• Connect the microphone to the MIC INPUT jack on the rear panel.
• Press the [MIC ON/OFF] button on the panel so that the lamp lights.
• Adjust the microphone input level by using the INPUT GAIN knob.
• Adjust the input gain so that the PEAK lamp flashes briefly on the loud peaks.
• Select “MIC” by pressing the Knob Function buttons; then adjust the volume by using the Knob to
which VOLUME is assigned.
Use a dynamic microphone for best results. Avoid microphones that require external (Phantom) power – the
keyboard does
not supply +48V required for these types of microphones. If you want to use one, you will
need to connect it to a mixer or device that can supply this voltage prior to connecting to the XS.
