THE AUDIO SYSTEM
Although you've no doubt discovered that the W-5000's internal sound system is extremely capable, there
may be situations in which you need greater volume or flexibility. You'll be pleased to know that the W-
5000 is designed to accommodate!
NOTE: Before making any connections or disconnecting any cables, be sure all of the equipment in
your audio system is off. This includes all mixers, amps, PA systems and the W-5000 itself.
Taking this simple precaution will help prevent damage or malfunction.
Before you turn anything on, double check the connections and be sure all volume levels are
set to zero. Once all the equipment is on, then set the volume controls to appropriate levels.
OUTPUTS
Audio output from the W-5000 is provided in a variety of forms. With the output array provided you'll be
able to create the configuration you need. (Refer back to page 14 (Rear Panel Description) if you need to
refresh your memory.)
MIXED LINE BALANCED OUTPUT
These XLR connectors provide a balanced output of all the W-5000's internal sources; SYNTH,
DRAWBAR and CLASSIC ORGAN (this is called the Line mix). Any source connected to the AUX
INPUTs can also be output through these connectors. The composite signal from these outputs can be sent
directly to a mixing board (using long cables if necessary).
MIXED SPKR OUTPUT
These 1/4" jacks provide an output for the Speaker mix; the same signal heard through the instrument's
internal speakers. Any source connected to the AUX INPUTs can also be output through these connectors.
Send the output from these jacks to a mixer for house or stage monitor use.
MIXED LINE OUTPUT
These 1/4" jacks provide a line level output (Line mix) for the instrument's main sources (SYNTH,
DRAWBAR and CLASSIC ORGAN). The output from these jacks can be sent to recording devices or
outboard digital processors (for example). This is the same signal as provided by the MIXED LINE
BALANCED OUTPUTs (but the signal is not balanced and these are 1/4" jacks, not XLRs).
RODGERS MAIN OUTPUT
This is the standard Rodgers 15-pin connector providing a composite of the main individual outputs
(SYNTH, DRAWBAR and CLASSIC ORGAN) as well as the MIXED LINE or MIXED SPKR OUTPUTs.
This connector can also send a 'power on' signal to any amplifiers in the chain.
RODGERS ANTIPHONAL OUTPUT
This is the standard 9-pin connector for the MIXED LINE OUTPUTs. This connector can also send a 'power
on' signal to any amplifiers in the chain.
SYNTH OUTPUT
These 1/4" jacks allow you to send a line-level signal from the Synth generator to separate channels of a
mixing board, a dedicated effects unit and/or to separate speaker enclosures. This gives you full control over
the output of Synth sounds. For the best results, use both the Left and Right jacks.
DRAWBAR OUTPUTS
These 1/4" jacks allow you to send a line-level signal from the Drawbar/Tone-Wheel generator to separate
channels of a mixing board, a dedicated effects unit and/or to separate speaker enclosures. This is the signal
