and speaker system that do away with the need for
external amplification. Yet there may be times, when
you prefer the C-180’s sound to be distributed via the
public address system of the hall or church where you
are performing – or you may want to record the
C-180’s sound without background noises.

MIDI OUT/IN connectors
Use these connectors for transmitting (OUT) and
receiving (IN) MIDI messages to/from other instru-

1.3 Headphone connectors
The C-180 features two headphone jacks. This allows
two people to listen through headphones simultane-
ously, making it very useful for lessons. Additionally,
this allows you to play without having to worry about
bothering others around you, even at night.
For optimum sound quality, be sure to use optional
Roland RH-25 or RH-50 headphones.
