DC IN Jack

 

Connect the supplied AC adaptor to this jack.

To prevent the inadvertent disruption of power to 
your unit (should the plug be pulled out acciden-
tally), and to avoid applying undue stress to the 
AC adaptor jack, anchor the power cord using the 
cord hook, as shown in the illustration.

 

7.

 

OCT SHIFT (Octave Shift) Switch

 

When the PK-7A is connected to an external MIDI device other than a VK-88 or VK-8, 
this switch allows you to transpose the pitch in octave units to match that of the connect-
ed device (p. 12).

 

8.

 

MIDI CH (MIDI Channel Switching) Knob

 

This knob allows you to match the MIDI channel settings with other equipment when 
the PK-7A is connected to an external MIDI device other than a VK-88 or VK-8 (p. 12).

 

9.

 

PK OUT Connector

 

Use the PK cable that is supplied with the VK-88 to connect this connector to the VK-88. 
After connecting to the VK-88, make sure to set the PEDAL KEYBOARD [SELECT] 
switch on the VK-88’s rear panel to PK IN (VK-88 Owner’s Manual, p. 22).

 

Do not attempt to use any cable other than the PK cable, since this will cause malfunctions. This connector 
cannot be used with the VK-8.

 

10.

 

MIDI Connectors

 

Connect a VK-8 or external MIDI device here.
Use a MIDI cable (sold separately) to make the connections.

 

11.

 

HOLD OUT (Hold Pedal output) Jack

 

This jack outputs the on/off data from the hold pedal.
Use a monaural cable (phone-phone) (sold separately) to make the connections.

 

If a cable is connected to this jack, Hold data will not be sent from the PK OUT connector or the MIDI 
OUT connector.

 

12.

 

EXPRESSION OUT (Expression pedal output) Jack

 

This jack outputs the data from the expression pedal.
Use a stereo cable (phone-phone) (sold separately) to make the connections.

 

The expression pedal is designed only for Roland/Boss products. Connecting it to products made by 
manufacturers other than Roland or Boss may cause malfunctions.

If a cable is connected to this jack, Expression data will not be output from the PK OUT connector or 
MIDI OUT connector.

 

13.

 

FOOT SW-L OUT/FOOT SW-R OUT (Foot switch L output /Foot switch 
R output) Jacks

 

These jacks output on/off data from the foot switches.
Use a monaural cable (phone-phone) (sold separately) to make the connections.

 

If a cable is connected to these jacks, on/off data from the foot switches will not be output from the PK OUT 
connector or the MIDI OUT connector.
