The Audio (LEFT/MONO and RIGHT) Jacks
Use the LEFT/MONO and RIGHT audio jacks to connect th Artis to your audio
system. The Artis can use either balanced (TRS) or unbalanced (TS) cables. However it is
recommended to use balanced (TRS) cables where possible, and where your mixer or amp
supports balanced inputs.
The Headphones Jack
Use the HEADPHONES jack to listen to the Artis on stereo headphones.
The headphone jack is located at the front left of the instrument, under the Pitch &
Modulation wheels.
You will need a 1/4-inch-to-1/8-inch adapter in order to use headphones that have a smaller
mini plug connector.
Connecting the Power Cable (Line Cord)
The Artis runs on AC power and works with voltages from 90 - 265 volts at 50–60 Hz. The
voltage level is detected and set automatically by the Artis. As you face the back of the Artis,
the power connection is on the right. First connect the power cable to the Artis, then plug
the power cable into a grounded outlet. If your power source does not have the standard
three hole outlet, you should take the time to install a proper grounding system. This will
reduce the risk of a shock.
Connecting to Your Audio System
After you've turned down the level on your sound system, connect the Artis analog audio
outputs to your sound system using a pair of balanced (TRS or "stereo") or unbalanced
(TS or "mono") audio cables. Unbalanced cables will always work, but if you're going into
balanced inputs, use balanced cables for a better signal-to-noise ratio and a bit more volume.
The Artis analog outputs are balanced.
You'll find two 1/4-inch balanced audio output jacks on the rear panel. Connect one end
of each audio cable to your mixing board or PA system inputs, and connect the other end
to the jacks marked Left (Mono) and Right on the rear panel of the Artis. If you have only
one input available, use the Artis' Left (Mono) output to get the full signal in mono. Use the
jack marked Headphones (located on the front/left of the instrument) to listen to Artis on
headphones. When headphones are plugged in, sound still comes through the Left and Right
audio jacks.
