KT Quick-Start Guide
1
Welcome!
Thank you for purchasing the ENSONIQ KT. You’ll find the KT to be a wonderful instrument,
full of exciting sounds and features.
Thanks also for opening up the ENSONIQ KT Quick-Start Guide tutorial. This is designed to be
an easy and fun way to get familiar with your new KT. Be sure to go through the Guide in
order—it’ll take about an hour.
This tutorial covers two different products, the KT-76 and the KT-88. The KT-76 has a 76 note
keyboard, whereas the KT-88 has an 88 note keyboard. In this manual, when there are notable
differences, the keyboards will be specifically addressed as the KT-76 and the KT-88. When the
text pertains to both products, they will be referred to as KT.
You’ll need the following materials:
• A KT
• An audio monitoring system (keyboard amp, mixer, headphones, audio cables, etc.)
Getting Ready
1. Plug the KT’s power cable into the AC Line jack on the rear panel of the KT.
2. Plug the other end of the cable into a grounded AC outlet.
3. Connect the SW-6 Foot Switch (found in the accessory kit) into the Foot Switch jack on the
rear panel of the KT.
☞ Important: Always make sure your audio system is turned off (or down) when making
connections in order to avoid damaging speakers or other components.
4. Connect the audio outputs of the KT to the line level inputs of a mixer, instrument amplifier,
stereo, or any other sound system, using 1/4 inch audio cables. If your system is stereo,
connect the Left/Mono and Right/Mono outputs of the KT to two input channels of your
mixer, stereo, etc. (If you’re connecting to your home stereo, you may need a set of 1/4 inch-
to-RCA cables. You can find these at most electronic supply stores.) If your system is mono,
use either the KT’s Left/Mono output or the Right/Mono output, but make sure nothing is
plugged into whichever output jack you’re not using. For listening through headphones,
simply plug your phones into the front panel jack marked “Phones.” If you’re running the
KT through a mixer in stereo, be sure to pan the left channel fully left, and the right channel
fully right to get the full effect of the KT’s stereophonic sound.
