2. Sing into the microphone, or play your guitar, and look
at the SIGNAL LED:
• if it is always green, you should increase the input level
by routing the corresponding GAIN knob next to the
INPUT.
• if it is often orange, it is a little low, but it’s ok.
• if it is rarely red, you have found the optimal level.
• if it goes to red too often, you should lower the gain a
little, until the LED goes to red only rarely, during signal
peaks.
3. Raise the MASTER VOLUME again, and keep it at a
comfortable level.
4. Adjust the INPUT’s volume using the “In1 Vol(ume)”
and “In2 Vol(ume)” parameters of the Global mode (see
page 16-7). Set the other parameters in the relevant Glo-
bal pages. (See “Page 14 - Audio Input Configuration”
on page 16-7, and following).
5. You can further adjust the input volume using the Audio
In parameter on the main page of the Style Play (see “D
(Audio In)” on page 9-3) and Song Play (see “D (Audio
In)” on page 11-4) modes.
MIDI CONNECTIONS
You can play the internal sounds of your Pa80 with an exter-
nal controller, i.e. a master keyboard, a MIDI guitar, a wind
controller, a MIDI accordion, or a digital piano.
1. Connect a standard MIDI cable from the MIDI OUT of
your controller to the MIDI IN connector on the Pa80.
2. Select a transmission MIDI channel on your controller.
Some controllers, like the MIDI accordions, usually
transmit on more than one channel (see more informa-
tion in the MIDI chapter).
3. On the Pa80, select the MIDI Setup that best fit your
controllers type (see “Page 5 - MIDI Setup” on page 16-
3).
DAMPER PEDAL
Connect a Damper (Sustain) pedal to the DAMPER connec-
tor on the back panel. Use a KORG PS1, PS2 or DS1H foot-
switch pedal, or a compatible one. To switch the Damper
polarity, see “Damper Pol. (Damper Polarity)” on page 16-3
DEMO
Listen to the built-in Demo Songs to appreciate the power of
the Pa80. There are 16 Demo Songs to choose from.
1. Press the STYLE PLAY and SONG PLAY buttons
together. Their LEDs start blinking.
At this point, if you don’t press any other button, all the
Demo Songs will be played back.
2. Choose a page using the PAGE buttons. There are two
different pages in the Demo mode.
3. Select a Demo Song by pressing the corresponding
VOLUME/VALUE button around the display. The
Demo will automatically start.
4. Stop the Demo by pressing START/STOP.
5. Exit the Demo mode by pressing one of the MODE but-
tons.
THE MUSIC STAND
A music stand comes standard with your Pa80. Fit it into the
two dedicated holes in the back panel.
