Traynor Keymaster K1
200w, 10 inch Woofer / 2.5 inch HF Driver
Today, keyboard players, acoustic guitarists, and other musicians need the ability to travel light. More importantly they require amplification that maintains the highest standards of fidelity, versatility and reliability. The K1 answers those requirements and more.
The K1 is a linear mixing and amplification system built into a versatile combo-style enclosure. What this means to the pro user is that you can take your K1 anywhere and do a number of things a PA system would permit. While the K1 is not meant as a replacement for a full PA-system, it can be used as one if the venue is small. With the K1 used as a micro PA your system fits in a subcompact car with room left for a keyboard, a mic, a stand, a guitar and more.
Traynor’s legendary reliability is a good base on which to build anything. In this case, an advanced, compact system with features and performance aimed primarily at keyboard usage. The K1 offers four inputs; one which accepts a mono or stereo keyboard output, one which accepts a dynamic microphone or acoustic-electric guitar, one which accepts any line-level signal, perhaps from a PA mixer, and another which accepts a CD player or other stereo program source – even a DSP outboard guitar preamp like a *Pod®.
Fully connected, your K1 can
• Blend up to four audio sources into a single mono mix-down.
• Supply 120 Watts of smooth, efficient bi-amped power in a two-way speaker system.
• Feed your mixed, mono signal to a house PA or recording desk – fully balanced.
• Help you record, or practice silently with headphones (in stereo, if the keyboard is stereo).
• Supply a stereo Link signal to another K1 if you want stereo sound onstage.
• Be set up anywhere. The K1 has a speaker stand built-in and can fit neatly under a keyboard stand or can face you onstage as a monitor.
• Provide clear, accurate performance for years to come.
We at Traynor thank you for choosing the K1 amplifier.

1. Input
There are two ¼-inch inputs, marked L/Mono and R. If you are connecting a stereo keyboard, or other stereo source to channel 1, connect its left and right outputs here using either balanced or unbalanced patch cables. If the keyboard or other audio source has a mono output, plug it into the L/Mono jack.
Note: The K1 is a mono amplifier, however when left and right stereo signals are plugged into channel 1’s L/Mono and R jacks, they remain in stereo throughout the preamp while they are mixed with the other channel signals. This way the Stereo Phones and Link Out jacks receive stereo signals. Only those signals internally routed to the Bal. Line Out and amp/speaker system are mixed down to mono.
2. Pan
This control regulates Channel 1’s left/right stereo balance going to the Stereo Phones and Link Out jacks. See above Note for details.
3. Gain
The Gain control regulates Channel 1’s volume and mix level with the other channels.
4. Bass and Treble
These controls regulate the low and high-frequency response of Channel 1. The Center setting is neutral. Turn clockwise or counter-clockwise for up to 15 dB of boost or cut. As with all active tone controls, boosting or cutting affects the gain of the channel, hence large adjustments may require re-adjustment of the Gain control.

Channel 2
5. Mic
This female-XLR connector accepts any standard dynamic microphone, low or high impedance.
6. Mono Input
Connect a mono, line or instrument-level source here (balanced or unbalanced). This could include an acoustic/electric guitar with, or without a preamp built-in.
Note: Ideally channel 2 works best with a single source connected either to the Mic or Mono Input however, both inputs can be used at the same time with no problems (the Mic signal has a certain amount of priority to be slightly louder, if the guitar does not have an onboard preamp.
7. Gain
The Gain control regulates Channel 2’s volume and mix-level with the other channels.
8. Bass and Treble
These controls regulate the low and high-frequency response of Channel 2. Center setting is neutral. Turn clockwise or counter-clockwise for up to 15dB of boost or cut. As with all active tone controls, boosting or cutting affects the gain of the channel, hence large adjustments may require re-adjustment of the Gain control.
Channel 3
9. Mon(itor) Input
This input, when used, turns the K1 into a personal stage monitor capable of mixing the rest of the performances with yours through the K1’s amp/speaker system. Connect a balanced or unbalanced patch cable here coming from the line level (not speaker-level) output of a mixer.
Note: This channel’s signal goes directly to the internal amp/speaker system and is not present at the Bal. Line Out, Stereo Phones or Link Out jacks. It is also post-Master, which means it is adjusted independently by its own Gain control, but not the Master.
10. Gain
The Gain control regulates Channel 3’s volume and mix-level with the other channels through the amp/speaker system (see above Note).
Master Section
11. Master Control
This control regulates the overall volume of channels one and two plus the L and R Aux Inputs through the built in amplifier and speakers plus the headphones. It does not regulate the Bal. Line Out on Mon(itor) In.
12. L and R Aux. Inputs
Connect your MP3, CD or tape player to these RCA inputs. Other optional input sources could include a stereo guitar preamp (*Pod®, **Sansamp®, etc.). Aux. input signals go to the Bal. Line Out as well as the Stereo Phones jack, the Link Out jack and of course the internal amp/speaker system.
13. Bal. Line Out
Connect your K1 to the PA or recording mixer with a balanced patch cable plugged in here. The mix from this output is mono thus you only need to connect it to one mixer channel. It is also pre-Master level control (i.e. not controlled by the MASTER) and does not carry any of Channel 3’s signals (See above under Channel 3 Mon(itor) Input).
As with all balanced ¼-inch connectors, the TRS (stereo) plug connections are; Tip = “+”, Ring = “-“ and Sleeve = ground. Also, see Note 1 under Link Out.

14. Stereo Phones
Link Link
K1 Amp Left K1 Amp Right
Connect your headphones here. The mix will have stereo separation on the Channel 1 L/Mono and R signals (when a stereo source is connected there) and Aux Input signals. Channel 2 mono signals will be sent to both L and R headphones as will the Channel 1 L/Mono (only) signal. As mentioned earlier, Channel 3 will not be present. To permit silent practicing or recording, the amp/speaker system will be disconnected while the Stereo Phones jack is in use.
Note: The signal from the Mon(itor) goes directly to the internal amp/speaker system and is not present at the Bal. Line Out, Stereo Phones or Link Out jacks. It will not be muted or heard through the Stereo Phones jack!
15. Link Connectors
The Link jacks allow you to connect two K1s together to create a true stereo system which also becomes able to accept additional instruments and/or other sources via the second amp. Everything will be mixed through both K1s, effectively giving you a six-channel stereo monitor system. In this case either amp’s Bal Line Out may be connected to the mixer for PA or recording purposes. The Channel 3 Mon(itor) inputs will not be Linked as they go directly to their respective amp/speaker systems, however this does mean that you can possibly have the mixer’s main mix going to one K1’s amp and speakers and something else – perhaps the mixer’s monitor mix or a click track - going to the other’s.
Note: The LINK feature only works with K1s. Only two (2) K1s can be Linked. To connect additional K1s or powered monitors, use the Bal. Line Out on one K1 and patch it to an input on the powered monitor, another K1, a power amp driving monitors, etc.
Link Out > Link In
Using a TRS to TRS patch cable (male stereo ¼-inch to male stereo ¼-inch) connect this jack to the Link In jack on another K1 for stereo separation onstage. This output represents all the mono channel signals (except Channel 3) plus the right (only) signals from the Channel 1 R and Aux R inputs. Therefore, when two K1s are Linked together, only left channel stereo signals will come out of the primary K1’s speakers with the right channel coming out the Linked K1’s speakers – mono signals come out both.
