Getting ready to play
Connecting the power cable
Plug the power cable into the power socket.
Make sure that the voltage is suitable for the instrument (the voltage is indicated next
to the AC power inlet).
Turning on the power
Press the POWER switch to turn the instrument on.
On turning on, the instrument will be in the Arrangement Play mode. If you
are connected to an external amplifying system, turn the diffusers on only
after having switched on the iS40/iS50.
To turn the instrument off, press the POWER switch again.
In order to save on electricity, turn the instrument off when you are not
using it. Do not turn the power off while the disk indicator is lit or while a
message such as “Loading”, “Saving” or “Formatting” is on the LCD display.
NB: When the instrument is turned off, all the data contained in the RAM memory will be lost (e.g. backing
sequence and song). On the contrary, USER styles, USER arrangements and USER programs are retained.
Adjusting the volume
Raise the MASTER VOLUME slider to about middle position.
Moving the slider upward towards “10” will increase the volume, and moving it down-
ward towards the “0” will decrease the volume. In the “0” position the instrument will
be mute.
If you are connected to an external amplifying system, you should at this point, turn the
volume of the diffusers up and then adjust both the volume of the iS40/iS50 and that of
the diffusers.
The MASTER VOLUME slider controls the volume of the speakers, the headphones and the OUTPUT jacks
located on the rear panel.
Warning: At higher volumes, the sound can be distorted.
The headphones
Connect the stereo headphones (with a 1/4” jack plug) to
the PHONES jack located on the rear panel.
Adjust the volume with the MASTER VOLUME slider.
The music stand
Insert the music stand (included with the instrument) in the
holes in the rear panel.
Make sure it is stable.
