MIDI INTERFACE
The MIDI interface allows your Pa800 to be connected to exter-
nal controllers (master keyboard, MIDI guitar, wind controller,
MIDI accordion...), to a series of expanders, or to a computer
running a sequencer. For more information on how to use the
MIDI interface, see the "MIDI" chapter.
IN This connector receives MIDI data from a com-
puter or a controller. Connect it to an external
controller's or computer's MIDI OUT.
OUT This connector sends MIDI data generated by
Pa800's keyboard, controllers, and/or the internal
sequencer. Connect it to an expander's or com-
puter's MIDI IN.
THRU This connector sends an exact copy of the data
received on the IN connector. Use it to cascade
the Pa800 with other MIDI instruments.

AUDIO OUTPUT
Use these unbalanced connectors to send the audio signal
(sound) to a mixer, a PA system, a set of powered monitors, or
your hi-fi system.
To set the output for each track, or the routing for the audio
inputs, see the "Audio Output" section, starting from page 226.
LEFT, RIGHT These are the main stereo outputs. Use them to
send the final stereo mix to an external device.
Connect either of them to output the signal in
mono. Set the output level with the MASTER
VOLUME slider.
1, 2 These are the sub outputs. Use them to create a
stereo sub-mix of just some tracks, or to output
just a single instrument to be mixed alone, or to
be processed or amplified externally.
Note: The MASTER VOLUME slider has no effect
on these outputs. Signal is sent dry, with no effects
applied.
8
AUDIO INPUT
Use these connectors to input another keyboard/synthesizer, a
CD or MP3 player, or one or two dynamic microphones. To con-
nect a condenser microphone, you need an external phantom
power supply (refer to your microphone user's manual).
1, 2 Use these balanced/unbalanced connectors to
connect your external source(s). The signal goes
directly to the final mix. As an alternative, it can
be sent to the Voice Processor (see "Audio Setup:
Audio In" on page 228 for more information).
GAIN Use these controls to adjust the input sensitivity
of the input connectors (from 0 to -40 dB). You
can check the input level by watching at the
AUDIO IN LED on the control panel (see
"AUDIO IN LED" on page 15).
