Sound Check

The next procedure takes you though a simple sound check that you can use to confirm proper connection
of external audio and MIDI devices. The procedure assumes that you are using a MIDI keyboard to control
A5000/A4000 playback.
[Procedure]
1.
Make sure that the A5000/A4000 STEREO OUT jacks are connected to an amplifier or
mixer and that all components are ready for playback. (page 20)
2.
Connect the MIDI OUT connector of your MIDI controller — keyboard, sequencer, etc.
— to the MIDI IN-A connector (MIDI IN on the A4000) of the sampler and ensure that all
components are ready for MIDI control. (page 25)
3.
Turn on the A5000/A40000 and all connected equipment. (page 27)
4.
Set the A5000/A4000 MASTER VOL control to about the center of its range.
5.
Set the amplifier, mixer, or other audio reproduction device's volume to an appropriate
level.
6.
Set the external MIDI controller's MIDI transmit channel to 1.
7.
Make sure the sampler's [PLAY] mode button is lit (press the [PLAY] button if it isn't).
