Startup—the Details
 
Connecting the Audio Cables
 
After youÕve turned down the level on your sound system, connect the K2600Õs analog audio 
outputs to your sound system using a pair of stereo or mono audio cables. Mono cables will 
always work, but if youÕre going into balanced inputs, use stereo cables for a better signal-to-
noise ratio. The K2600Õs analog outputs are balanced, and generate a ÒhotterÓ signal than 
previous Kurzweil instruments.
YouÕll Þnd ten 1/4-inch jacks near the top of the rear panel. For now, connect one end of each 
audio cable to your mixing board or PA system inputs, and connect the other end to the jacks 
marked MIX L and R on the rear panel of the K2600. If you have only one input available, use 
the K2600Õs MIX L output to get the full signal in mono. YouÕll Þnd more about audio 
conÞgurationsÑincluding digital outputÑin Chapter 19.
 
Connecting MIDI
 
The simplest MIDI conÞguration uses a single MIDI cable: either from the MIDI Out port of 
your K2600 to the MIDI In port of another instrument, or from the MIDI Out port of your MIDI 
controller to the MIDI In port of the K2600 or K2600R. There are all sorts of possible 
conÞgurations, including additional synths, personal computers, MIDI effects processors, and 
MIDI patch bays. Depending on your system, you may want to use the K2600Õs MIDI Thru port 
to pass MIDI information from a MIDI controller to the K2600 and on to the next device in your 
system. You can also connect MIDI devices to the K2600Õs MIDI Out port, which can send 
channelized MIDI information from the keyboard or through the K2600 from your MIDI 
controller. See the discussion of the Local Keyboard Channel parameter on page 10-7.
 
Note
 
: You can perform a quick check of the K2600R and your audio system without a MIDI 
controller connected to the K2600R. Hold down the 
 
Cancel
 
 button on the alphanumeric pad and 
press any other alphanumeric button, and you should hear notes. See the discussion of the Panel 
Play feature on page 3-10 for more information.
 
Connecting SCSI
 
You may not have a hard disk or other SCSI device to connect to your K2600 right away, but if 
you do, you can connect it to either of the SCSI ports. Please read the following information 
carefully; itÕs very important. Also, thereÕs a collection of SCSI tips in Chapter 6 of the 
 
 
.
 
CAUTION:
 
 If you plan to connect any SCSI devices (a hard disk, for example) to the K2600, you must 
terminate your SCSI chain properly. Turn to Chapter 13 and read the section called SCSI Termination. 
You can lose data if your system isnÕt terminated properly.
 
Switching On the Power
 
¥
Keyboard models:  the power switch is on the rear panel. If youÕre facing the keyboard, itÕs 
just to the right of the power cable connection.
¥
Rack-mount models:  the power switch is located at the lower left of the front panel.
