Connecting to the VK-8 (Turning the Power On)
Use a MIDI cable to connect the VK-8 and PK-7.
The PK-7 provides a “MIDI Merge” feature, which allows you to have the MIDI
messages received at MIDI IN be combined with the MIDI messages produced by
playing the PK-7 itself. The resulting merged data stream is then transmitted from the
MIDI OUT connector.
1.
Make sure that the power of the VK-8 and PK-7 is turned off.
2.
Use a MIDI cable to connect the VK-8’s MIDI PEDAL IN connector to the
PK-7’s MIDI OUT connector.
3.
Connect the appropriate end of the AC adaptor to the DC IN jack. Then
connect the other end to a standard AC outlet.
Once the connections have been completed, turn on power to your various devices in the order
specified. By turning on devices in the wrong order, you risk causing malfunction and/or
damage to speakers and other devices.
4.
Turn on the power of the PK-7, and make sure that the indicator on the
PK-7’s rear panel is lit.
5.
As described in the VK-8 Owner’s Manual, turn on the power of the VK-8.
6.
Make sure that the Sub-Keyboard Function is on (VK-8 Owner’s
Manual p. 58).
7.
Play the pedal keyboard. If the pedal part is heard from the VK-8,
connections are complete.
Once you have made connections as described above, you can use the switches and pedals to con-
trol the following functions.
•
Expression pedal: Control the volume of all parts of the Organ, and the Other Tones.
•
Foot switch L: Switch the rotary effect between slow/fast.
•
Foot switch R: Turn the rotary effect brake on/off.
•
Hold pedal: Hold (sustain) the sound of the Organ voice and Other Tones.
When the PK-7’s FOOT SW-L OUT/FOOT SW-R OUT/HOLD jack is connected to the
VK-8’s CONTROL PEDAL jack, you can assign a variety of functions to the foot switch.
Use a mono cable (phone-phone) to make connections.

PEDAL jack, you can use the expression pedal to simultaneously control the volume of
all parts of the Organ and the Other Tones. Use a stereo cable (phone-phone) to make
connections.

Changing the MIDI channel
If the PK-7 is connected to the VK-88/VK-8, there is no need to change the MIDI transmit channel. However if
you are connecting to another MIDI device, you can change the MIDI transmit channel of the PK-7 if desired. To
set the MIDI transmit channel to “1,” hold down the C2 note (the left-most note) and the Hold pedal while you
turn on the power. Similarly, you can use the notes from D2 to D#3 to select channels 3–16. When the power is
turned off, the MIDI transmit channel will automatically be set to “2.”
If you want to change the MIDI channel, disconnect the cable from the HOLD OUT jack first.
