Singing Along With The Vima; Connecting A Microphone - Roland Vima RK-500 Owner's Manual

Singing Along with the VIMA

You can connect a microphone to the VOCAL jack and use the VIMA for karaoke or for
singing along with your own playing. Since the VIMA has two VOCAL jacks, you can
connect two mics simultaneously for a duet.
You can also apply echo to the sound of the microphone, and add effects (vocal effects)
for additional enjoyment.

Connecting a Microphone

1. Connect your microphone to a VOCAL jack located on the left side of the
bottom panel.
If you're using only one microphone, you may connect it to either of the two VOCAL jacks.
Cautions when Using a Microphone
• Be careful of the volume late at night or early in the morning.
• Lower the volume before you connect a microphone to the VIMA. If the volume is raised when
you connect a microphone, noise may be output from the speakers.
• Howling could be produced depending on the location of microphones relative to speakers.
This can be remedied by:
• Changing the orientation of the microphone(s).
• Relocating microphone(s) at a greater distance from speakers.
• Lowering volume levels.
