Connecting Headphones Or External Audio Equipment; Connecting A Footswitch To The [Sustain] Jack - Yamaha PSR-E443 Quick Manual

Setting Up
Connecting Headphones or
External Audio Equipment
Any pair of stereo headphones with a 1/4" stereo
phone plug can be plugged in here for convenient
monitoring. The speakers are automatically shut off
when a plug is inserted into this jack.
The [PHONES/OUTPUT] jack also functions as an
external output. You can connect the [PHONES/OUT-
PUT] jack to a computer, keyboard amplifier, stereo
system, mixer, tape recorder, or other line-level audio
device to send the instrument's output signal to that
device.
CAUTION
• Do not use the instrument/device or headphones for a long
period of time at a high or uncomfortable volume level,
since this can cause permanent hearing loss. If you experi-
ence any hearing loss or ringing in the ears, consult a phy-
sician.
• Before connecting the instrument to other electronic com-
ponents, set all volume levels to the minimum, then turn
off the power for all components.
NOTICE
• When the instrument's sound is output to an external
device, first turn on the power to the instrument, then to
the external device. Reverse this order when you turn the
power off.

Connecting a Footswitch to the
[SUSTAIN] jack
You can produce a natural sustain as you play by
pressing an optional Footswitch plugged into the
[SUSTAIN] jack. Make sure that the footswitch plug
is properly connected to the [SUSTAIN] jack before
turning on the power.
NOTE
• The sustain function does not affect split voices (page 18).
• Do not press the footswitch while turning the power on. Doing
this changes the recognized polarity of the footswitch, result-
ing in reversed footswitch operation.
