ProKeys Sono can function as the centerpiece of a simple live performance setup.
Connect a Microphone and an Instrument (such as an electric guitar or bass) to
ProKeys Sono and use the Microphone and Instrument gain knobs to set the input
levels. Next, use the Direct Monitor knob to set the overall level of the microphone
and instrument inputs in the mix. Finally, adjust the level of the keyboard’s built-in
sounds by using the Voice Volume knob.
If you connected the line outputs of an external device to the aux inputs of
ProKeys Sono, the volume level of that device may need to be adjusted at the
external device itself.
The mixed signal of Microphone, Instrument, Aux input and built-in sounds will be
available on both headphone outputs and the rear-panel 1/4” outputs.
Use the Master Volume slider to adjust the overall output level.
NOTE: ProKeys Sono is capable of many advanced features which can be accessed via the
ProKeys Sono Edit mode. Many of these features can be useful when ProKeys Sono is operating in
Standalone mode. Additional information concerning these features can be found in the “Advanced
ProKeys Sono Functions in Edit Mode” chapter of this User Guide.
ProKeys Sono Demos
ProKeys Sono has a built-in demo song for each instrument sound. To hear these demos:
1. Press the Edit Mode button.
2. Press one of the Voice Select buttons.
Demo playback can be stopped by pressing the Edit Mode button. While the demo is playing, the LED of the selected voice
will flash. At the completion of the demo, the demo song will repeat.
Tip: Connect the MIDI Out jack
of ProKeys Sono to an external
MIDI synthesizer or sound module.
Connect the Line outputs of the
external device to the Aux inputs
on ProKeys Sono. If you play the
ProKeys Sono keyboard, you will
trigger MIDI sounds on the external
MIDI synthesizer, and can hear them
back through the ProKeys Sono main
outputs.
