Overlap recordings on px-s3000?

[Ammon]

What’s the easiest/best way to make a recording and then make a recording overlapping it and have it eventually end up on a computer/flashdrive?

If you want audio from the keyboard, I would probably record directly to a computer with some recording software.

Like what? Should I maybe invest in some hardware too? I'm very new to all this digital stuff

You could try Reaper - a very good and comprehensive DAW. You will, of course, also need a decent sound card to convert the analogic signal coming out from the line out jack outputs into digital signal.

I hope you find this video very helpful regarding your question.

Nice video.  I will point out that the presenter says computers "used to" have a line input, which allows one to directly connect the keyboard to the computer for recording instead of having to use an interface.  I admit I hang on to my computers longer than most, but I don't think I'm the only one who still has a line input -- in my case, an older MacBook Pro laptop, which has a stereo mini jack that can function as either an audio output or an audio input.  (I understand that more recent versions may have a four-conductor jack to allow simultaneous output and input, which might complicate things.)  So it's possible that Ammon might not need to get an interface.  As for sound cards, don't computers typically come with analog to digital conversion built in?
