Getting Ready
Connecting the Equipment
* To prevent malfunction and equipment failure, always turn down the volume, and turn off all the units before making any connections.
DC IN jack
Connect the included AC
adaptor here.
* Place the AC adaptor so the
side with the indicator faces
upwards. The indicator will
light when you plug the AC
adaptor into an AC outlet.
Turning the Power On/Off
This turns the power on/off.
* Before turning the unit on/off, always be sure to turn the volume down. Even with
the volume turned down, you might hear some sound when switching the unit on/
off. However, this is normal and does not indicate a malfunction.
Auto Off Function
The power to this unit will be turned off automatically after a predetermined
amount of time has passed since it was last used for playing music, or its buttons
or controls were operated (Auto Off function). If you do not want the power to be
turned off automatically, disengage the Auto Off function.
* Any settings that you are in the process of editing will be lost when the power is
turned off. If you have any settings that you want to keep, you should save them
beforehand.
* To restore power, turn the power on again.
For details on the settings, refer to “Reference Manual” (PDF).

used to transfer USB MIDI and USB audio data.
You must install the USB driver when
connecting the unit to your computer.
