To prevent malfunction and/or damage to speakers or other devices, always turn down the volume, and turn off the power on all devices before
making any connections .
When connection cables with resistors are used, the volume level of equipment connected to the inputs (AUDIO INPUT jacks) may be low . If this
happens, use connection cables that do not contain resistors .
Howling could be produced depending on the location of microphones relative to speakers . This can be remedied by:
1. Changing the orientation of the microphone(s) . 2. Relocating microphone(s) at a greater distance from speakers . 3. Lowering volume levels .

For example, you might use the pitch bend lever to control the degree
of distortion, or use keyboard touch to change the delay time . The
parameters that can be controlled in this way are predetermined for
each type of multi-effect; such parameters are indicated by a # in the
parameter lists in Multi-Effects Parameters (MFX1, 2) (p . 48) . Multi-

control multi-effect parameters in real time . You can specify up to four

Connecting the Equipment to Record and Adjusting the Input Level
To the rear panel AUDIO INPUT jacks, connect the equipment that you want to record in the Digital Recorder .
Connect your digital audio player or other audio device to the LINE jacks .
Connect your microphone or guitar to the GUITAR/MIC jack as shown in the illustration .
NOTE
To prevent malfunction and/or damage to speakers or other devices, always turn down the volume, and turn off the power on all devices before
making any connections .
When connection cables with resistors are used, the volume level of equipment connected to the inputs (AUDIO INPUT jacks) may be low . If this
happens, use connection cables that do not contain resistors .
Howling could be produced depending on the location of microphones relative to speakers . This can be remedied by:
1. Changing the orientation of the microphone(s) . 2. Relocating microphone(s) at a greater distance from speakers . 3. Lowering volume levels .
