Caution
• When using the headphones, do not play using at high volume levels or for long periods of time.
Doing so can lead to irreparable damage to your hearing.
• Before connecting the SILENT Cello™ to any external devices, make sure that the power of all related
devices is turned OFF. Set the volume level of any external audio sources to the minimum level before
connecting anything. High volume settings could cause damage to the equipment and your hearing.
• If a connection cord is unplugged while the power is ON, it may result in damage to the equipment.
The sudden shock to your ears may be great, so please use with care.
• Be careful not to step on the cord. The cord may break, equipment may be damaged, and this may
cause a substantial shock to your ears.
• The signal from the SILENT Cello™ output jacks must NEVER be returned to the AUX IN jack, either
directly or through external equipment. Doing so will result in feedback which may cause damage
to the internal electronics.
• When connecting the instrument to external audio equipment, check the jack size and make sure to
use a plug size that corresponds to the jack being used, and properly connect the cable to the jack.
• When a powered speaker is connect to the LINE OUT jack, speakers with inadequate power ratings may
distort due to the low frequencies produced by the instrument. For sufficient headroom, used powered
speakers with a power rating of 50 watts or more.
• If the sound is distorted, rotate the VOLUME dial to the left.
■ AUX IN jack
• The AUX IN jack, located on the rear of the
instrument, can be used to connect an external
stereo signal source to the SILENT Cello™.
Connecting the audio output of a CD player, etc.
to the instrument allows you to play along with
the external audio source.
• The AUX IN jack's signal level can be controlled
with the AUX. VOL control.
■ LINE OUT jack
The LINE OUT jack, located on the rear of
the instrument, delivers the stereo signal of the
SILENT Cello™ to external audio equipment.
Using an optional stereo phone plug cable (or
monaural phone plug cable) to connect the
instrument to the audio input jack of external
Powered speakers, mixing console, etc. to listen
from external audio equipment or recording.
The LINE OUT jack's signal level can be con-
trolled with the VOLUME control.
