Can you plug it into a computer to record? If so, can you change the instrument sound using a program like Garageband? Thanks.

My owners manual describes a system for connecting to an Amplifier or hi-fi equipment however if I were buying a keyboard to connect to a computer I would think about a better item than this instrument. The sound quality is not the greatest.

This item is a piece of junk and you'll be lucky to get it to work let alone do any of the things that you're asking

Honestly I don't remember it coming with any recording software. I've used this as nothing more than a Midi Keyboard with Reason. If you want recording software, you should look into something more professional and something that's suited for that kind of work. Reason, Ableton, FL Studio ect...

I would be grateful if you could post how you did this a mic on your computer. I have now tried a couple of ways and as the other poster had said, it did not work. I plugged it into the mic jack on my laptop. I then tried recording with 1) Sound recorder (under Microsoft Accesories) and with 2) Audicity. For Auditicy, I verified it could record fine w/o the mic and made sure I had the source input for auditcity be a microphone. so it appears the other poster is correct - but if you know some trick, please post so the rest of us can use it! (or if you realize you were mistaken, it would help us to know that too.) Thanks much. I would be grateful if you could post how you did this a mic on your computer.

We purchased a Mac and use Garage Band to do our recordings. You can get a refurbished Mac for just a few hundred dollars and the Garage Band software will probably already be installed on it.

Apparently it only has a headphone jack. Technically this can be connected to the line input on a computer, where you then play back the recordings at normal speed and record them on your computer. This would be tedious to do regularly.

Not directly. It is a midi only device and makes no sounds on its own. You must use a midi cable to plug it into a sound module or midi interface on a computer. After that then you could take the output of the sound module or interface and plug that into an amp.

I don't think you've given enough information. What software do you want to use this with (e.g., Garage Band)? What kind of computer? If you're expecting sound to come out of the keyboard, it won't, it will come out of the computer.

You can plug it into another system through the headphone jack. I had mine sey up on my PC so I could make digital recordings of my tapes. You need a special sound card that takes such inputs, but it worked fine for me. Recordings could then be modified through audio editing software to make them sound good. :-) Hope this helps.

i dont use the software but i dont think the accompanying software is a recording program. it might be. i use the 2i4 with garageband which will do multitrack recording and then mix down to a stereo track.

You can certainly plug in mini speakers - though how decent the sound is depends on the quality of the speakers you use. I use it as a preamp for recording in Garage Band and it sounds great. I also use it as an overdrive/preamp with my practice amp. That has a 10 inch speaker and sounds fantastic. Through mini speakers you will certainly get a good sound - but as mentioned it depends on how good they are to begin with.

Hello,If your computer has "MICROPHONE INPUT" and recording software MAYBE okay to use. However just want to remind you that the sound produce maybe very low and sometimes unable to hear. Hope this helpThank you

I haven't actually tried this but you should be able to run a line from the headphone input to a computer and record it onto a multitracking program (like Audacity) and go from there.

You can import and export sounds or loops into it by connecting it to a computer. .flac files, i have not connected mine to see what the files are saved as.

You can definitely use it for direct recording. I've used it on a couple of finished tracks with a couple of different instruments. You'll likely have some latency issues and will have to mess around with the settings, but every DAW I've tried it with has recognized it as an input source.

Honestly the suck. I hooked it up to my sound system it lasted about a month before my records didnt sound right. Your better off getting a older used one. If you wanna record on your computer get audacity or soundwave and a rca to 3.5mm cord and plug in the the mic port.

This is an electro-acoustic instrument so, yes it can be recorded via an audio input. It plays amazingly as both acoustic and as an amplified instrument.

You can record the amp using a microphone and some sort of recording equipment. There is a line out jack on the back that you can plug it directly into your recorder. Also there appears to be a way to record using the USB jack on the back as well. This can plug into your computer for recording with software.
