Features of the PC4

Pedals (Optional)

e PC4 has four jacks on the rear panel for optional pedal controllers.

Two switch pedal jacks are typically used to control two-state (i.e., on / o) parameters such

as sustain, sostenuto, and soft pedal. A Half Damper pedal (also known as a continuous

switch pedal) can be used to allow for “half pedaling” sustain techniques when playing PC4

piano programs. Each jack also supports dual switch pedals, allowing up to 4 switch pedals to

be used.

Two continuous control (or CC) pedal jacks are typically used to control continuous

parameters such as volume and wah.

Your Kurzweil dealer stocks the following pedals:

• KP-1 Single piano-style switch pedal

• KP-1H Single piano-style Half Damper pedal

• CC-1 Continuous pedal

Software Updates

Be sure to check the Kurzweil website at www.kurzweil.com for new sounds, documentation

and software updates. See the Info page in Global mode to check the currently installed OS

version.

Quick Start

Setting Up the PC4

1. If your PC4 has been out in the cold during shipping, give it time to warm up to room

temperature before powering it on, since condensation may have formed inside.

2. Place the PC4 on a keyboard stand or on a hard, at, level surface.

3. Connect the DC power adaptor to the PC4 DC Power jack.

4. Make sure your power outlet is compatible with the included power adaptor, then plug

the power cable into the power outlet.

5. Plug the included Switch Pedal into the SW1 (SUSTAIN) jack on the PC4 rear panel.

6. If you have an additional switch pedal, plug it into the SW2 jack for Sostenuto control.

7. If you have a MIDI CC pedal (also known as a MIDI expression or volume pedal), plug

it into the CC1 (VOLUME) jack for volume control.

8. If you are using speakers, turn the master volume all the way down on your amplier

or mixer. Using standard (1/4-inch) audio cables, rst plug into the input jacks of your

amplier or mixer, then plug the other end of the cables into the PC4 AUDIO OUT A

jacks. (Connecting in this order minimizes the possibility of static discharge damage.)

For a mono signal, only use the LEFT (MONO) A jack, and leave the RIGHT A jack

unplugged. Balanced (“TRS” or “Stereo”) cables are recommended if your mixer or amp

supports balanced inputs.

9. If you are using headphones, connect stereo headphones to the headphone jack on the

rear panel.

10. Move the PC4 VOLUME slider (on the far left side of the front panel) to the minimum

(closer to the keys).

Quick Start

Powering On the PC4

1. Power on the PC4 by pressing the POWER button on the right rear panel.

2. If you are using speakers, turn up the volume on your amplier or mixer.

3. Slowly turn up the PC4 VOLUME Slider and play some notes to check the volume

level. (If you have a CC pedal plugged into the CC (VOLUME) jack, make sure it is set

to the maximum volume position).

4. If you are using speakers and the PC4 is not loud enough, turn up the volume on your

amplier or mixer.

5. If you are using a mixer and hear distortion, reduce the gain level on the mixer, or use

the mixer’s Pad button if it has one (a button that typically decreases the audio input level

by 20dB).

6. After using the PC4, if you are using speakers, turn the master volume all the way down

on your amplier or mixer before powering o the PC4.

Auditioning PC4 Sounds

1. e PC4 starts up in Program Mode. Use the PREVIOUS and NEXT buttons, Alpha

Wheel, or CATEGORY buttons to select a dierent Program. See PC4 Sounds on page

13 for more details on selecting Programs or Multis.

1. To hear a Program Demo song for the current Program, press the 0/MISC and ENTER

buttons simultaneously.

2. To hear the capabilities of the PC4, you can play the multi-channel demo songs. Press

the USER and 0/MISC buttons simultaneously to listen to a multi-channel demo song.

3. To switch between auditioning Programs or Multis, press the PROGRAM or MULTI

Mode button under the MODE label to the right of the display.

Automatic Power Saving

e PC4 has an automatic power saving feature (Auto Power O) that can automatically

power o the PC4 after a period of inactivity, in order to conserve electricity. e Auto

Power O feature is enabled by default. e default Power O Time is 8 hours, which will

cause the PC4 to power o after 8 hours of inactivity.

A count down timer warning will be shown in the display a few minutes before the PC4 is

powered o. At any time, touching any PC4 control or playing a note will cause the PC4 to

remain powered on, until the PC4 has been inactive for the set Power O Time.

Auto Power O can be disabled in Global Mode. e Power O Time can also be adjusted

in Global Mode.
