Setting Up
Make all necessary connections below before turning the power on.
Connecting headphones (PHONES jack)
Headphones are connected to the PHONES jack. Connecting headphones to the jack automatically cuts off the sound coming through the internal speakers.
The PHONES jack also can be used as a auxiliary stereo output (with a standard stereo phone plug). By connecting this to the input of a keyboard amplifier, mixing console or tape recorder, you can play the sound and record your performance through the external equipment.
•Avoid listening with the headphones at high volume for long periods of time; doing so may not only result in ear fatigue, it may be damaging to your hearing.
•To prevent damage to the speakers, set the volume of the external devices at the minimum setting before connecting them. Failure to observe these cautions may result in electric shock or equipment damage. Also, be sure to set the vol- umes of all devices at their minimum levels and gradually raise the volume controls while playing the instrument to set the desired listening level.
Connecting to external audio devices (OUTPUT R, L terminal)
INPUT
The instrument is equipped with OUTPUT R, L jacks (mono pin plug). By connecting this to the input of a keyboard amplifier, mixing console or tape recorder, you can play the sound and record your performance through the external equipment.
•To prevent damage to the speakers, set the volume of the external devices at the minimum setting before connecting them. Failure to observe these cautions may result in electric shock or equipment damage. Also, be sure to set the vol- umes of all devices at their minimum levels and gradually raise the volume controls while playing the instrument to set the desired listening level.
Connecting a foot switch (SUSTAIN jack)
This feature lets you use an optional footswitch (Yamaha FC4 or FC5) to sustain the sound of the voices.
NOTE
•Make sure that the footswitch plug is properly connected to the SUSTAIN jack before turning on the power.
•Do not press the footswitch while turning the power on. Doing this changes the recognized polarity of the footswitch, resulting in reversed footswitch operation.
Connecting to a computer (USB terminal)
By connecting the USB terminal of this device to the USB terminal of a computer, you can transfer performance data and song files between the devices. (See page 67.)
For example, the Song Filer software (included on the CD- ROM) lets you copy songs on your computer to SmartMedia card for use on the instrument.
To use the USB features, you’ll need to first install the USB- MIDI Driver to your computer.
NOTE
•Make sure to purchase a quality USB cable at a musical instrument store, computer store or electrical appliance store.
