NOTE:
The 11-pin Leslie socket on your SK PRO allows you to plug directly into any Leslie speaker having an
11-pin interface. Current models include the 2101, 3300, 122XB and 981. However, when plugging the SK
PRO into a single-channel Leslie cabinet such as a 3300, only the Drawbars will sound through the Leslie.
NOTE:
To connect the SK PRO to a Leslie Speaker having a different pin configuration such as an older 6-pin
122 or 147, or a 9-pin cabinet such as the 760, 770 or 900 series cabinets, you will need an adapter kit and/or
Connector Cable. Contact your Hammond Dealer for more information regarding which adapter kit and/or cable
you may need.

Connecting a Foot Switch
You can connect an optional foot switch such as the Hammond model FS-9H foot switch to
your SK PRO. Connect the foot switch plug to one of the jacks marked "FOOT SW" on the
back of the SK PRO.
NOTE:
In order to insure proper operation of the Foot Switch, be sure to connect it when the power to the SK
PRO is “OFF.”
NOTE:
The FOOT SW jack on your SK PRO is “TRS-compatible,” meaning that by using a Stereo “Y”
connector or “splitter,” more than one Foot Switch can be plugged into the same jack. You can also use a TRS
cable to connect a dual-momentary switch to one of the FOOT SW jacks. For a complete explanation of this,
consult the
SPECIAL PERFORMANCE FEATURES
chapter of this Guide.

Connecting a Damper Pedal
To connect a Damper (piano sustain) Pedal, connect the plug from the pedal into the jack marked
"DAMPER" on the back of the SK PRO.
t
Connecting an Expression Pedal
If you wish to use an Expression Pedal, connect the plug from the Expression Pedal into the EXP.PEDAL
jack. The Hammond EXP-50 / EXP-50J Expression Pedals are recommended.
t
Connecting a MIDI Pedalboard
If you wish to use a Hammond MIDI Pedalboard, use a MIDI cable to connect the MIDI OUT port from the
Pedalboard to the MIDI IN port of the SK PRO.
NOTE:
If you are using a Hammond Pedalboard, the MIDI Channel should be set to
3
. The SK PRO is
automatically configured to transmit Pedal MIDI data on MIDI Channel 3. If you need further information, please
consult the Owner’s Manual for your Hammond Pedalboard.
t
Other MIDI Connections
Your SK PRO can interface with a great number of MIDI-compatible devices. See the MIDI chapter of this
Guide for more information about MIDI connections and your Hammond SK PRO.
t
Connecting a Set of Headphones
A stereo headphone jack is provided on the Accessory Panel next to the LINE OUT jacks so that you may
play or practice in privacy. Connect the plug from a set of stereo Headphones into the Headphone jack.
NOTE:
Be sure that your headphone set has either a ¼” plug or an adapter for a ¼” plug.
