Frequently asked questions

If the PK-7 is connected to a device that cannot use the PK cable (such as the VK-8), ensure the supplied AC adaptor is used and connected correctly, then turn the power switch on.

When connected to the VK-88 using the supplied PK cable, the PK-7’s power is switched on/off in tandem with the VK-88. Ensure the VK-88’s power is on and the PK cable is connected correctly.

First, check that the expression pedal cable is correctly connected to the connector on the upper part of the PK-7. If connected to VK-88, verify cable connection and check switch/pedal settings in the VK-88 Owner’s Manual. If connected to VK-8 with MIDI cable, confirm MIDI cable connection and relevant VK-8 settings (Sub-Keyboard Function, Control Pedal polarity/assignment).

When the PK-7 is connected to the VK-8 without using analog cables, functions other than Rotary Slow/Fast (foot pedal L) and Rotary Brake (foot pedal R) cannot be assigned.

If a cable is connected to the HOLD OUT jack, the MIDI channel cannot be changed. Disconnect the cable from the HOLD OUT jack first if you wish to change the MIDI channel.
