 |
|
Hello, i recently bought the Korg PA700 and waiting it to arrive at my place, i'm just wondering 1 thing about the keyboard.
The thing i wonder is the audio out at the back of the keyboard, it only shows left and right. Do i need 2 Jack to connect to a PA System to make it stereo? or it can be toggle inside the keyboard?
I have read the manual of the keyboard that is found at the internet. But i still dont understand  . So please if anyone can explain to me about how to connect the keyboard to a PA system, it will be very helpful to me  |

| You can use the left or right output for mono. |

It sounds like there are a couple of different things here...
When running into a mono input (to a mixer or whatever), usually running the signal out of the Left jack will sum both channels to mono. Some keyboards specifically state on the jack labels which one will be for mono. The PA700 does not have this designation. Some people also just use the right output because it lessens the bass sounds for piano sounds and makes them less muddy.
If I have to run mono when using my PA700, I normally just use the Left jack.
Your comment above states that you have a jack (assuming a cable) and a stereo PA system. Is the board just out of inputs that causes you not to run in stereo? If so, see if there is another channel that could work in mono and make your inputs stereo. If you have a stereo input on the mixer (like an 1/8" jack for an MP3 player or something), you could buy a 1/4" Stereo to 1/8" Stereo cable and then you would be in stereo on the mixer. You may also be able to use the Tape input if the mixer has one. They are usually RCA jacks and getting a dual 1/4" to RCA cable (two jacks on each side) would also work, but the sound person would know that they need to raise the tape level to the mains to increase your volume.
Another question... Are you using another keyboard in addition to the PA700? If so, you can plug that other keyboard into the stereo inputs on the PA700, allowing you to run both signals (the external board and the PA700 itself) from the PA700.
Grace,
Harry
