EFFECT: Is used to select one of four modulation effects
(CHORUS, FLANGER, TREMOLO, DELAY) for the selected
sound. An LED shows which effect is currently active. If
no LED lights up, no modulation effect is active.
VELOCITY: Is used to set the key velocity to SOFT, MEDIUM
or HARD. An LED shows which setting is currently active.
The connectors of the EG2080 are located on the underside of the playing console (center).
LINE OUT: There are two LINE OUT jacks available to
send signals from the EG2080 to other equipment.
1/4" jacks: Use the 1/4" jacks to route the sounds of
devices connected to the LINE IN jacks to the output of the
EG2080. The level of the output signal depends on the
position of the MAIN VOLUME control.
RCA jacks: The RCA jacks solely provide the sounds of
the EG2080, but at a fixed volume level. Signals fed in via
the LINE IN jack are not present here.
LINE IN: Is used to connect feeding devices such as CD
players, sound cards or drum computers. The connected
signal sources are routed to the LINE OUT 1/4" jacks and
to the built-in loudspeakers.
MIDI: The three MIDI jacks enable you to connect external
MIDI devices such as synthesizers, sequencers, etc. to
the EG2080.
MIDI data controlling the sound generator of the EG2080
are received at the IN jack.
MIDI data generated by the keyboard, pedals and some
control elements of the EG2080 are sent from the OUT
jack.
Use the THRU jack to route MIDI data received at the MIDI
IN to the MIDI OUT without changing them. This jack can
be used to connect additional MIDI devices.
PEDALS: Connector for the pedal unit of the EG2080.
4.3 Foot pedals
The EG2080 has three pedals similar to those found on acoustic
grand pianos.
Soft/Piano pedal: Is used for passages to be played very
softly.
Sostenuto pedal: Is used to sustain tones that have been
played before the pedal is pressed, but have not yet
decayed. All tones played after the pedal is pressed decay
normally.

4. CONTROL ELEMENTS AND CONNECTIONS
EUROGRAND EG2080-
If no LED lights up, no key velocity has been selected and
playing a key always triggers a fixed volume level,
irrespective of how hard you play the key.
TRANSPOSE : Is used for setting keyboard/pitch
transposition.
Damper/Forte pedal: Is used to sustain tones already
played but not yet decayed. All tones played after the
pedal is pressed will also be sustained.
4.4 Power supply
POWER: Switches the EG2080 on and off.
Merely switching the unit off does not mean that it
is fully disconnected from the mains. If you do not
plan to use your piano for a prolonged period of
time, please disconnect it from the mains by
unplugging the power cable from the wall outlet.
LED: Lights up when the EG2080 is ready for operation.
4.5 Headphone connectors
Use these jacks to connect your headphones. It is not
possible to control the volume separately.
