Getting Ready to Play

Preparing the Music Stand

Power Supply

Either an AC adaptor or batteries can be used to power this Digital Keyboard. Normally, use of AC adaptor power is recommended.

•The AC adaptor does not come with this Digital Keyboard. Purchase it separately from your retailer. See page E-1 for information about options.

Using the AC Adaptor

Make sure that you use only the AC adaptor specified for this Digital Keyboard. Use of a different type of AC adaptor can cause malfunction.

Specified AC Adaptor: AD-E95100L

(JEITA Standard plug)

Household power outlet		DC 9.5V terminal

AC adaptor

•Be sure to turn off Digital Keyboard power before connecting or disconnecting the AC adaptor.

•The AC adaptor will become warm to the touch after very long use. This is normal and does not indicate malfunction.

•To prevent breaking of the wire, take care to avoid putting any type of load on the power cord.

No bending!

No winding!

•Never insert metal, pencils, or any other objects into the product’s 9.5V DC terminal. Doing so creates the risk of accident.

Using Batteries

•Be sure to turn off power before loading batteries.

•It is up to you to prepare six commercially available AA-size batteries. Do not use oxyride batteries or any other nickel based batteries.

1.Open the battery cover on the bottom of the Digital Keyboard.

2.Load six AA-size batteries into the battery compartment.

Make sure the positive + and negative - ends of the batteries are facing as shown in the illustration.

3.Insert the tabs of the battery cover into the holes on the side of the battery compartment, and close the cover.

•Turning off the Digital Keyboard power causes all current settings and sampled sounds (page E-12) to be cleared. The Digital Keyboard will revert to initial default settings the next time you turn it on.

Auto Power Off

If you do not perform any operation on the Digital Keyboard for one of the trigger times noted below, Auto Power Off will turn off power.

During battery operation	:	6 minutes
During AC adaptor operation :		30 minutes

■ Disabling Auto Power Off

You can disable Auto Power Off to ensure that power is not turned off automatically during a concert, etc.

1.While holding down bn(TONE), turn on power.

Auto Power Off will be disabled.

Power On Alert (Using the AC Adaptor)

While you are using the AC adaptor for power, the keyboard keys will light to remind you that power is on if you do not perform any operation for about six minutes. Power on alert is disabled while batteries are being used for power.

■ Disabling Power On Alert

You can disable power on alert to ensure that keyboard keys do not light during a concert, etc.

Playing the Digital Keyboard

Using Headphones

Using headphones cuts off output from the built-in speakers, which means you can practice playing even late at night without disturbing others.

•Be sure to turn down the volume level before connecting headphones.

PHONES/OUTPUT jack

•Headphones do not come with the Digital Keyboard.

•Use commercially available headphones. See page E-1 for information about options.

•Do not listen to very high volume output over headphones for long period. Doing so creates the risk of hearing damage.

•If you are using headphones that require an adaptor plug, make sure you do not leave the adaptor plugged in when removing the headphones.

Changing Keyboard Response to Touch Pressure (Touch Response) (LK-240/LK-247 only)

Touch Response alters tone volume in accordance with keyboard pressure (speed). This provides you some of the same expressivity you get on an acoustic piano.

Pressing fast produces louder notes.

Pressing slowly produces softer notes.

Do not try to use too much pressure.

Changing Touch Response Sensitivity

Use the procedure below to control how much the volume of played notes change in accordance with playing speed. Select the setting that best matches your playing style.

1.Press 3(FUNCTION) a number of times until “Touch” appears on the display (page E-4).

2.Use the bq(10-key) [–] and [+] keys to select the transpose setting you want.

Fine Tuning (Tuning)

Use the tuning feature when you need to adjust the pitch slightly to play along with another musical instrument. Also, some artists perform their music with slightly altered tuning. You can use the tuning feature to adjust tuning so it exactly matches a performance on a CD.

•The tuning feature specifies the frequency of the A4 note. You can set a frequency within the range of 415.5 to 465.9 Hz. The initial default setting is 440.0 Hz.

1.Press 3(FUNCTION) a number of times until “Tune” appears on the display (page E-4).

T u n e

2.Use the bq(10-key) [–] and [+] keys to adjust the tuning.

•Performing this step causes the display to change from “Tune” to a value that indicates the current frequency setting as shown below. You can change the frequency in 0.1Hz steps.

4 4 0 . 0 H z

•Even if you do not perform a bq(10-key) operation to adjust the tuning, the current frequency setting will appear automatically after a few seconds.

Sampling a Sound and Playing It on the Keyboard (Sampling)

You can use the Digital Keyboard to sample a sound from a microphone, and then play the sound with the keyboard keys or voice pads. For example, you could sample the bark of your dog and then use the sound in a melody. The sampling feature is a great way to create new sounds that are highly creative.

Connection

Connect a microphone.

MIC IN/SAMPLING jack

•Use of a commercially available microphone also is supported.

•Turn off the microphone and the Digital Keyboard before connecting them.

•It will take a few seconds before you can use the microphone after you turn on the Digital Keyboard.

•Sampled sounds are recorded in monaural.

•You cannot sample sounds input from through the AUDIO IN jack.

Sampling a Sound and Playing It

There are two sampling methods: full sampling and short sampling.

■ Full Sampling

This method allows sampling of a single sound with a duration of one second.

1.Turn the volume levels of the Digital Keyboard down.

2.Turn on the microphone and then the Digital Keyboard.

3.Use dm(MIC VOLUME) to adjust the volume level of microphone input.
