Getting Started

ing the top half of the

POWER

switch on the

front panel turns the instrument on. The LED
indicator in the

POWER

switch will remain lit

(red) to show that the instrument is powered on.

NOTE:

Because the player’s entire body inter-

acts with the circuitry at the heart of the there-
min, a properly grounded connection is required
for stable operation.

Main Out

First, plug one end of a 1/4” instrument cable
into the

MAIN OUT

jack on the rear panel. Then

plug the other end into an amplified speaker or
mixing console input.

Phones Out

Claravox Centennial includes a convenient 1/4”
headphone jack on the front panel, complete
with a dedicated

HEADPHONE VOLUME

knob. Keep the headphone cable secured so that
it does not interfere with the Pitch Antenna.

NOTE:

This headphone jack is unaffected by the

status of the

MAIN OUTPUT

switch (see page

38-39).
