I am not sure how to do this because the last time i hooked my keyboard up to my mixer i think i blew out a speaker in the keyboard because now when i play the keyboard it sounds distorted. So i was wondering how i should hook up the keyboard into my computer?? And do u think hooking it up in the mixer messed up the speaker on the keyboard? because my friend hooked it up like that.

May 08, 2007 01:33 pm Can't say for sure on how your speaker got mangled as I am not familiar with what the keyboard is, and how the connection was made.
Does your software/soundcard take midi? I'd suggest hooking up via midi, and using VSTIs. There are a million free/shareware instruments out there. It will give you so much flexibility.
