Has anyone used this w/ sound equipment / & or, synthesizer use? Thanks for ANY help!

I can not answer your question. We use it for electronic piano only - it's like any piano bench, but shorter.

This is the one I sent back... it was badly made and didn't stand evenly. I got this one and love it. On Stage KT7800 Plus Padded Keyboard Bench

Can't be positive about this as I don't use vocoder, but there is no "audio mic" input that other synths have for this capability. Best uses this MX49 has - easy portability with the Motif patches (essentially the pianos), and USB connectivity with flash drives. I was able to load performances that I had stored from my "ancient" Roland Fantom X6 onto flash - into the MX's USB - list appears immediately and you can scroll through it.

I need more detail on your problem. Are you running it with any software such as Cubase? If yes, check that your MIDI channels match. If not check sound output settings in PCs control panel.

I don't use it for that personally but the friend who recommended it uses it for that purpose himself. I think he uses an external amp though.

Added thought... I want to use Audacity software to help with the conversion. Again, any thoughts? Thanks!

I have used it often for music, and also for field recording of ambient sound. It's been very good for everything! No limitations that I have found... I highly recommend this equipment!!

I forgot to mention, it also has a manual mode where just using the buttons on it you can choose frequency so I like to turn mine to Shuman... and there's a computer interface so you can reprogram it work with the synthesizer and write all custom programs to match audio that you have exactly... you can back these up and save your work. mine has an RS-232 but the new ones are all USB I think

Unfortunately I don't have much information to help because I'm considering the purchase of the same system. Has your impression changed much from the original post? I enjoy classical music but don't know much about different audio outputs and quality differentiators. Is there a better system at a similar price that you know of? Thanks for any additional thoughts.

I've never used either of the system's you've mentioned, but I run my RC-300 at the end of a LOT of input; POD HD 500, Elec. Keys, Elec. Drumkit, a handful of various analog and digital stomps (Boss and Behringer primarily-Reverse and Delay), and a Digitech Loopman. All of this is simultaneous, and I can't say I've lost any tone whatsoever, and believe me, there's some crazy amounts of variety in frequency as well as modulation that go together at once. You honestly have no worries with this piece of equipment. However, you WILL LOSE TONE without proper amplification and cables. You'll need to consider spending a pretty penny on some quality powered speakers and sturdy cables if you want to preserve your tone. I've been running a standard Fender FM100 Stack for a while and it cuts all of the bass from the kit, keys, and effects, as well as adds too much treble to the snare and higher registers. If you ever multi-link instruments with a y-cable, get a good one. I have a cheapo one right now and both the keys and the guitar/POD system have their decibel values decreased severely. Soooo... In short, you should marry this loop system.

Yes, I use both ableton studio and the Cubase LE.. this is a very good quality MIC no white noise. I do find that aftetr time using the direct monitor with the headset that it seems to start to drop VOL. but i tested it with a sound meter and it in fact does not drop it is that your ears get use to the Vol you set and if your like me and love it a little bot louader then you might need to get a Headphone Amp to run through...vordakoz@hotmail.com

I personally use it with traktor and it runs perfectly, but i believe it is not an analog mixer, as in the fact that it must run through the computer because it is a MIDI controller. Something unique about it though is that you can hook up analogue devices, such as turntables and they work efficiently with the mixer, but through the software.

I don't have it anymore, but it was a pretty neat unit and you don't need anything but MIDI cables to the computer or a dedicated sound card to capture the headphone output. Because of its inclusion of MIDI in and out, you can use it with other gear, which is nice. However, it has no USB output, which is becoming ever-common on newer gear.

To be honest I use the keyboard as part of my band. I have never use it for what you are inquiring about. Cannot give any advice.

That's all I've use it with. And no, the sound quality is fantastic. I was frustrated for years with cheaper products. I went ahead and spent the money on this, and it was well worth it!

You can use a midi controller as long as 1.its powered, 2 you intend to only input midi notes and use the pitch and mod wheels. as for going from one patch to another, its all got to be entered by hand because its analog. But thats part of what makes the sound so great. Limitations with the gear ya use open up creative doors.

What does audio input mixing unit do in this case? Is it for resolving the time lag?Would something cheaper like this Behringer MX400 4-Channel Mixer do the trick too?Thank you!

Anyone try running the output through the Fx Loop Send, increasing gain and lowering the Volume(so the speaker isn't heard)?But if this works you'll loose the Power tube phase. I'm using Blackstar Ht Metal's Emulated Output for this purpose.
