Hi

I recently acquired a used kn 1600.

it didn't come with a manual but I've been online and found it in pdf form.

a couple of questions:-

(1) I am playing it through two KRK monitor speakers for better sound. It does this....but is there anyway in settings to turn off the speakers in the board and run the KRK's only?
Do I have to get an adaptor cable and run from the "headphone" out to the KRK's? The KRK's have their own built-in amps in each speaker.

Also....in "accessories" it shows two models of foot switch.
One is an "expression" pedal,the other is a "footswitch".
Which one would be for adding momentary "sustain" like on a piano?

I guess on this board the only way to save any and all settings is to download to disk, right?
It turns off internal power after 80 minutes (after you shut the board power off)and everything is gone except MIDI settings according to the manual......I'm not sure which settings are MIDI though.

If anyone has a hardcopy manual they would like to sell for the kn1600 I would buy it from you.

Have had Technics boards before and they absolutely smoke anything Yamaha ever made.

I am just hoping Technics/Matsushita come to their senses and start making the kn boards again. I am so done with Yamaha.
(I also own two Yamaha boards).

Also.......do they make any kind of replacement floppy drives that will fit this board easily?
I don't need one now....but.....just in case....


Cheers.....
