Power Supply Your QY300 comes supplied with a Yamaha PA-1207 optional AC adaptor. Plug the DC output cable from the AC adaptor into the DC IN jack on the rear panel, then plug the adaptor into a convenient wall AC power socket. It is also a good idea to clip the adaptor’s DC cable into the cable clip on the QY300 rear panel to minimize the possibility of accidentally unplugging the cable during operation. • Do not attempt to use an AC adaptor other than the sup- plied unit or an appropriate re-

Audio Connections The simplest way to monitor the QY300 sound is via a pair of stereo head- phones (1/4” stereo phone plug type) plugged into the PHONES jack. If want to use an external stereo sound system, however, use the L/MONO and R OUTPUT jacks. Since the QY300 output jacks are 1/4” phone types, you might have to use adaptors to connect to a sound system with different input Make sure that both the connector s — e.g. RCA type pin jacks.

Although it has a built-in tone generator, the QY300 can drive external tone generators and synthesizers just like any other MIDI sequencer or music com- puter. You can even combine the internal voices with those produced by exter- nal equipment. Connect the QY300 MIDI OUT connector to the MIDI IN connector of a single external device, or the first in a “chain” of devices you want to control.
