chrs1961815 Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 I am trying to record some piano for tracks I am doing. When I record a take with headphones on or through the speakers, it sounds great. But when I go to load the MIDI file into my software program, it sounds completely different. It sounds much for synthy with organ coming from the pedal. The mixer says the grand piano studio is the only thing on so I do not get it. Please Help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad Saucier Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 Welcome to the forums! It sounds like you have used the MIDI recorder on the PX-560. MIDI does not contain audio. MIDI is like digital sheet music, which instructs an instrument how to play a song. When a MIDI file is played on another instrument, or computer, you'll hear the sound of the other instrument. In the case of a computer, the instrument is virtual, as a software instrument. What you can do on the PX-560 is record your MIDI recording as audio. That's easy with the PX-560. Connect a USB flash drive to the PX-560 and start the audio recorder. Once the audio recorder is ready, start playback of the MIDI recorder. When done, the USB drive will contain an audio WAV file which can be played on your computer. Hope this helps. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IanB Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 Also, if your software program is a DAW ("digital audio workstation") that acts like a multitrack recorder, you can record the audio from your keyboard's Line Out (Left and Right) into the DAW. That is how professional recordings in studios are done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrs1961815 Posted May 19, 2020 Author Share Posted May 19, 2020 Ok THANKS! I get the recording with the audio recorder but I am still confused about how to get the file to the flashdrive? I played the file back but it didn't copy onto the flashdrive if that is what is supposed to happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad Saucier Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 If you've successfully recorded an audio file, the file will automatically be on the flash drive inside of the MUSICDAT folder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrs1961815 Posted May 19, 2020 Author Share Posted May 19, 2020 It worked! Thanks! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
