7. Microphone Gain Knob (Mic. Gain): The signal (green) LED illuminates when incoming audio signal is greater than
-20dB. The peak (red) LED illuminates when incoming audio signal is greater than -1dB.
8. Instrument Gain Knob (Inst. Gain): The signal (green) LED illuminates when incoming audio signal is greater than

9. Mono Button (Mono): This is an analog button that sums the Microphone and Instrument inputs. When active, input
signals will be routed to both, the left and the right side of your stereo speakers or headphones, making them appear
centered in the stereo panorama.
When recording while the Mono Button is active, signals from the Microphone Input and Instrument Input will be merged
and recorded to both, the left and the right side of a stereo track in your recording software. If signals are entering the
keyboard through the Aux inputs or if you’re playing the built-in Piano sound while recording, then all sounds will be
merged and recorded to the same audio track.
This makes it easy to record an entire performance to a stereo track by the push of a button.
Note: The Mono button does not affect signals from the Aux Inputs or the the build-in Piano sound.
