Roland FA 08 - Phones Jack

Deutsch Français Italiano Español Português NederlandsEnglishEnglish
Ground terminal
Depending on the circumstances of a particular setup, you
may experience a discomforting sensation, or perceive
that the surface feels gritty to the touch when you touch
this device, microphones connected to it, or the metal
portions of other objects, such as guitars. This is due to an
innitesimal electrical charge, which is absolutely harmless.
However, if you are concerned about this, connect the
ground terminal (see gure) with an external ground. When
the unit is grounded, a slight hum may occur, depending
on the particulars of your installation. If you are unsure of
the connection method, contact the nearest Roland Service
Center, or an authorized Roland distributor, as listed on the
“Information” page.
Unsuitable places for connection
• Water pipes (may result in shock or electrocution)
• Gas pipes (may result in re or explosion)
• Telephone-line ground or lightning rod (may be danger-
ous in the event of lightning)
