Audio
Audio Org
Spkr Mix: 0-127
This parameter allows you to determine the level of the Classic Organ sounds in the overall Speaker mix.
Press [NEXT] as necessary until this parameter appears in the LCD. Set the volume level with the [+]/[-] (or
[++]/[--]) buttons.
Audio DBar
Spkr Mix: 0-127
This parameter allows you to determine the level of the Tone-Wheel/Drawbar sounds in the overall Speaker
mix. Press [NEXT] as necessary until this parameter appears in the LCD. Set the volume level with the [+]/[-
] (or [++]/[--]) buttons.

AUXILIARY INPUTS

However, if you've connected external devices to the W-5000 (through the AUX INPUTs (XLR or 1/4"),
you can also hear these sources through the internal speakers. So, for example, if you want to connect two
microphones to the 1/4" AUX INPUTs (one for each channel), you'll be able to hear the microphone signals
through the W-5000's internal speakers.
To be able to do this however, you'll have to set a couple of parameters that will optimize the signals from
the microphones. In our example, we'll also determine the pan (stereo location) of the sounds and add reverb.
All of the parameters for the audio system (internal and external) are accessible by pressing the [AUDIO]
button in the FUNCTIONS section. For the example of connecting two microphones, however, we'll show
you which parameters you should set:
Audio Aux
Pad: L0-255 R0-255
This parameter allows you to adjust the input pad (a type of attenuation) for the microphones connected to
the 1/4" AUX INPUT jacks. Press [NEXT]/[PREVIOUS] as necessary to select this parameter. Set the Left
pad so the microphone input level is not too high or low. Use the [+]/[-] (or [++]/[--]) buttons. Press [NEXT]
to select the Right pad. Make an appropriate setting for the right microphone. (A value of '0' mutes the input.
A value of '192' is 'Unity' gain. Finally, a value of '255' is +31.5dB.)
Audio Aux
Gain: +0db, +6db, +12db, +18db
This parameter allows you to adjust the input sensitivity to match the output of the microphones. Press
[NEXT]/[PREVIOUS] as necessary to select this parameter. Set the Gain using the [+]/[-] buttons. (This
setting applies to both inputs.) This option has been optimized on the W5000C and is not configurable.
Audio Aux Left
Spkr: L0-127 R0-127
This parameter allows you to direct the microphone signal from the left AUX INPUT to the left or right
speakers in the W-5000 (the pan location). Press [NEXT]/[PREVIOUS] as necessary to select this parameter.
Set the amount of signal you want to go to the left using the [+]/[-] (or [++]/[--]) buttons. (Higher numbers
move the signal farther to the left.) Press [NEXT] to move to the next field. Set the amount of signal you
want to send to the right speakers. (Higher numbers move the signal farther to the right.)
Audio Aux Right
Spkr: L0-127 R0-127
This parameter allows you to direct the microphone signal from the right AUX INPUT to the left or right
speakers in the W-5000 (the pan location). Press [NEXT]/[PREVIOUS] as necessary to select this parameter.
Set the amount of signal you want to go to the left using the [+]/[-] (or [++]/[--]) buttons. (Higher numbers
move the signal farther to the left.) Press [NEXT] to move to the next field. Set the amount of signal you
want to send to the right speakers. (Higher numbers move the signal farther to the right.)
