Basic concepts 19
• Connecting several MIDI instruments in series.
The MIDI THRU port allows the connection of several MIDI instrument in series.
• Recording Songs on a computer or external sequencer.
Connect the WK2 MIDI IN to the MIDI OUT of the external device, the WK2 MIDI OUT
to the MIDI IN of the external device. Set the Upper 1 track for Local Off operation (in
EDIT/GENERAL) in order to send WK2 keyboard data to its own internal sound engine
via the computer/sequencer.
PEDALS
Connect the optional pedals (Volume, Damper and Pedal) to the corresponding pedal con-
nectors.
The default configuration of the pedals and the relative Control Change messages gener-
ated are as follows:
DAMPER: Damper (generates CC64);
VOLUME: Master Volume (generates CC07 on the Common Channel);
PEDAL: Switch Upper 1/Upper 2.
COMPUTER
The WK2 can be connected directly to a computer by means of the COMPUTER connector.
This connection is alternative to MIDI; both types of communication are not permitted at the
same time.
Types of computer connection
Macintosh and compatibles. Connect to the MAC Modem port via a standard serial cable
(DB8-DB8). Programme the sequencer to communicate with WK2.
PC IBM and compatibles. Connect to the PC Serial port via standard DB8-DB9, DB8-
DB25 cables. Select the appropriate communication velocity in the WK2 to communicate
with the PC (see EDIT/GENERAL chapter).
VIDEO INTERFACE
The Video RGB and S-VHS outputs allow you to connect the instrument to an external
monitor or domestic television set in order to project Song Lyrics onto the monitor. Set a
domestic TV to operate in AV mode.
The WK2 is set to communicate with the European Video standard (PAL). For the U.S.A.,
the Video standard must be set to NTSC (see the EDIT/MIDI chapter).
HEADPHONES
Two headphones jacks are available on the back panel of the instrument which accept a
standard pair of stereo headphones.
Plugging the headphones into the left HEADPHONES jack excludes the internal speakers
to allow private listening. The right headphones jack does not exclude the internal speaker
system if used.
MUSIC STAND
WK2 is supplied with a music stand which is attached by inserting it into appropriate holes
on the rear panel.
N.B. A different stand can be adapted to the double holes.
