Connections; Connecting To External Audio Equipment; Connecting Stereo Powered Speakers; Connecting To A Mixer - Yamaha S90 Owner's Manual

Before connecting the S90 to other electronic components, turn off the power to all the components. Before turning the power on
or off to all components, set all volume levels to minimum (0). Otherwise, electrical shock or damage to the components may occur.
Connecting to External
Audio Equipment
Since the S90 has no built-in speakers, you'll need an
external audio system or a set of stereo headphones to
properly monitor it. The following illustrations show
various connection examples; use the one most similar
to your intended setup.

Connecting stereo powered speakers

A pair of powered speakers can accurately produce the
instrument's rich sounds with their own pan and effect
settings. Connect your powered speakers to the
OUTPUT L/MONO and R jacks on the rear panel.

n When using just one powered speaker, connect it to the
OUTPUT L/MONO jack on the rear panel.

Connecting to a mixer

There are extra audio outputs in addition to the
OUTPUT (L/MONO and R) jacks. Connect these
outputs to a mixer for separately controlling the
outputs of up to four Parts in Performance mode
(pages 29, 41).
