Connect the RK-100S's Output jack to the input jacks of
your mixer or powered monitor speakers.
Note: We recommend that you output in stereo in order to
take full advantage of the RK-100S's sound. When a cable
with standard mono plugs is used, only sound from the
left channel will be output.
Connecting the mic
To use the RK-100S as a vocoder, connect the headset/mic
(not plug-in powered) to the INPUT jack, and then use
your voice as the modulator signal (see 10 page "Playing a
vocoder program").
Note: The INPUT jack is monaural.
Do not use excessive force when connecting or
disconnecting the mic.
Be careful of the mic output level when connecting a
mic.

The RK-100S's INPUT jack can be used as an AUX IN jack.

When an audio device is connected to the INPUT
jack, be sure to set the Input select switch to LINE.
Otherwise, the connected device may be damaged.

3. Hold down the SHIFT button and press the SHORT
RIBBON button.
The RK-100S will enter the Audio In Through mode,
where the audio signal that's input to the INPUT jack is
simply output directly from the Output jack.
When there is an input at the INPUT jack, the SHIFT
button is lit up. If the input is overloaded, the button
is lit up in red.
Note: The INPUT jack is compatible with a stereo plug,
but the audio signal that is output from the Output jack
is monaural.
