Common Customer Questions Answered
What is the function of the USB Type-A port marked for WC-1?
The USB Type-A port allows you to plug in a standard flash drive for data storage, but it also directly supports the **Roland Wireless Adapter (WC-1)**. When plugged in, this optional adapter establishes a premium wireless connection to Roland Cloud Connect via your smartphone, enabling you to browse, audition, and wirelessly install thousands of extra ZEN-Core tones and backing styles straight into your GO:KEYS 3.
Can I safely connect this keyboard to an external PA system for live stage gigs?
Yes, you can. The headphone output on the GO:KEYS 3 doubles as a stereo line output. By using a standard 3.5 mm TRS to dual 1/4-inch TS splitter cable, you can easily route the full-fidelity stereo sound of the keyboard straight into a live venue mixing board, stage monitor speaker, or studio audio interface.
Can this keyboard run completely on standard battery power?
Absolutely. The GO:KEYS 3 is optimized for complete mobile performance. By inserting eight standard AA alkaline or rechargeable Ni-MH batteries into the bottom storage compartment, you can enjoy hours of continuous music production at home, in classrooms, or during outdoor pop-up sessions across the Emirates without ever needing to search for an electrical power outlet.
