Connection with an external amplification
To amplify the SP-200, connect the OUTPUTs to a high-quality mixer, stereo hi-fi,
or a couple of active monitors. When using a stereo hi-fi, connect the OUTPUTs to
the AUX or TAPE inputs (never use the PHONO inputs). For mono amplification,
connect only the L/MONO output.
Using the headphones
For playing or practicing during night hours, or when you don't want to be heard by
others in the same room, connect a pair of high-quality headphones (32Ω imped-
ance suggested) to the appropriate connector on the rear panel. This connector is a
standard 1/4" phone jack. If your headphones have a mini-jack adapter, grasp the
adapter when plugging in or out the headphones.
If you need to connect two sets of headphones, please contact your Korg reseller to
ask for one of the many headphones distributors available on the market.
Warning: When using headphones, protect your hearing by avoiding extended lis-
tening at high volumes.
Turning the instrument on
Insert the DC plug of the supplied AC adapter into the DC inlet of the SP-200, and
then connect the AC plug to a wall socket; then press the POWER switch. When the
instrument is on, the LEDs on the control panel will light up. To turn the instrument
off, press the POWER switch again.
Note: When the instrument is turned off, all parameters are reset.
