Then connect the interface to your laptop, computer, i. Pad, smartphone or i. Phone. Finally listen to the results using headphones or studio monitors. Simple Lets go through the step by step process of getting it right. Step 1 Check Where The Sound Is Coming FROMYour digital piano, electronic keyboard or synthesizer may have speakers. But to record you need to find the line level outputs. Check the manualinstruction booklet, or look online for the connectivity of your keyboard model. It may have something labelled Aux Out or Line Out. This information will appear in the Specs section. It might be labelled LLRR, or MAIN LMONO, R 14 TRS Balanced. Or, as is often the case with less expensive keyboards, it may be that the only output is actually a headphone output. That is OK. You can record from the headphone out if there is nothing else available. Step 2 Will You Record On Computer, Laptop, i. Phone or i. Pad Or All The AboveIn step 3, you will choose the right audio interface for the job of recording your keyboard. The audio interface is simply the box you need to take the sound from your keyboard, convert it to a digital signal, and transmit it to your computer. If you want, read more on what is an audio interface. But there is NO POINT buying an audio interface for a Laptop if you only want to record on an i. Pad. So think carefully where you want to make the recordings. Bluenext Headset Manual. Or for most flexibility, choose an interface that will work with more than one device. Step 3 Choose A Suitable Audio Interface To Record The Signal. You will need some kind of audio interface to make a decent quality recording of your piano or keyboard. There are literally hundreds available, at all different prices. So here is the critical things your interface must have 2 x line level inputs. Without line level inputs you will not be able to make a good recording of your keyboard. While you are choosing, think what else you might want to do with the interface. Record vocals Make sure your interface has at least one mic input this will be an XLR input with mic pre amp. Record guitar To record acoustic you can use a mic. To record direct, make sure the interface has a Hi Z input suitable for directly connecting the guitar it will often have a picture of a guitar next to it. Step 4 Get Connected With The Right Cables. If I could count the number of messages I get asking me which cable to buy. The answer is it depends. So do your homework. Look at the OUTPUTs of your keyboard and the INPUTs of your interface. The correct cable is simply the one or more that will join the two things together If you have L and R 14 outputs and L and R 14 inputs, then you need 2 x 14 mono TS cables. Or if the outputs and the inputs are both BALANCED the manual will state this then you need 2 x 14 mono TRS cables. If you are connecting your headphone out or your aux out is a single stereo port, then you will need a splitter cable of the right size. This will take the stereo output of the keyboard and split it into two mono channels left and right on your interface. Step 5 Recording Software. Do not get too hung up about the recording software at this stage. Make sure you get the hardware right first see steps 1 4. Chances are, the audio interface will ship with some recording software that you can use to record. OR there are plenty of free or inexpensive apps. On a Mac or Windows Laptop or computer, you can use Audacity. This is free and excellent. And easy to use. Or on a Mac you can use Garageband. There are plenty of free or inexpensive recording apps for i. Pads and i. Phones. Brocade Visio Shapes. Garageband is great for Apple products. Step 6 Listen To The Results. When you record through an audio interface you will usually listen to your recordings back through the interface. So you will almost certainly plug your studio headphones or monitors into the headphone or audio outputs of the interface. The exception would be if you have a recording interface that does not have outputs. If you want to record the actual sound of your keyboard on your computer then you need to connect the line out or headphone out if no line out from your keyboard up to your pc, mac or ipad.
