using a MIDI cable.
* Refer to "MIDI keyboard settings" (page 2).
Powered monitor/stereo amplifier
In order to playback the X5DR's high-fidelity sound, we recommend that you connect the X5DR to
powered monitors (i.e., speakers with built-in amplifiers, such as the optional PM-15). If you are going
to connect a stereo amplifier or other device (such as a stereo radio or a cassette tape recorder), use
the connector labeled "LINE IN" or "AUX IN" on those devices.
If you connect the X5DR to a domestic hi-fi system, be careful not to raise the volume level too
!
high, or you may damage the speakers.
