The Kaossilator can run on either 4-AA batteries, or you can power it with our optional 4.5v AC adapter. Because Korg rocks as
hard as we do, we've included 4-AA batteries in the box to get you started. Slide the back cover off and load 'em up!
a.
The display will show "Lo" when the batteries are indeed low.
2.
As far as outputs go, you have two options:
a.
The RCA LINE OUT jacks on the top of the Kaossilator- plug into any mixer, amplifier, recorder, or RCA-equipped
deep fryer.
b.
The 1/8" stereo PHONE jack on the bottom of the Kaossilator.

The VOLUME DIAL next to the PHONE jack only adjusts the headphone volume, not the RCA line out jacks.
