and R) of an electronic musi-
cal instrument to the LINE or ST SUB IN jacks in
stereo.
Power on
1 Turn on the power to all external devices con-
nected to the EMX5000-20/EMX5000-12.
2 Make sure that the ST OUT fader of the
EMX5000-20/EMX5000-12 is lowered, and then
press the POWER switch of the EMX5000-20/
EMX5000-12 to turn it on.
Be sure to follow the power up sequence specified
above to prevent the speakers from being damaged.
To correct the low range, turn on the YAMAHA
SPEAKER PROCESSING switch in the upper right
corner of the panel.
Sound output
Set the ST OUT fader and the input channel fad-
ers to the “–
” position, and while playing the
instrument (or singing into the mic) connected
to the channel you want to check, raise the GAIN
control of the channel so that the PEAK indicator
of that channel lights occasionally.
Do not press the 26dB PAD switch if sound is input
from the microphone. Otherwise, press the 26dB
PAD switch on.
Set the ST OUT fader to the “0” position, and
raise the faders of the input channels to adjust the
volume.
Please be aware that if the PEAK indicator of the ST
level meter is continuously lit for an extended time,
the internal amp or the connected speakers may be
damaged.
