Overview
Input/Output Panel
The Input/Output panel is located on the underside of the piano body, behind the power switch and headphone jacks.
Audio In and Audio Out
Audio Out (RCA jacks) may be used to connect the Andante CGP220 to external audio equipment, such as an
outboard mixer, powered speakers, or recording device.
Audio In jacks are used to connect the Andante CGP220's internal speakers to other devices such as
a digital audio player or CD player. Always turn off the Andante CGP220's power before plugging or
unplugging cables into the Audio In jacks.
The Andante CGP220's Volume and Tone Controls do not affect the volume or tone of the sound coming
from the Audio In jacks. Therefore it is best to use a device that has its own output level control and to
use that to adjust the sound volume from the external device.
MIDI In, Out and Thru
Use the MIDI In, Out and Thru ports to connect the Andante CGP220 to other MIDI devices to receive and
send MIDI data.
CC Pedal (Volume/Expression Pedal)
This jack is used to connect a continuous controller pedal for volume and expression control. Our keyboards
require a pedal with a TRS 1/4" connector and 10k linear potentiometer. Most manufacturers EXCEPT
Yamaha and Korg make pedals with the same specifications and should work. Yamaha and Korg pedals
typically use an exponential potentiometer and therefore will not work correctly. The CC-1 pedal is available
from Kurzweil. You can order a pedal through your local Kurzweil dealer.
USB
Connect a USB cable to this port to send and receive MIDI or to connect to a computer for system
updates.
