Preparations

Making connections

Connecting audio devices

The Grandstage does not have built-in speakers.
You will need to connect audio equipment such as powered
monitor speakers or a stereo set, or use headphones in order to
hear sound.
Connecting powered monitor speakers or a mixer
The audio outputs on this keyboard output signal at a higher
level than ordinary home audio equipment like CD players.
For this reason, playing at an excessive volume may damage
the connected speakers or audio equipment, so use caution
with the volume level.
1. Turn down the volume on all of your connected
equipment, and then turn off the power.
2. Connect the L/MONO and R jacks or the LEFT
and RIGHT (XLR) jacks from the AUDIO OUTPUT
of this keyboard to the audio input jacks of your
powered monitor speakers or mixer.
Tip:
The signals outputted from the L/MONO and R jacks are
the same as those from the LEFT and RIGHT (XLR) jacks.
You can use both at the same time.
Tip:
If you're using a monaural connection, connect to the
L/MONO jack.
Connecting headphones
Here you can connect a set of headphones equipped with a 1/4"
(φ6.3 mm) stereo phone-plug. This jack will output the same
signals as the AUDIO OUTPUT. Use the MASTER VOLUME
knob to adjust the headphone volume.
Note:
The output from the AUDIO OUTPUT is not turned
off even if headphones are connected to the Headphone
jack.

power.
2. Press the power button on the rear panel of the
Grandstage.
The opening screen will be shown in the KEYBOARDS
section display for a short while.
3. The Grandstage will be ready to play once the
buttons and LEDs on the front panel light up.
When turning on the power, bank A, number 1 of the
favorites will always be selected.
4. Turn on the power of the external equipment
that's connected to the Grandstage's AUDIO
OUTPUT jacks, such as a monitor amplifier or
stereo amplifier.
5. Use the Grandstage's MASTER VOLUME knob and
the volume controls of your external equipment
to set the volume to a suitable level.
Tip:
When a set period of time has passed without playing the
keys, turning the knobs or pressing the buttons on this
keyboard, the power is automatically turned off. Refer to
"Auto Power Off" on page 16.

Turning the power off

1. Lower the volume of your powered monitor
speakers, stereo amp or other external output
device, and then turn off their power.
2. Hold down the power button on the rear panel
of the Grandstage for several seconds to turn
off the power until the buttons and LEDs on the
control panel have gone dark, and then release
the power button.
"POWER OFF" will be shown in the KEYBOARDS section
display for several seconds.
3. Once the display goes dark, the power will
automatically turn off.
Do not remove the power cord before the display goes dark.
Doing so may cause a malfunction.
