Setting Up the PC4 SE
- If your PC4 SE keyboard 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.
- Place the PC4 SE on a keyboard stand or on a hard, flat, level surface.
- Connect the DC power adaptor to the PC4 SE DC Power jack.
- Make sure your power outlet is compatible with the included power adaptor, then plug the power cable into the power outlet.
- Plug the included Switch Pedal into the SW1 (SUSTAIN) jack on the PC4 SE rear panel.
- If you have an additional switch pedal, plug it into the SW2 jack for Sostenuto control.
- If you have a MIDI CC pedal (also known as a MIDI expression or volume pedal), plug it into the CC (VOLUME) jack for volume control.
- If you are using speakers, turn the master volume all the way down on your amplifier or mixer. Using standard (1/4-inch) audio cables, first plug into the input jacks of your amplifier or mixer, then plug the other end of the cables into the PC4 SE AUDIO OUT jacks. (Connecting in this order minimizes the possibility of static discharge damage.) For a mono signal, only use the LEFT (MONO) jack, and leave the RIGHT jack unplugged. Balanced (“TRS” or “Stereo”) cables are recommended if your mixer or amp supports balanced inputs.
- If you are using headphones, connect stereo headphones to the headphone jack on the rear panel.
- Move the PC4 SE VOLUME Slider all the way down.
Powering On the PC4 SE
1. Power on the PC4 SE by pressing the POWER button on the right rear panel.
2. If you are using speakers, turn up the volume on your amplifier or mixer.
3. Slowly turn up the PC4 SE 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 SE is not loud enough, turn up the
volume on your amplifier 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 20 dB).
6. After using the PC4 SE, if you are using speakers, turn the master volume
all the way down on your amplifier or mixer before powering off the PC4 SE.
Auditioning PC4 SE Sounds

**SW1 (SUSTAIN) and SW2 Jacks
**
Use the SW1 (SUSTAIN) and SW2 jacks to connect switch pedals. One switch pedal
is included with the PC4 SE.
In Program Mode, SW1 (SUSTAIN) defaults to controlling Sustain, and SW2
defaults to controlling Sostenuto. (For KB3 Organ Programs, SW1 (SUSTAIN)
defaults to controlling the Rotary Speaker speed, changing between fast and
slow. This assignment can be changed in Global Mode. The display shows “KB3”
when a KB3 Program is selected.)
In Multi Mode, pedal assignments can vary per Multi. Pedal assignments can be
adjusted for each Zone by using Multi Edit Mode.
Global Mode can be used to set pedal overrides, which can change the pedal
assignments for all Programs and Multis.
Note: Switch pedals must be plugged in before powering on the PC4 SE. Do not to step on the switch pedals when powering on the PC4 SE, as the state of the pedals is detected as part of the start up sequence.
**Dual Switch Pedals
**
The SW1 (SUSTAIN) and SW2 jacks can be connected to dual switch pedals (2
pedals per jack), allowing up to four switch pedals to be used. Compatible
pedals should use a single 1/4 inch tip-ring-sleeve plug. (Two single switch
pedals can also be plugged into one jack by using a 1/4 inch stereo (male) to
dual mono (female) splitter cable, aka TRS to dual TSF).
Pedals plugged into the SW1 (SUSTAIN) jack are referred to as SW1a and SW1b,
and pedals plugged into the SW2 jack are referred to as SW2a and SW2b. In
Program Mode the default assignments are:
SW1a | Sustain |
---|---|
SW1b | Sostenuto |
SW2a | Sostenuto |
SW2b | Soft Pedal |
To emulate the 3 pedals of an acoustic piano, plug a single switch pedal into the SW1 (SUSTAIN) jack, and a dual switch pedal into the SW2 jack.
Continuous Switch Pedals (Half-Damper)
The SW1 (SUSTAIN) jack is also compatible with continuous switch pedals
(Half-Damper) that use a 1/4 inch tip-ring-sleeve plug (such as the Kurzweil
KP-1H). When connected to the SW1 (SUSTAIN) jack, a Half Damper pedal enables
finer control of Sustain than a standard switch pedal. Half Damper control is
enabled for Programs in the Piano category. Programs outside of the Piano
category will respond to a Half Damper pedal as if it is a standard switch
pedal.
CC (VOLUME) Jack
Use the CC (VOLUME) jack to connect a MIDI CC pedal (also known as a MIDI
expression or volume pedal). By default this pedal is assigned to control
Program and Multi volume (pre-FX).
For KB3 Organ Programs, the CC (VOLUME) pedal controls organ swell. Organ
swell is similar to Program volume, except volume can not be turned all the
way down to silence. The display shows “KB3” when a KB3 Program is selected.
For User Multis, the CC pedal can be assigned to a different function for each
Zone by using Multi Edit Mode.
The optional Kurzweil CC-1 continuous control pedal will work best with the
PC4 SE, but it is also possible to use third-party continuous control pedals
designed for keyboards. Compatible pedals should use a 10 kΩ linear-taper
potentiometer, with a 1/4 inch tip-ring-sleeve (stereo) plug with the wiper
connected to the tip.
AUDIO OUT LEFT (MONO) and RIGHT Jacks
Use the AUDIO OUT jacks to connect to an amplifier or mixer. See Quick
Start on page 3 for details.
HEADPHONE Jack
Use the HEADPHONE jack located on the left rear panel of the instrument to
listen to the PC4 SE on stereo headphones. You will need a 1/8-inch-
to-1/4-inch adapter in order to use headphones that have a smaller mini plug
connector.
When headphones are plugged in, audio is still transmitted from the AUDIO OUT
jacks.
PC4 SE Sounds
The PC4 SE contains Programs and Multis. A Program is typically a single
instrument sound such as a Piano, Organ, or Synth. Programs are organized by
instrument type in 10 categories.
A Multi is a combination of Programs arranged as layers and/or splits across
