Introduction to NAUTILUS
5. Analog Audio Outputs
All of the analog audio outputs use balanced TRS 1/4" phone
jacks, referenced to a +4 dBu signal level.
Connect these outputs to the input jacks of your amp or
mixer. In addition to the L/MONO and R main stereo audio
outputs, the NAUTILUS provides four individual audio
outputs.
The sound from each oscillator, drum, timbre/track, or insert
effect can be freely routed to any output. Additionally, you
can route the metronome sound to an individual output, to
separate it from the stereo mix. For more information, see
"Effects selection and routing" on page 223.
(Main) L/MONO, R
These are the main stereo outputs; their volume is controlled
by the MASTER VOLUME slider. All of the factory
Programs and Combis are programmed to play through these
outputs.
When editing sounds, or when setting up a Song in
SEQUENCER mode, you can access the main outputs by
setting Bus Select to L/R.
If no cable is connected to the R output, L/MONO will carry
a mono summation of the stereo signal. So, if you are
connecting to a device which does not have stereo inputs
(such as a simple keyboard amp), use the L/MONO output.
(Individual) 1...4
These 4 additional audio outputs let you isolate sounds,
audio inputs, or audio tracks for recording or complex live
sound setups.
These can be used as stereo or mono outputs, in any
combination. You can also use the Global Audio page LR
Bus Indiv. Assign parameter to map the main stereo outputs
to any of these output pairs, if you like.
Note that the individual outputs are not affected by the
MASTER VOLUME slider.
6. Headphone jack
You can connect headphones to this jack (stereo 1/4"). This
jack outputs the same signal as the Audio (OUTPUT)
L/MONO and R jacks. Use the MASTER VOLUME slider
to control the headphone volume.
7. MIDI
MIDI lets you connect NAUTILUS to computers or other
MIDI devices, for sending and receiving notes, controller
gestures, sound settings, and so on. For more information on
MIDI connections, see "MIDI applications" on page 929 of
the PG.

MIDI THRU connector
MIDI data received at the MIDI IN connector is re-
transmitted without change from the MIDI THRU connector.
You can use this to chain multiple MIDI devices together.
MIDI OUT connector
This connector transmits MIDI data. Use this to control
external MIDI devices, or to record into an external
sequencer.
MIDI IN connector
This connector receives MIDI data. Use this to play the
NAUTILUS from another MIDI device, or from an external
sequencer.
8. Pedals
DAMPER jack
For the damper–also known as the sustain pedal– you can
connect either a standard footswitch, or Korg's special half-
damper pedal, the optional DS-1H.
The DS-1H half-damper pedal allows a finer degree of
control compared to switch-type pedals. Set the pedal
polarity so that the half-damper pedal will function correctly.
1. Set the polarity in "Damper Polarity" (GLOBAL >
Controllers/Scales–Controller page) as appropriate.
With the KORG DS-1H, use the (–) KORG Standard
setting.
2. After setting the polarity, calibrate the pedal using the
"Half Damper Calibration" page menu command
(GLOBAL > Basic Setup page).
ASSIGNABLE SWITCH jack
This lets you connect a simple on/off footswitch, such as the
optional Korg PS-1. The footswitch can perform a wide
variety of functions, such as modulating sounds and effects,
tap tempo, sequencer start/stop, etc.
The switch's function is set in GLOBAL > Controllers tab of
the Controllers/Scales page, so that it always works the same
regardless of the current Program, Combi, or Song. For more
information, see "Setting up the Assignable Switch and
Pedal" on page 175.
ASSIGNABLE PEDAL jack
This lets you connect a continuous controller pedal, such as
the Korg EXP-2 foot controller or Korg XVP-20 EXP/VOL
pedal, to use as an assignable modulation source.
Like the ASSIGNABLE SWITCH, the pedal's function is
set in GLOBAL mode. For more information, see "Setting
up the Assignable Switch and Pedal" on page 175.
