Playing the SP-500
1. Playing a sound
First let’s turn on the power and play the keyboard to produce sound.
Turing the power on
As described in the connection procedure on p.14, connect the AC/AC power supply, head-
phones, and pedal. Then turn on the power of the SP-500.
1
Turn on the power
Leave the [VOLUME] slider set at about 0.
Press the [POWER] switch located on the rear panel. When you turn on the power, the
panel indicators will light, and the startup screen will appear.
Turning the power off
Press the [POWER] switch once again. When the power is turned off, the panel indica-
tors will all go dark.
2
Play the keyboard
While playing the keyboard, gradually adjust the [VOLUME] slider to adjust the vol-
ume.
If you are listening to the SP-500 through your monitor speakers, cassette-radio unit,
or audio system, adjust the output volume of this equipment as well.
Adjusting the volume
Raise the [MASTER VOLUME] slider to the middle position. Moving the slider toward the right
will increase the volume, and moving it toward the left will decrease the volume. At a position of
“0” there will be no sound.
While actually playing the instrument, adjust the volume to an appropriate level.
