2Playing External Audio Devices with

the Built-in Speakers

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.

•Use only the [L/L+R] jack for connection with a monaural device.

signal from the [AUX IN] jacks.

Contents on a Separate TV Monitor

(PSR-3000)

Connect the instrument to an external TV monitor, and
you can have the current display contents or lyrics (for
group sing-alongs and the like) displayed on the TV. For
instructions on connecting, see page 55.

4Connecting a Microphone

or Guitar ([MIC./LINE IN]

jack) (PSR-3000)

By connecting a microphone to the [MIC./LINE IN] jack
(standard 1/4" phone jack) located on the left underside
of the instrument, you can enjoy singing along with
Song playback (KARAOKE) or with your own perfor-
mance. The instrument outputs your vocals or guitar
sounds through the built-in speakers. For instructions on
connecting, see page 54. Please note that when con-
necting devices of high output level, make sure to set
the [MIC. LINE] switch to “LINE.”
CAUTION
When the sound of an external device is output to the
instrument, first turn on the power to the external device,
then to the instrument. Reverse this order when you turn
the power off.

longed periods of time since doing so could damage your
eyesight. Take frequent breaks and focus your eyes on dis-
tant objects to avoid eyestrain.
