Introduction
fig.codef.eps
The Prelude contains an internal amplification system but can
also be connected to audio equipment such as a monitor
speaker or a stereo set, or use headphones.
You can record your playing (or a song recorded on the
Prelude) onto an audio recording device. Connect the OUTPUT
jacks on the Prelude’s rear panel to the input jacks of your
external device.
The internal speakers are switched off when you connect one
or two pairs of headphones.
Connecting a pedal and switch
You must switch off the Prelude’s power before you connect a
pedal and/or switch.
Connect a separately available pedal switch (Roland DP
Series) to the HOLD PEDAL jack on the rear panel. You can
use this pedal switch to sustain notes even after taking your
hands off the keyboard.
Connect a separately available pedal switch (Roland DP
Series), a separately available foot switch (Boss FS-5U) or
separately available expression pedal (Roland EV-5) to the
rear panel CONTROL PEDAL jack. You can use this to control
various functions that you assign (p. 36).
Use only the specified expression pedal (EV-5; sold
separately). By connecting any other expression pedals, you
risk causing malfunction and/or damage to the unit.
Connecting an audio player to the
EXT INPUT jack
You can connect an MP3 player or other audio device to the
Prelude’s EXT INPUT jack, and listen to the playback.
“Input settings for the EXT INPUT jack” (p. 18)
Turning the power on
Once the connections have been completed (p. 14), 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 damage to speakers and other devices.
1. Before you turn on the power, turn the [VOLUME] knob all
the way to the left to minimize the volume.
2. Press the rear panel [POWER] switch to turn on the power.
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.
If the Prelude is connected to a keyboard amp or audio amp,
turn on the power of the Prelude first, and then switch on your
amp.
3.
Turn the [VOLUME] knob to adjust the volume of the
Prelude.
Turning the power off
1. Before you turn off the power, turn the [VOLUME] knob all
the way to the left to minimize the volume.
