If Your Keyboard Doesn’t Have a MIDI Thru Jack
If your keyboard has only two MIDI jacks—In and Out—or if you have only one keyboard, use the
following diagrams instead:
Each MIDI device should be set to a unique MIDI channel or range of channels to avoid note-
doubling. Refer to the manuals for your MIDI devices for information on how to set their MIDI
channels.
If your master keyboard now seems to double notes (they sound thicker), or if you can play only one
half as many at once, first make sure that no MIDI channel is being used by more than one of your
MIDI devices. If no MIDI channel is assigned to duplicate devices and you hear doubling or only half
as many notes as you should, see “My Keyboard Doubles Every Note I Play” on page 910.
Set Up to Record Digital Audio
In general, the inputs of sound cards take 1/8 inch stereo mini-jacks. Sound cards usually have two
inputs—one for line level inputs and the other for microphones (at mic level). The line level input is
stereo; the mic input could be either stereo or mono. If your final output does not terminate in a 1/8
inch jack (and it probably doesn’t), you will need an adapter to plug it into your sound card.
