The Headphones Jack

Use the HEADPHONES jack located on the rear/left of the instrument, behind the Pitch
and Modulation wheels, to listen to the Artis SE on stereo headphones. When headphones
are plugged in, sound still comes through the Left and Right audio jacks. You will need
a 1/4-inch-to-1/8-inch adapter in order to use headphones that have a smaller mini plug
connector.

The Audio In Jack

A 1/8" sized stereo audio jack labelled AUDIO IN on the back panel of the Artis SE allows
you to play an MP3 player or other audio source through the Artis SE. There is no input
volume control for this on the Artis SE itself, so you should control the mix volume of the
Audio Input from the external audio player itself.

Connecting the Power Adapter

The Artis SE runs on standard AC power using a DC power adapter. With the rear panel
power switch in the Off position, connect the DC power adapter to the Artis SE. A power
cord is included to connect the adapter to an AC outlet. Before plugging the cable into the
AC outlet, check that the power is compatible with the Artis SE (with voltages from 90 - 260
volts at 50–60 Hz).

Connecting to Your Audio System

The Audio Out Jacks (Right and Left/Mono)

With the the level on your sound system turned down, connect the Artis SE 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 SE 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 SE. If you have only one
input available, use the Artis SE's Left (Mono) output to get the full signal in mono.
