Connect the MIDI output of your MIDI controller (in this example, an Akai MX1000 master keyboard)
to MIDI IN A of the S6000. Connect outputs 1/2 to a stereo amplifier, a stereo input channel on a
mixer (or to two mono channels of a mixer remembering to pan each channel hard left and right to
take full advantage of the S6000’s stereo outputs). Outputs 3-16 (or 3-8 on the S5000 without the
optional expander board) should be connected to channels of your mixer where they may be
mixed, EQ’d and processed separately..
The digital I/O can be connected to any similarly equipped digital audio device such as DAT,
recordable CD, MiniDisk or the channels of a digital mixer.
The above diagram shows a fairly simple setup. When used with a sequencer, assuming it has two
or more MIDI outputs, connect one to MIDI IN A and the other to MIDI IN B. In this way, you can
achieve 32-channel multi-timbral sequencing.
Another option may be to connect one output from your sequencer to MIDI IN A and the output of
your MIDI keyboard to MIDI IN B. This way, you can have some sounds being sequenced whilst
you play certain other sounds from the keyboard. This might be a good setup for live applications
where the sequencer provides the backing tracks and you play live over the top of that.
There are many permutations and no doubt you will find your own according to your set-up and/or
application.
