Connections Connecting to External Audio Equipment Since the synthesizer has no built-in speakers, you need to monitor its sound output via external audio equipment. Alternatively, you could use a pair of headphones. There are several methods of connecting to external audio equipment, as described in the following illustrations. The CS6R also needs an external MIDI controller such as a keyboard, though this is not necessary when using the internal sequencer. For MIDI connections, see the next

Connecting External MIDI Equipment You can connect an external MIDI device using a MIDI cable (available separately) and control it from this synthesizer. You can also use an external MIDI keyboard or sequencer to control the synthesizer’s internal sounds. This section introduces several different applications of MIDI. The HOST SELECT switch on the rear panel should be set to “MIDI.” Otherwise, MIDI information will not be transmitted from the synthesizer’s MIDI OUT connector. Controlling fro

Basics Section Connecting Various Controllers The CS6x has several controller jacks on the rear panel, including FOOT SWITCH, SUSTAIN, FOOT CONTROLLER, FOOT VOLUME and BREATH. You can connect optional controllers like a Foot Switch (the FC4 or FC5), Foot Controller (the FC7) and Breath Controller (BC3, etc.) to control tone, volume, pitch and other parameters. The CS6R only has a Breath Controller connector on its front panel, but other controls (equivalent to the CS6x) may be available using

Powering Up Power-on Procedure When you have made all the necessary connections between your synthesizer and any other devices, make sure that all volume settings are turned down all the way to zero. Then turn on the every device in your setup in the order of MIDI masters (senders), MIDI slaves (receivers), then audio equipment (mixers, amplifiers, speakers, etc.). This ensures the smooth flow of signals from the first device to the last (first MIDI, then audio). When powering down the setup, f

If a previously used Memory Card is inserted in the CARD slot, you will see a screen while files in EXT Memory are being loaded. If a new Memory Card (one never used on the instrument) is inserted in the CARD slot, you will see a screen while a basic file is being created in EXT Memory. If
