Quick Start
Setting Up the PC4
1. If your PC4 has been out in the cold during shipping, give it time to warm up to room temperature before powering it on, since condensation may have formed inside.
2. Place the PC4 on a keyboard stand or on a hard, at, level surface.
3. Connect the DC power adaptor to the PC4 DC Power jack.
4. Make sure your power outlet is compatible with the included power adaptor, then plug the power cable into the power outlet.
5. Plug the included Switch Pedal into the SW1 (SUSTAIN) jack on the PC4 rear panel.
6. If you have an additional switch pedal, plug it into the SW2 jack for Sostenuto control.
7. If you have a MIDI CC pedal (also known as a MIDI expression or volume pedal), plug it into the CC1 (VOLUME) jack for volume control.
8. If you are using speakers, turn the master volume all the way down on your amplier or mixer. Using standard (1/4-inch) audio cables, rst plug into the input jacks of your amplier or mixer, then plug the other end of the cables into the PC4 AUDIO OUT A jacks. (Connecting in this order minimizes the possibility of static discharge damage.) For a mono signal, only use the LEFT (MONO) A jack, and leave the RIGHT A jack unplugged. Balanced (“TRS” or “Stereo”) cables are recommended if your mixer or amp supports balanced inputs.
9. If you are using headphones, connect stereo headphones to the headphone jack on the rear panel.
10. Move the PC4 VOLUME slider (on the far left side of the front panel) to the minimum (closer to the keys).

Powering On the PC4
1. Power on the PC4 by pressing the POWER button on the right rear panel.
2. If you are using speakers, turn up the volume on your amplier or mixer.
3. Slowly turn up the PC4 VOLUME Slider and play some notes to check the volume level. (If you have a CC pedal plugged into the CC (VOLUME) jack, make sure it is set to the maximum volume position).
4. If you are using speakers and the PC4 is not loud enough, turn up the volume on your amplier or mixer.
5. If you are using a mixer and hear distortion, reduce the gain level on the mixer, or use the mixer’s Pad button if it has one (a button that typically decreases the audio input level by 20dB).
6. After using the PC4, if you are using speakers, turn the master volume all the way down on your amplier or mixer before powering o the PC4.

Continuous Switch Pedals (Half-Damper)
e SW1 (SUSTAIN) jack is also compatible with continuous switch pedals (Half-Damper) that use a 1/4 inch tip-ring-sleeve plug (such as the Kurzweil KP-1H). When connected to the SW1 (SUSTAIN) jack, a Half Damper pedal enables ner control of Sustain than a standard switch pedal. Half Damper control is enabled for Programs in the Piano category. Programs outside of the Piano category will respond to a Half Damper pedal as if it is a standard switch pedal.
CC1 (VOLUME) and CC2 Jacks
Use the CC1 (VOLUME) jack to connect a MIDI CC pedal (also known as a MIDI expression or volume pedal). By default this pedal is assigned to control Program and Multi volume (pre-FX).
For KB3 Organ Programs, the CC1 (VOLUME) pedal controls organ swell. Organ swell is similar to Program volume, except volume can not be turned all the way down to silence. e LCD display shows “KB3” when a KB3 Program is selected.
For User Programs and Multis, the CC1 (VOLUME) and CC2 pedals can be assigned to dierent functions by using Program Edit or Multi Edit Mode.
11
The Rear Panel
e optional Kurzweil CC-1 continuous control pedal will work best with the PC4, but it is also possible to use third-party continuous control pedals designed for keyboards. Compatible pedals should use a 10 kΩ linear-taper potentiometer, with a 1/4 inch tip-ring­sleeve (stereo) plug with the wiper connected to the tip.
RIBBON Jack
Use the RIBBON jack to plug in the optional Kurzweil Ribbon Controller. By default the ribbon controls pitch bend, but you can also program the ribbon controller to send other MIDI messages. To use the ribbon controller, just press it, and slide your nger along the ribbon to change the value of the message it’s sending.
You can congure the ribbon to have one control section that runs its entire length, or to have three sections of equal length. It sends its highest values when you press it at the end where the cable connects. When you congure it to have three sections, each section sends its highest values at the end closest to the cable.
