used in ordinary operation.

2. PHONES Jack

This is the jack for connecting headphones (sold separately).

* Use headphones with an impedance of 8 to 150 Ohms.

1. AC Adaptor Jack

Accepts connection of the supplied AC adaptor.

2. Ground Terminal

Depending on the circumstances of a particular setup, you

may experience a discomforting sensation, or perceive that

the surface feels gritty to the touch when you touch this

device, microphones connected to it, or the metal portions of

other objects, such as guitars. This is due to an infinitesimal

electrical charge, which is absolutely harmless. However, if

you are concerned about this, connect the ground terminal

(see figure) with an external ground. When the unit is

grounded, a slight hum may occur, depending on the

particulars of your installation. If you are unsure of the

connection method, contact the nearest Roland Service

Center, or an authorized Roland distributor, as listed on the

“Information” page.

Unsuitable places for connection

• Water pipes (may result in shock or electrocution)

• Gas pipes (may result in fire or explosion)

• Telephone-line ground or lightning rod (may be

dangerous in the event of lightning)

3. Chord Hook

To prevent the inadvertent disruption of power to your unit

(should the plug be pulled out accidentally), and to avoid

applying undue stress to the AC adaptor jack, anchor the

power cord using the cord hook.

4. MIDI Connectors (In, Out, Thru)

These connectors are used to connect the MX-200 with other

devices for sending and receiving MIDI messages.

MIDI IN: This receives information from other MIDI

instruments.

MIDI OUT: This sends information from the MX-200.

MIDI THRU:

This sends out, unaltered, information

received from MIDI IN.

5. OUTPUT Jack (L (MONO), R)

These are for stereo (L/R) output of audio signals to an amp

or a mixer. For monaural output, connect to the left (L) jack.

Two types of jacks are provided for the OUTPUT jacks, 1/4”

phone jacks (L (MONO), R) and RCA phono jacks (L, R).
