Once again, <strong>ProKeys</strong> <strong>Sono</strong> is being used as an audio interface . However, in this scenario,<br />
the auxiliary input jacks are being used to record the output of an external device (such as a<br />
sound module, CD player, or other line-level device) .<br />
The external device’s stereo output is received at the RCA input jacks on <strong>ProKeys</strong> <strong>Sono</strong><br />
and sent to the computer through the USB connection . Sequencer software running on the<br />
computer can then capture the device’s signal on a stereo audio track (labeled “Aux Stereo”<br />
in the illustration above) . Signal entering the left Aux input is routed to the left channel<br />
of your software (i .e ., channel one) while the right Aux input is routed to the right channel<br />
(channel two) of the recording software .<br />
This stereo signal can be monitored while recording or played back after it has been<br />
recorded . Monitoring can take place over powered speakers (connected to the 1/4” main<br />
output jacks on the rear panel) or by headphones (connected to either one of the 1/4”<br />
headphone jacks on the front panel) .<br />

TIP: Signal from the<br />
<strong>ProKeys</strong> <strong>Sono</strong> auxiliary inputs<br />
are usually available on input<br />
channels one and two within<br />
your recording software. To<br />
record the external device’s<br />
outputs, a stereo audio<br />
track must be confi gured to<br />
receive signal from audio<br />
input channels one and two.<br />
See your audio application’s<br />
documentation to learn how<br />
to confi gure an audio track.<br />
Keep in mind that—depending on how the Mono button is confi gured to function—the routing of the auxiliary inputs can<br />
be altered to make the left and right channels appear as a mono sound source that is “centered” in the stereo fi eld . This<br />
functionality may be helpful in direct monitoring situations where headphones are being used . To learn more about this, see<br />
the section titled “The Mono Button” within the “<strong>ProKeys</strong> <strong>Sono</strong> <strong>Audio</strong> Setup and Controls” section of this <strong>User</strong> <strong>Guide</strong> .
