3. While you speak or sing into the mic, turn the
rear panel INPUT LEVEL knob and the front
panel PITCH (C1) knob to adjust the volume of
the input from the INPUT jack.
The input level is shown numerically at the right edge of
the screen. Adjust this to a value below 0.0 (i.e., a
negative number).
The rear panel INPUT LEVEL knob adjusts the input
level before the pre-effect (p. 58), and the front panel
PITCH (C1) knob adjusts the input level following the
pre-effect.
[MENU] will blink if the input level exceeds 0.0.
If you want to make more detailed settings, choose
MicSet in the top menu screen (p. 58).
4. Speak or sing into the mic while you play the
keyboard.
If you're playing a patch whose patch algorithm (p. 7) is
Processor Type 1 or Processor Type 2, you won't hear
the patch unless you input sound from an external device
connected to the rear panel INPUT L in addition to the
mic input. If you connect a mic and a line-level device at
the same time, use the controls of your external device to
adjust the input level.
If you're playing a patch whose patch algorithm (p. 7) is
Keyboard~, you don't need to speak or sing into the mic;
the patch will produce sound when you simply play the
keyboard.
