There is no power switch on the Key-Largo, as soon as you connect the 

power supply the ON light on the front of the unit will illuminate and the 

Key-Largo will be active. 

Connect  your  first  keyboard  to  INPUT-1  Left  and  Right  (if  using  a 

keyboard with only one output, connect to the Left/Mono input, the Key-

Largo will automatically reconfigure this channel for mono), then connect 

the MAIN OUT to the PA or a set of powered speakers via XLR cables. 

Start with the CH-1 level control at around 12 o’clock, and slowly turn 

up  the  MAIN  level  until  you  can  hear  your  first  keyboard.  Repeat  the 

process with your next two keyboards, using the input levels for each 

channel to balance the levels between them. The MONITOR outputs 

allows you to connect to an additional set of powered speakers via TRS 

cables, for local monitoring on stage or to send to a headphone amplifier. 

Should you experience any hum or buzz due to ground loops, the MAIN 

and MONITOR outputs are each equipped with a ground lift switch to 

help eliminate this problem.
