5. Konfigurazioa

Follow these steps to set up your Behringer Kobol Expander:

1. Potentzia-konexioa: Connect the included power supply to the DC input on the rear panel of the Kobol Expander and then to a suitable power outlet.
2. Audio irteera: Connect the AUDIO OUT jack to your mixer, audio interface, or amplifier using a standard 1/4-inch TS cable. For monitoring with headphones, connect to the PHONES jack.
3. MIDI konexioa: For MIDI control, connect a MIDI cable from your MIDI controller or interface to the MIDI IN port on the Kobol Expander. The MIDI THRU port can be used to daisy-chain other MIDI devices.
4. Adabakia: Use the included patch cables to explore the semi-modular capabilities. Start with simple patches to understand signal flow.
5. Piztu: Once all connections are secure, power on the unit. The power indicator LED will illuminate.
