Use a stereo Y adapter cable to connect a rhythm 
machine (ZOOM RT-223 or similar) or a 
CD/MD player or similar. The signal supplied to 
the AUX IN jack is not processed by the internal 
effects, it is supplied to the OUTPUT L/MONO 
and OUTPUT R jacks as is. The signal is also 
sent to the USB port. 
Patch switching and 
pedal operation 
information can be sent 
and received as MIDI 
messages.
