OUTPUT Jacks : L and R Pin jacks, L/L+R and R Phone Jacks
The P-80 is equipped with both Pin and Phone OUTPUT jacks to
deliver the output of the P-80 for connection to an instrument ampli-
fier, mixing console, PA system or recording equipment. The Pin
connectors (L and R) provide easy connection to a home audio
system, etc. The L/L+R Phone Jack allows connection of the P-80 to
a monaural sound system. When a plug is inserted into the L/L+R
jack only, the left- and right-channel signals are combined and
delivered via the L/L+R jack so you don’t lose any of the P-80’s
sound.
CAUTION
• Before connecting the P-80 to other electronic components, turn off
the power for all components. Before turning the power on or off for
all components, set all-volume levels to minimum.
• When turning the power on, first turn the P-80's power on and then
turn the power on of the external amplifier/speaker system.
When turning the power off, simply reverse the order.

5SUSTAIN Jack
This terminal is for connecting the sustain pedal to the P-80. The
pedal functions in the same way as a damper pedal on an acoustic
piano.
NOTE
•Make sure that power is OFF when connecting or disconnecting the pedal.
6MIDI IN, and OUT Connectors
The MIDI IN connector receives MIDI data from an external
MIDI device (such as a MIDI sequencer) which can be used to
control the P-80. The MIDI OUT connector transmits MIDI data
generated by the P-80 (e.g. note and velocity data produced by
playing the P-80 keyboard).
More details on MIDI are given in “MIDI Functions” on page 32.
7TO HOST Connector & HOST SELECT Switch
This jack and selector switch allow direct connection to a per-
sonal computer for sequencing and other music applications —
without the need for a separate MIDI interface. See page 36 for
details.
