Headphone Jacks
A headphone jack allows private practice. Plugging in a pair headphones turns off the speakers.
You can also insert a "dummy" stereo headphone adapter. This is useful if you want to mute the
internal speaker system while using a more powerful external amplification system connected to
the Audio Out Jack. There are two identical headphone jacks on the RE-220.

MIDI Ports
The functions of the two MIDI ports are discussed on page 39.
Audio In Jack
The audio input jack allows you to play a tape or CD player, or to have an external MIDI tone
module connected to the RE-220 audio system. The connector is a 1/4" stereo TRS (Tip-Ring-
Sleeve), with the Left channel connected to Tip and the Right channel connected to Ring. It is best
to use a tone module, tape or CD player that has its own output volume control. The RE-220's
volume and tone controls also affect the signal coming from the audio in jack, but the reverb and
effects settings do not.
Audio Out Jack
The audio output jack is used to boost the sound level coming from the piano by connecting it to
external amplifier and speaker systems. It can also be connected to an audio recorder to preserve
your performance. The connector is a 1/4" stereo TRS (Tip-Ring-Sleeve), with the Left channel
connected to Tip and the Right channel connected to Ring.
