MIDI IN, THRU and OUT Connectors
......................................................................................................................
The MIDI IN connector receives MIDI data from an external
MIDI device (such as a MIDI sequencer) which can be used to
control the PSR-6000. The MIDI THRU connector re-transmits any
data received at the MIDI IN connector, allowing “chaining” of
several MIDI instruments or other devices. The MIDI OUT connec-
tor transmits MIDI data generated by the PSR-6000 (e.g. note and
velocity data produced by playing the keyboard). More details on
MIDI are provided on page 102.

FOOT CONTROLLER Jack

An optional Yamaha FC7 Foot Controller can be connected to this
jack to allow foot expression (swell) or effect control. Please note
that when the foot controller is used for expression control, no sound
will be produced if it is set to the minimum position.

SUSTAIN Jack
.................................................................................................................................................................................
An optional FC5 footswitch can be connected here for foot
sustain control. The footswitch functions like the damper pedal on a
piano — press for sustain, release for normal sound.
