Connecting a microphone
Connect your microphone to the MIC 1 or MIC 2
socket.
If you are using only one microphone, choose the
MIC 1 socket. This will allow you to take advantage of
the JM-5’s voice effects and harmony function.
NOTE
You can connect a condenser microphone to the MIC 1
socket, in which case you need to switch on phantom
power (page 27).
■ Cautions when using a microphone
•Lower the volume before you connect a microphone
to the JM-5. If the volume is raised when you con-
nect a microphone, noise may be output from the
connected speakers.
• Howling could be produced depending on the loca-
tion of microphones relative to speakers of your
amplification system. This can be remedied by:
(1) Changing the orientation of the microphones.
(2) Relocating the microphone(s) at a greater dis-
tance from speakers.
(3) Lowering volume levels.
Connecting a television set
NOTE
Before you make connections to other devices, you must
turn down the volume of all devices and turn off their
power to prevent malfunctions or damage to your speak-
ers.
