1. Power switch
This switch turns the power on/off. Each time you press it, the power will alternate on
or off.
2. DC 9V
Connect the included AC adapter here.
3. Adapter cable holder
Hook the adapter cable around this so that it will not be disconnected accidentally.
4. MIDI connectors
IN MIDI data is received at this connector to control the EM-1 from an external
MIDI device or to receive a data dump.
OUT MIDI data is transmitted from this connector to control an external MIDI de
vice or to transmit a data dump.
THRU MIDI data received at the MIDI IN connector is re-transmitted without change
from this connector. This is used to "daisy-chain" multiple MIDI devices.
5. L/MONO, R (line output) jacks
Connect your audio cables from these jacks to your mixer or powered monitor system
(powered speakers) etc. If you wish to make monaural connections, connect the L/
MONO jack.
