Setting Up Your MU80
In this introductory section, you’ll learn how to set up the MU80 for use
with a MIDI keyboard. (Setting up for use with a computer is covered on
page 26.)
What You’ll Need
☛The MU80 and the included power adaptor.
☛A MIDI keyboard, electronic piano, or any instrument that can output
MIDI data.
☛An amplifier/speaker system, preferably stereo. Alternately, you can use
a set of stereo headphones.
☛Audio connecting cables.
☛A MIDI cable.
Making the Connections
CAUTION!
Before making any connections, make sure that all equipment to be connected is turned off,
and that the MU80 power adaptor is not connected to an electrical outlet.
Operation
1Connect one end of the MIDI cable to the MIDI OUT terminal of
the MIDI keyboard and the other to MIDI IN-A of the MU80 (as
shown in the illustration below).
2Connect the audio cables from the R and L/MONO OUTPUT
jacks of the MU80 to the appropriate inputs on the amplifier
speaker system (as shown in the illustration below).
If the amplifier has only one input, use the L/MONO jack on
the MU80. If you are using stereo headphones, connect them to
the front panel PHONES jack.
3Set the HOST SELECT switch on the MU80 to MIDI.
4Connect the power adaptor to the DC IN terminal on the MU80
and plug the adaptor into an appropriate electrical outlet.
