fig.00-10
1.
Connect a microphone (sold separately) to the Mic In
jack on the lower-right area of the instrument.
2.
Rotate the [Mic Volume] knob in front of the Mic In
jack to adjust the volume level for the microphone.
3.
Rotate the [Mic Echo] knob to adjust the echo level
(KR-5).
The KR-7 does not feature an [Mic Echo] knob. When
you want to adjust the mic echo on the KR-7, refer to
“Adjusting the Echo (Echo)” (p. 38).
Some Notes on Using a Microphone
• Be careful of high volume levels when using mikes late
at night or early in the morning.
• When connecting a microphone to the KR-7, be sure to
lower the volume. If the volume control is too high when
the microphone is plugged in, noise may be produced by
the speakers.
• Howling could be produced depending on the location
of microphones relative to speakers. This can be
remedied by:
- Changing the orientation of the microphone.
- Relocating microphone at a greater distance from
speakers.
- Lowering volume levels.
Connecting an External
Display (KR-7)
You can connect a computer monitor or other such external
display to the instrument, and display scores and lyrics on
the larger screen, and display whatever images as you like.
For more about the external display settings, refer to
“Changing the Settings for Showing Images with the
External Display (External Display) (KR-7)” (p. 153). For
more on displaying images, refer to “Selecting Images To Be
Shown on the KR-7 and External Displays (User Image
Display) (KR-7)” (p. 154).
