Basic Operation
1 Connect the guitar, bass guitar, microphone,
etc. to the BR-1200CD’s input jacks.
Guitar, bass, etc.:
Connect to the GUITAR/BASS jack on the front panel.
Microphone for solo vocals:
Connect to the INPUT 2/MIC 2 input jack on the rear
panel.
CD player, keyboard, etc.:
Connect to the LINE IN L and R jacks on the rear
panel.
2 Connect the LINE OUT L and LINE OUT R
jacks on the rear panel to your amplifier.
If you will be using headphones, connect these
to the PHONES 1 jack.
The BR-1200CD’s LINE OUT L/R jacks must always
be correctly matched with the amplifier’s left and
right inputs.
3 If necessary, connect an expression pedal or
foot switch to the BR-1200CD. Any MIDI or
USB connections should also be made.
Precautions When Making Connections
• When a guitar or bass is connected to the GUITAR/BASS jack, the INPUT 1/MIC 1 input jack will be deactivated and
will not accept any sound input.
• Noise may be generated when the pickup on your guitar or bass is close to the BR-1200CD. Move the BR-1200CD and
guitar further apart to eliminate this noise.
• The location of microphones relative to speakers could result in feedback being produced. This can be remedied by:
1. Changing the orientation of the microphone(s).
2. Relocating the microphone(s) at a greater distance from the speakers.
3. Lowering volume levels.
• For more detailed information regarding the operation and setting of expression pedals, refer to “Using an expression
pedal” (p. 124).
• For more detailed information regarding the operation and setting of foot switches, refer to “Using a foot switch” (p.

• For more detailed information regarding the operation and setting of MIDI devices, refer to “Section 6 Using MIDI”
(p. 241).
• For more detailed information regarding USB operation and setting methods, refer to “Section 7 Using USB” (p. 257).
• When a condenser microphone is connected to an XLR input jack, phantom power at +48 V can be supplied from the
BR-1200CD. For details on how this is done, see “Using condenser microphones (Phantom Power)” (p. 278).
