UNBOXING

UNBOXINGUNBOXING

UNBOXING

When you ll open the box you will find the following items:

- Keylite Master Keyboard

(25,49 or 61 Keys)

- USB Cable

- User Manual CD

The packaging bag is not a toy! Keep out of reach of children.

Keep in a safe place the original packaging material for future use.

The unit is projected to be powered trough USB, so the external device you will plug to the

keyboard will supply the right voltage to let the keyboard works. If you want to use the

keyboard to pilot an external device via traditional MIDI OUT connector you need to supply

the voltage required (9VDC-Center Positive) with an external PSU. Ask your SOUNDSATION

Center for a PSU-20 to ensure best performance. An incorrect PSU can damage the

instrument and the warranty immediately dies.

ACCESSORIES

ACCESSORIESACCESSORIES

ACCESSORIES

KEYLITE keyboards can be used with several accessories like Pedals, Switches or Sustain

Pedals as well as the aforementioned PSU-20 Power Supply.

It s really suggested to use SOUNDSATION Accessories to prevent possible incompatibility

with other product from other manufacturer.

Ask your SOUNDSATION dealer for any accessories you could need to ensure best

performance of the product.

If any foreign objects enter the instrument, please contact your dealer or an authorized

SOUNDSATION center.

The serial number, electrical features and international standards are printed on a label

located in the bottom of the instrument.

In case of problems remember to give the serial number to the responsible of the technical

assistance.

ALL

DAW

COMPATIBILITY

You have just to plug the USB cable on the keyboard and then plug the other side on your

computer. Open the software menu in which is possible to define the MIDI Device to use

and select “USB Midi Controller” from the available devices.

If you use the Midi Out port be sure that the module you are using is able to receive the

Midi messages in the same Channel in which the Keylite is working (Default Ch is 1).

You can plug 2 switch or continuous pedal on the Keylite. It s really suggested to use

genuine SOUNDSATION pedals. Ask your dealer for a compatible SOUNDSATION pedal.

Before connecting any other pedal please read carefully the specific section of this manual

where you can find all the instruction to adjust the resistance read range of pedals.

PEDAL CURVE

PEDAL CURVEPEDAL CURVE

PEDAL CURVE

You can adjust the pedal resistance curve to better work with pedals of different specifications from

SOUNDSATION pedals.

stimate resistance curve value

Value of Pedal CURV = (128 x pedal resistance value) / (10K + pedal resistance value)

X. if the pedal resistance value is 10K, the value of Pedal CURVE is:

128*10K/ (10K+10K) = 64

For pedal resistance value, please refer to the technical specifications provided by pedal manufacturer.

The resistance curve estimation does not need to be very accurate, or you could simply adjust it without

calculation, as long as the travel and succession of the pedal satisfy your needs.

The initial value of resistance curve is 64, adaptable to most pedals in the market.

When you use switching type pedal, the recommended resistance curve value is 64.

When DATA +/ is assigned as Pedal 1 CURVE or Pedal 2 CURVE, DATA +/ can be used to adjust

resistance curve values. Press two buttons of DATA +/ at the same time to set the resistance curve value

to initial 64.

When the pots （C1~C4 or C5~C8）are assigned as Pedal 1 CURVE or Pedal 2 CURVE, they can be

used to adjust pedal resistance value.

Press EDIT button to enter keyboard multi function mode, press Pedal 1 CURVE or Pedal 2 CURVE multi

functional keys to enter pedal resistance curve adjustment mode, input the pedal resistance value with

numeric pad, then press ENTER to confirm.
