PATTERN CHORD RECORD MIXDOWN

Recording from a microphone

The previous pages covered recording a guitar signal connected to the [INPUT] jack. Sometimes you may want to record vocals or an acoustic guitar via a microphone. You can use either the built-in microphone of the PS-02 or an external microphone connected to the [INPUT] jack. Proceed as follows.

◆Preparations

1.To use an external microphone, connect the microphone cable to the [INPUT] jack.

2.Use the cursor []/[] keys to cause the EFFECT menu LED to light.

3.Use the EFFECT PATCH [▲]/[▼] keys to select the patch

where the mic icon () is shown on the display.

This patch is designed specially for microphone recording. When using the built-in microphone or an external microphone connected to the [INPUT] jack, this patch must be selected.

Mic icon

•The "MICPRE" effect type in the DRIVE module is the dedicated

microphone input patch.

•If another patch is selected, the built-in microphone cannot be used, and an external microphone connected to the [INPUT] jack will not be heard with sufficient gain.

4.To use the built-in microphone, press the [MIC] key.

The [MIC] key lights up and the signal from the built-in microphone is used as recording source.

While the [MIC] key is lit, the [INPUT] jack cannot be used. To use an external microphone, omit step 4 and proceed to the next step.
