Rear Panel

USB-HOST
This is a USB Type A (Master/Host) con-
nector, USB 2.0 compliant (High Speed
only – to connect older, slower USB devices,
please use an USB hub). Use it to connect
to the Pa300 an USB Flash Memory stick,
an external CD-ROM drive, an USB hard disk. You can access
the connected device in the Media mode.
USB-DEVICE
This is a USB Type B (Slave/Device) connector, USB 2.0 (High
Speed). Use it to connect the Pa300 to a personal computer, and
transfer data to/from its internal memory (Disk). You can enable
USB connection in the "USB" page of the Media mode.
MIDI over USB is supported, so you can use this connector
instead of the MIDI ports found on older devices. The drivers
for PC and Mac, needed to make full use of this type of connec-
tion, are supplied in the Accessory Disc that comes with the
instrument, or can be downloaded from our web site.
PEDAL/DAMPER
Use this port to connect a footswitch or Damper
pedal, like the (optional) Korg PS1, PS3 or DS1H,
or a continuous/expression pedal, like the
(optional) Korg EXP2, XVP10. To program and
calibrate it, or to change its polarity, go to the
Controllers > Foot Controllers page of the Global mode.
PHONES/AUDIO OUT
Use this connector to connect a pair of head-
phones, or to send the audio signal (sound) to
a mixer, a PA system, a set of powered moni-
tors, or your hi-fi system.
You can select the type of connection by using
the "Level" parameter in the Global > Audio & EQ > MP3/Out-
put page (see page 161).
When the Headphone option is assigned to the "Level" parame-
ter, you can connect headphones. You can use headphones with
an impedance of 16-200 Ohms (50 Ohms suggested).
When the Line Out option is assigned to the "Level" parameter,
you can connect a line-level device to this connector. Use a ste-
reo jack to send the final stereo mix to an external device. Con-
nect the other end of the cable to a stereo channel of your mixer,
two mono channels, two powered monitors, or the CD, LINE IN
or TAPE/AUX input of your audio system. Don't use the
PHONO inputs of your audio system!
Adjust the output level with the MASTER VOLUME knob.
DC IN 15V power adapter connector
Plug the supplied power adapter into this
connector. When the cable is connected, the
instrument is in standby mode. To let it enter
or exit standby, use the POWER switch
located on the front panel.
Warning: When the instrument is in standby mode, it is still con-
nected to the power line. Accessing the inside of the instrument can
be dangerous. To completely disconnect the instrument from the
power, unplug the power plug from the power socket on the wall.
Cable holder
Fix the power cable to this hook, to avoid cable
jamming.
