Connect External Instruments 
 
You can connect external audio sources–other synthesizers, 
mixers, guitars, etc.–using the ¼-inch (audio in) jacks on the back 
of the Micron.  The jacks accept either balanced or unbalanced 
cables. 
 
Your external audio can be blended in with the Micron’s internal 
sound-producing oscillators.  The resulting combination is then 
sent through the Micron’s filters and effects.  This doesn’t happen 
automatically, though.  You need to adjust some program 
parameters to send external audio into the mix.  See page 72 for 
more about these filters and effects. 
 
Use both jacks for stereo input.  Use the (left) jack for mono-only 
sources (in which case the input will be sent to both the left and 
right channels).   
 
A special group of programs–including vocoder programs–exists 
just for use with the external inputs.  These programs begin with 
“*” and are accessible at the beginning of the sfx Program 
category. 
 
 
 
 
Whew! 
We’ve covered a lot of material.  Hopefully now you feel 
comfortable navigating around the Micron.  Future chapters will 
cover editing, MIDI, and other more advanced features.  But if 
you want to throw this manual on the fire now and simply enjoy 
playing your Micron, no one will blame you.  You’ve got the basics 
well at hand.

the  Micron’s filter 
parameters.
