Turning on the Instrument (Power)

The RE-110 operates on AC adapter power. A power cord is included with the AC adapter to

connect it to an AC outlet. Before connecting the power cord, be sure that the power switch,

located left side of the keyboard, is off. First plug the adapter's small, round plug in the

matching jack in the back of the piano. Then plug the power cord into an AC outlet. Once the

power cord is connected, you can turn the power switch on.

Setting the Volume

To be sure that you can hear the instrument, turn the Volume knob (on the upper side of the

left panel) to the middle of its range. This should be a reasonably comfortable level of volume

which you can adjust if you wish the sound to be louder or softer.

REVERB & CHORUS

Reverb

"Wet/dry mix" is a term that describes how loud the effect sound (wet sound = reverberation
or chorus) is compared to the direct sound (dry sound = played notes). A ratio of 10% for
example will be mostly direct sound with very little effect sound. A ratio of 50% will be about
half and half while 90% will be nearly all effect sound.

Adjust the reverb wet/dry amount for the selected reverb type by pressing one of the C4 ~ A#4
keys while holding down the

Voice

button. The wet/dry mix range is from 0 to 100%. The

default reverb type and wet/dry amount are Room and 10% respectively.

The MIDI channels of the receiving and transmitting equipment must be matched for proper
data transfer. This function enables you to specify the channel on which the RE-110 transmit
and receives MIDI data.

While holding down the

Function

button, press one of the C4 ~ D#5 keys to set the desired
MIDI receive channel. And press one of the C6 ~ D#7 keys to set the desired MIDI transmit
channel. See Page 22 for more about your RE-110's MIDI features.

Notes transmited are the actual keyboard keys pressed irrespective of splitting, transposition,
and octave shift. Notes recieved are treated just like keypresses and may be modified by the
current split, transpose, and octave shift settings.

Program Changes recieved will only affect the current Upper Voice if the keyboard split is
active.

MIDI RECEIVE AND TRANSMIT CHANNEL

20

Function Button

Local Control is the connection between the keyboard of the RE-110 and the internal sound­producing circuitry of the instrument. Normally, Local Control is ON; in fact, every time you
power-up the RE-110, it automatically sets to Local Control ON, so you can play the keyboard
and hear the sounds of the instrument. But, there are reasons for setting Local Control to OFF
especially when MIDI Out of the RE-110 is connected to feed back to the instrument's MIDI
In port. One example of this is when using an external sequencer whose MIDI In port is
connected to MIDI Out of the RE-110 and whose MIDI Out port is connected to MIDI In of
the RE-110. In such a case, you can eliminate the
doubling of notes by setting Local Control to OFF.

While holding down the

Function

button, press

Pedals

SUSTAIN PEDAL

The sustain pedal (rightmost pedal) functions in the same way as the damper

pedal of an acoustic piano. When the sustain pedal is pressed, notes

continue to play after their keys have been released. Releasing the pedal will

silence the sustained notes.

SOSTENUTO PEDAL

If you play a note on the keyboard and press the sostenuto pedal while the

notes are held, those notes will still sustain as long as you hold the pedal.

But all subsequently played notes will not be sustained.

SOFT PEDAL

The soft pedal reduces the volume while the pedal is pressed. The soft pedal

will not affect notes that are already playing when it pressed.

MIIDI

"MIDI" stands for "Musical Instrument Digital Interface." It is an international standard that

allows electronic musical instruments to communicate with each other, using a simple cable

connection. It ensures that the RE-110 will remain compatible with the instruments of today

and tomorrow.

MIDI Connection

On the rear panel are two MIDI ports:

󳢯 MIDI In receives MIDI messages

from

other equipment.

󳢯 MIDI Out sends MIDI messages toother equipment.

MIDI cables provide the connection between the MIDI ports of one piece of equipment and

those of another. To keep things simple, there are only two valid MIDI connections: Out to In,

In to Out.

The simplest use of MIDI is to play two instruments at a time from the keyboard of one of

them. This is known as a "Master-Slave" connection. Use a MIDI cable to connect the MIDI

Out port of the "Master" (the instrument whose keyboard you'll play) to the MIDI In port of

the "Slave".

If you connect In to Out, rather than Out to In, the other instrument becomes the Master. And

if you use two cables, connecting In to Out, Out to In, you can use either instrument as the

Master.

You probably will want to use the RE-110 as your master keyboard. It is important to explain

that what is sent over the MIDI cables is information (data), not sound. In fact, the usefulness

of the master-slave setup lies in having each instrument produce a different sound, resulting in

a layering of sounds that expands on the layering that is possible with the RE-110 itself.

The slave can be a MIDI organ, portable keyboard, synthesizer, tone module, drum machine,

or effects device. If it doesn't have built-in amplification and speakers, connect its audio output

to the RE-110 Audio In jacks on the RE-110 rear panel.

MIDI

23

MIIDI

Another application of MIDI is in using a sequencer to record and play back your

performance. An external sequencer can be a special hardware unit designed for that purpose,

or it can be a PC running special sequencing software. In either use, the MIDI connections are

the same - Out to In, In to Out.

MIDI Channels

For MIDI to control several instruments, each playing a different part at the same time, it relies

on different

channels

. MIDI channels are like TV channels: an instrument has to be "tuned" to

the correct one or it won't receive what is being transmitted. There are 16 channels available,

and each one can transmit any number of notes to any number of instruments, over the same

MIDI cable.

HEADPHONES

A headphone jack allows private practice. Plugging in a

pair headphones turns off the speakers. You can also

insert a "dummy" stereo headphone adapter. This is

useful if you want to mute the internal speaker system

while using a more powerful external amplification

system connected to Audio out jack. There are two

identical headphone jacks on the RE-110.

AUDIO IN JACK

The Audio In jacks allow you to play along with a tape, CD player or to have an external tone

module connected to the RE-110 audio system. It is best to use a tone module, tape or CD

player that has its own output volume control because the volume control of the RE-110 does

not affect the signal coming from the Audio In jacks.

AUDIO OUT JACK

The Audio Out jack is used to boost the sound level coming from the piano by hooking it to

external amplifier and speaker systems. It can also be connected to an audio recorder to

preserve your performance. The RE-110's volume control also affects the signal at the Audio

Out jacks. If you wish to silence the RE-110's speakers while using the Audio Out jacks, plug

a pair of headphones into either Headphone jack.
