-UPS:
The TX50DE can be used in a variety of different ways, some of which
are shown below and on the following page. Use these ideas to fuel your
imagination for the setup which best suits your needs.
Idea 1 – Play and sing, with external effects and backup:
Connect a micro-
phone to the Low Z jack. Connect an instrument (acoustic or electric gui-
tar, keyboard) to the Instrument Input jack. (This high-Z input works with
all types of pickups, from Piezo to active types.) Connect a rhythm
machine to the CD Input jacks. A two-button footswitch may be used to
select Instrument Channel 1 or 2 and to turn the DSP on and off. Connect
the external effects device to the Insert jack using one of the methods
shown on page 8. (Note that the external effect will be applied equally to
both channels, as well as the CD inputs, so use with discretion.)
Idea 2 – Play along:
Connect an instrument (acoustic or electric guitar,
keyboard) to the Instrument Input jack. Connect a tape player or CD play-
er to either the CD Input jacks or to the Low Z jack of the remaining
channel. (See the notes on page 10 for more detailed information.) A pair
of stereo headphones may be connected to the Headphones jack for pri-
vacy.
