MINI-KORG SYNTHESIZER OPERATING PROCEDURE

1. Connect AC line cord (found inside re
cessed compartment on rear of unit, figure
1)to local voltage 50/60Hz outlet.
2. Connect audio cable (shielded-type) from
jack marked "Output", to input of your
amplifier. Utilize jack marked "H" for high
impedance use (100K Cl ) or jack marked
"Low" for low impedance (5K fl ) shown
in figure 1.

3. Switch on/off control to "On" position. If

pilot lamp fails to light, check fuse found
in rear compartment, figure 1 and replace
With identical rating only.

4. Install enclosed Music Rack as shown in

figure 2.

5. Adjust pitch-control slide for tuning figure

10.
To adjust Pitch, set Attack-Percussion
slides (figure 5) to "8", and all "Instant Set
Tabs"(figure 8) to OFF position.
6. Follow the control descriptions listed next
for a better understanding of the versa
tility of your new MINI-KORG SYNTHE
SIZER.

7. Unit is equipped with 2 rear adjustable

legs for tilting.

Precautions:

• Be certain that power switch is turned OFF

whenever plugging in or unplugging the AC con
nector cord.
• If fuse should need replacing, make sure that you
replace with identical value.
• Protect the unit from excessive heat, humidity,
and vibrations.
