button and press the “OK” button.

When you play your keyboard, the channel 5 and 6 level meters will
move.

knobs so that the level is as high as possible without allowing the
level meters to reach “CLP” when you play your keyboard most
loudly.

Set the input level by turning the [TRIM] knob so that the peak indi-
cator (the LED near the [TRIM] knob) lights when the volume is
loudest.

Check the sound

2. In the [SOLO/MONITOR] “Monitor” tab page, make sure that the

“MasterLR” button is “On.”

3. While playing your keyboard, slowly raise the [MASTER] fader.

You will hear the sound through your headphones or monitor speak-
ers.
