Audio Inputs; Midi Connections; Damper Pedal; Demo - Korg PA1X User Manual

Note: When a track is sent to the OUTPUT 1 or 2, it is removed
from the main mix going to the internal speakers and the LEFT/
MONO & RIGHT OUTPUTS.
Note: OUTPUTs 1 & 2 are not effected.
Adjust the volume of the LEFT/MONO & RIGHT OUTPUTs
with the MASTER VOLUME slider. Adjust the volume of the 1 &
2 OUTPUTs with the mixer's or external speaker's level controls.

Audio Inputs

Connect your microphone, guitar, or any other musical instru-
ment, to the INPUTs on the back of the instrument. The micro-
phone signal may also be sent to the Voice Processor for
sophisticate processing.
Depending on the connected device(s), you must choose a suit-
able signal routing, by using the 1/MIC switch in the INPUT sec-
tion. Select the "MIC" position to connect a microphone to the
MIC input, or the "1" position to connect a mono or stereo line-
level source (like a synthesizer or an external CD player) to the 1
& 2 INPUTs.
See the "Singing with a connected microphone" chapter on
page 64, and the "Audio Output: Audio In" section on page 240,
for more information on connecting and setting the inputs and
the audio source.

MIDI connections

You can play the internal sounds of your Pa1X with an external
controller, i.e. a master keyboard, a MIDI guitar, a wind control-
ler, a MIDI accordion, or a digital piano.
You can also control other MIDI devices with the Pa1X, or con-
nect it to a computer for use with an external sequencer.
See the "MIDI" chapter for more information on MIDI connec-
tions.

Damper Pedal

Connect a Damper (Sustain) pedal to the DAMPER connector
on the back panel. Use a Korg PS1, PS2 or DS1H footswitch
pedal, or a compatible one. To switch the Damper polarity, see
"Damper Polarity" on page 235
