Using The Microphone Jack (Wk-3100 Only; Accessories And Options - Casio WK-3000 User Manual

Sostenuto Pedal
• As with the sustain pedal function described above,
depressing the sostenuto pedal causes notes to be sustained.
• This difference between a sostenuto and sustain pedal is
the timing. With a sostenuto pedal, you press the keys and
then depress the pedal before you release the keys. Only
the notes that are sounding when the pedal is depressed
are sustained.
Soft Pedal
Depressing the pedal softens the sound of the notes being
played.
Rhythm Start/Stop Pedal
In this case, the pedal performs the same functions as the
START/STOP button.
Using the microphone jack
(WK-3100 only)
Connecting a commercially available microphone* to the MIC
IN jack makes it possible to sing as you play, or sing with
accompaniment from Song Memory or SMF playback. When
connecting a microphone, be sure to first adjust the MIC
VOLUME to a relatively low setting, and then adjust to the
level you want after connecting.
* If a microphone was included with your keyboard, use that
microphone. If your keyboard did not come with a
microphone, use a commercially available microphone that
satisfies the stipulated specifications.

IMPORTANT!
• Be sure to use the microphone's ON/OFF switch to turn
off the microphone and to disconnect the microphone
from the keyboard whenever you are not using it.
Recommended Microphone Type
• Dynamic microphone (standard plug)
IMPORTANT!
• Connection to the MIDI terminal of an external device
can cause static in the microphone signal. Use of a
Cannon type microphone with a metal-shielded body
helps to prevent static.
• Be sure to disconnect the microphone from the keyboard
whenever you are not using it.
Howling (Feedback Noise)
Any of the following conditions can cause howling (feedback
noise).
• Covering the head of the microphone with your hand
• Positioning the microphone too near to a speaker
Should howling occur, try grasping the microphone further
away from the head, and move away from any nearby
speaker.
Static Noise
Fluorescent lighting can cause static noise in the microphone
signal. When this happens, move away from the lighting you
suspect may be causing the static.
NOTE
• Effects are not applied to microphone input.
