manual abstract
This way you will avoid causing shorts, or damage to the cable's internal elements. • A small amount of heat will radiate from the unit during normal operation. • To avoid disturbing your neighbors, try to keep the unit's volume at reasonable levels. You may prefer to use headphones, so you do not need to be concerned about those around you (especially when it is late at night). • When you need to transport the unit, package it in the box (including padding) that it came in, if possible. Otherwise, you will need to use equivalent packaging materials. PANEL DESCRIPTIONS 7 JACKS 1. Input Jacks These jacks are for connecting your keyboard(s). For a stereo output, make connections to both the L and R jacks of one pair. For mono output, connect the keyboard to the L (MONO) jack of a pair. * The volume of a mono connection will be louder than that of a stereo connection; this is normal. 2. PHONES Jack Connect a set of stereo headphones to this jack. * Before headphones are connected, be sure to set the volume [10] for the PHONES Section to "0." 4 * The amplifier's speakers work even when headphones are connected. 3. STEREO LINK OUT Jack Connect this jack to the STEREO LINK IN jack on a second KC-500 when you wish to have true stereo output. When a cable is connected to the STEREO LINK OUT jack, the right-channel input signals are output from the internal speakers. The left-channel input signals are output from the OUT jack to the other KC-500. * For details on the Stereo Link function, take a look at "CONNECTIONS AND POWERUP" (p. 6). 4. STEREO LINK IN Jack Connect this jack to the STEREO LINK OUT jack on the main unit (the other KC-500) when a true stereo output is required. Left-channel input signals are output from the internal speakers. * For details on the Stereo Link function, take a look at "CONNECTIONS AND POWERUP" (p. 6). 5. Line Out Jacks (1/4" and XLRs) Connect a mixer or recording device to either (or both) of these pairs of outputs. CONTROL PANEL 6. POWER Switch This switches the amplifier on and off. * When turning the power on or off, be sure that the volume levels ([8], [10], [14], and [15]) for all Sections are set to ”0." * This unit is equipped with a protection circuit. A brief interval (a few seconds) after power up is required before the unit will operate normally. 7. Pilot Lamp This indicator lights when the unit is turned on. CHANNEL CONTROL Section 8. Volume Knobs Each of the four knobs is used to set the volume for the corresponding channel. Rotating a knob clockwise increases the volume. * Channel 3 doubles as a microphone input. 9. OUTPUT SELECT Knob This knob allows you to select the output destination for signals input to Channel 4. 0 : Select this position when you wish to listen to synchronization signals or a drum machine (for example) through headphones, without output to the internal or any external speakers. A : Output is through the headphones and the internal speakers. No signals are output to Line Out. This can be a handy function when you want to use the amplifier as a monitor speaker during a live performance. B : Output is through the headphones, the internal speakers, and Line Out. Select this position when you want to connect a keyboard and use Channel 4 equally with other channels. PHONES Section 10. Volume Knob This knob adjusts the headphone volume. * The four knobs ([11], [12], [13], and [14]) in the MASTER CONTROL Section do not affect the headphone output. MASTER CONTROL Section These knobs adjust the output from the internal speakers. * The signal output is mono. 11. LOW Knob This knob cuts or boosts the low frequencies. Frequencies in this range are unaffected when the knob is set to "0." 12. MIDDLE Knob This knob cuts or boosts the midrange frequencies. Frequencies in this range are unaffected when the knob is set to "0." 13. HIGH Knob This knob cuts or boosts the upper frequencies. Frequencies in this range are unaffected when the knob is set to "0." 14. VOLUME Knob This knob adjusts the overall volume of the KC-500. LINE OUT Section 15. Level Knob This knob adjusts the Line Out level. Set this knob to the optimum level for the instrument connected to the Line Out jacks (1/4" or XLR). ATTACHING AND REMOVING THE CASTERS You can attach or remove casters as shown in the following figure. o Be sure to remove all casters when accidental movement may be dangerous such as when setting up the KC-500 on stage or when transporting it in a vehicle. Attaching all of the casters can make it easier to move the amplifier. You can use the KC-500 as a floor monitor by removing the two wheels on the rear-panel side and setting the amplifier at an angle. (Be sure it remains stable when you do so.) 5 Once the connections have been completed, turn on power to your various devices in the order specified. By turning on devices in the wrong order, you risk causing malfunction and/or ciamage to speakers and other devices....
