AUDIO OUTPUTS

You can send the sound to an external amplification
system, instead of the internal speakers. This is useful
when recording, or when playing live.
Stereo. Connect two mono cables to the L/MONO &
RIGHT OUTPUTS. Connect the other end of the cables
to a stereo channel of your mixer, two mono channels,
two powered monitors, or the TAPE/AUX input of
your audio system. Don't use the PHONO inputs of
your audio system!
Mono. Connect a mono cable to the L/MONO OUT-
PUT. Connect the other end of the cable to a mono
channel of your mixer, a powered monitor, or a channel
of your TAPE/AUX input of a hi-fi system (you will
hear that channel only, unless you can set the amplifier
to Mono mode).

AUDIO INPUTS

You can connect the output of another electronic musi-
cal instrument, an unpowered mixer, or any audio
device to the rear panel input jack (INPUT: stereo mini-
jack). Since this is a line-level input, you'll need to use a
separately sold mic preamp or mixer if you're connect-
ing a mic.
Use the connected device's volume control to adjust the
input level. Be careful not to make it distort (or "clip").
Here is how to set the volume of the connected device:
if the sound heard on Liverpool's outputs is too low, you
should increase the output level of the connected device.
if it sounds fine, it's ok.
if it distorts, you should lower the level a little, until the
sounds is fine again.

MIDI CONNECTIONS

You can play the internal sounds of your Liverpool
with an external controller, i.e. a master keyboard, a
MIDI guitar, a wind controller, a MIDI accordion, or a
digital piano.
1.
Connect a standard MIDI cable from the MIDI OUT of
your controller to the MIDI IN connector on the Liver-
pool.
2.
Select a transmission MIDI channel on your controller.
Some controllers, like the MIDI accordions, usually
transmit on more than one channel (see more informa-
tion in the MIDI chapter).
3.
On the Liverpool, select the MIDI Setup that best fits
your controllers type (see "Page 4 - MIDI Setup" on
page 127).

DAMPER PEDAL

Connect a Damper (Sustain) pedal to the DAMPER
connector on the back panel. Use a KORG PS-1, PS-3 or
DS-1H footswitch pedal, or a compatible one. To switch
the Damper polarity, see "Damper Pol. (Damper Polar-
ity)" on page 127.
