Sampling a Sound and Playing it on the Keyboard
(Sampling)
You can use the digital keyboard’s built-in microphone to
record a sound and then play it with the keyboard keys. The
sampling feature is a great way to create your own original
sounds.
Connect a microphone. When connecting a microphone, be
sure to first adjust the MIC VOLUME knob to a low setting.
Keyboard jack connector : Standard plug (monaural)
• Use of a commercially available microphone also is
supported.
• Turn off the microphone and the Digital Keyboard
before connecting them.
• It will take a few seconds before you can use the
microphone after you turn on the Digital Keyboard.
• Sampled sounds are recorded in monaural.
• The built-in microphone is only for inputting and
recording external sounds for use with the sampling
function. Sounds input with the built-in microphone are
not output through the speakers.
• You cannot sample sounds input from through the
AUDIO IN jack.
• The built-in microphone automatically becomes
disabled whenever an external microphone is
connected to the MIC IN/SAMPLING jack.
