Startup—the Details
This section walks you through the hookup of your PC3LE. We’ll take a look at the rear panel,
then describe the power, audio, and other cable connections.
Before You Start...
Don’t connect anything until you make sure your PC3LE is properly and safely situated. Also, if
your PC3LE has been out in the cold, give it time to warm up to room temperature before
starting it, since condensation may have formed inside the PC3LE. It is normal for the rear panel
near the MIDI jacks to become warm after a while.
Connecting the Power Cable (Line Cord)
The PC3LE runs on AC power and works with voltages from 90-260 volts at 50–60 Hz. The
voltage level is detected and set automatically by the PC3LE.
As you face the back of the PC3LE, the power connection is at the left. First connect the power
cable to the PC3LE, then plug the power cable into a grounded outlet. If your power source does
not have the standard three-hole outlet, you should take the time to install a proper grounding
system. This will reduce the risk of a shock.
Connecting Audio Cables
Analog
After you’ve turned down the level on your sound system, connect the PC3LE’s analog audio
outputs to your sound system using a pair of stereo or mono audio cables. Mono cables will
always work, but if you’re going into balanced inputs, use stereo cables for a better signal-to-
noise ratio and a bit more volume. The PC3LE’s analog outputs are balanced, and generate a
“hotter” signal than some previous Kurzweil instruments.
Connect one end of each audio cable to your mixing board or PA system inputs, and connect the
other end to the jacks marked Main Left and Right on the rear panel of the PC3LE. If you have
only one input available, use the PC3LE’s Main Left output to get the full signal in mono.
Alternatively, connect a pair of headphones to the headphone out for private listening.
Digital
For digital audio output from the PC3LE, connect a 75-Ohm coaxial cable from the PC3LE’s
RCA Digital Out jack to the AES or S/PDIF input of the receiving device. You may need an
RCA-to-XLR adapter to connect with the receiving device. If the receiving device receives only
optical signals, you’ll need a converter as well. The PC3LE’s S/PDIF output sends digital audio
at a 48 kHz fixed sample rate.
