Turning the power on/off
When you finish making connections, turn the power
on using the following procedure.
* Be sure that the volumes of the amp and mixer are
turned to the minimum setting. This will prevent
the speakers from being damaged by noise that may
occur when the power is turned on.
1. Turn on the power of the XP-10.
2. Turn on the power of the mixer and amp etc.
3. Raise the volume controls to an appropriate setting.
Play the keyboard and check that sound is produced.
* The XP-10 contains a protection circuit that inserts a
short interval after power is turned on until opera-
tion begins.
To turn the power off, reverse the power-on procedure.

tings you have modified (Performances, Tones,
