A standard pair of stereo headphones can be
plugged in here for private practice or late-night
playing. The internal stereo speaker system is
automatically shut off when a pair of head-
phones is plugged into the PHONES jack.
Do not listen with the headphones at high vol-
ume for long periods of time. Doing so may
cause hearing loss.
The sustain function causes the sound from a
depressed key to continue, even after the key is
released. Plug an optional Yamaha FC4 or FC5
footswitch into the sustain jack and use it to
switch sustain on and off. The footswitch con-
nected to this jack can also be set to replicate the
functions of some panel buttons, doing things
like starting and stopping accompaniment (page
117).
Connecting an optional Yamaha FC7 foot con-
troller lets you use your foot to change the
volume as you play the PSR-730/630 (expres-
sion function). The foot controller connected to
this jack can also be set to replicate the functions
of the main volume controls, such as accompani-
ment or song volume (page 117).
The rear-panel AUX OUT R and L/L+R jacks
deliver the output of the PSR-730/630 for con-
nection to a keyboard amplifier, stereo sound
system, a mixing console, or tape recorder. If
you will be connecting the PSR-730/630 to a
monaural sound system, use only the L/L+R
jack. When a plug is inserted into the L/L+R jack
only, the left- and right-channel signals are com-
bined and delivered via the L/L+R jack so you
don't lose any of the PSR-730/630 sound. (Use
phone plugs).
Setting Up
• Be sure that you do not
press the footswitch while
turning the power on. If
you do, the ON/OFF sta-
tus of the footswitch will
be reversed.
• When the sustain or
sostenuto pedal func-
tions are being used
(page 117), some
voices may sound con-
tinuously or have a long
decay after the notes
have been released
while the pedal is held.
• Connecting PSR-
730/630 to external
equipment only after
turning off power for
all devices. To pre-
vent damage to the
speakers, set the
volume of the exter-
nal devices at the
minimum setting be-
fore connecting
them. Failure to ob-
serve these cautions
may result in elec-
tric shock or equip-
ment damage.
