GLOBAL VELOCITY CURVE: This VELOCITY CURVE setting is a global one, meaning it affects
the dynamic response of the entire keyboard across all (4) zones. There are 8 global settings

to choose from. Again, these setting are accessed while in the EDIT mode.

SUSTAIN PEDAL: The Studio Logic SL-880 has a connection jack on the rear panel for a
SUSTAIN PEDAL input. The VP-26 by Fatar is recommended.

VOLUME PEDAL: The Studio Logic SL-880 has a connection jack on the rear panel for a stan-
dard VOLUME PEDAL input.

POWER INPUT: The Studio Logic SL-880 has a connection jack on the rear panel for the sup-
plied POWER SUPPLY input.

MEMORY STORAGE: The Studio Logic SL-880 will remember all of your preset information when
powered down. All programmed settings are transmitted when the unit is powered up. There
is no need to store edited information, simply exiting the edit mode causes the information

to be stored.

SECTIONS.

Rear Panel Connections and Features:
Powering up. Connecting Pedals and hooking up with your other gear.

POWER INPUT

The Studio Logic SL-880 has a connection jack on the rear panel for the AC POWER SUPPLY
INPUT. The AC adapter POWER SUPPLY supplied with this unit is a positive tip &V DC with a
minimum current of 200 mA.

POWER SWITCH

The Studio Logic SL-880 has its POWER SWITCH located on the back panel next to the POWER
SUPPLY INPUT. There is also a red LED to indicate the unit is on. Upon powering up the key-

board all preset data is transmitted out through the MIDI OUT connections.

SUSTAIN PEDAL

The Studio Logic SL-880 has a connection jack on the rear panel for a SUSTAIN PEDAL input.
This jack will function properly with either type of "normally closed" or "normally open"
SUSTAIN PEDALS. Upon powering up the Studio Logic SL-880 will recognize whichever type of

pedal is presently connected to the keyboard, regardless of polarity (e.g. PS100 or VFP1). Note:

SUSTAIN PEDAL must be plugged in prior to powering up to properly sense polarity.

VOLUME PEDAL

The Studio Logic SL-880 has a connection jack on the rear panel for a standard VOLUME PEDAL
input that uses a stereo or balanced jack (e.g. VP-26 by Fatar). This volume control will chan-
ge the volume equally across all three ZONES simultaneously.
