box (pictured here) that you press down on the small tab next to the cable. You can see this small tab at the bottom of the port marked left 4. Look at the other ports and you can see there is a small tab next to every one. This will release the plug and allow you to remove it without damaging the cable.

The base guitar has its own large amplifier box. It needs power and a right angle 1/4 inch gold tipped cable from the INST #2 port on the back of the amplifier to the output port next to the short blue input cable of the Direct Box. The other output of the Direct Box uses a microphone cable and goes into port #2 in the back box behind the singers. No microphone but a chair and a music stand are needed.

The keyboard has its own small amplifier. A 1/4 inch tipped cable comes out of the "preamp out" port on the front of the amplifier and goes into the small silver colored Direct Box’s "Channel 1 In" port. A microphone cable comes out of the Direct Box’s "Channel 1 out" port and goes into #4 port in the back box. It has a monitor and the 1/4 inch tipped output of the monitor converts to a microphone plug and goes into the #2 port in the monitor box.
The drums have a 1/4 inch "L-output" port on the back of their control box. A 1/4 inch tipped cable goes from that port and then into the "Direct Box" input port. A microphone cable comes out of the "Direct Box" and into port #3 in the back box.
