Korg Forums

The R3 is a performance instrument and sound design tool (a Synthesizer), like a guitar or bass coupled with a bunch of pedals or effects processors. as are most other instruments in this class - the Radias, MicroKorg, MS2000, even the Z1, the Nord Wave & Electro, etc. you can make some great ...

Great, so I guess I can't do what I want to do just with the R3 alone. That's lovely. Ah well.....I guess it'll serve as just a neat little piano in the meantime

UGH geez, why couldn't the R3 come with a built in recording/playback feature??? You would think that would be standard on an instrument like this!

and which sequencer/looper do you think I would need?

Does the R3 have a function where you can record a certain sequence of notes and then play them back while you're playing the main song?? For example, I want to interpose a particular melody and/or chord on top of a melody I'm already physically playing. My 2 hands aren't enough to play all of this ...

EXCELLENT! We have sound!! Thanks a lot XML...if you were a woman, I'd take you out for dinner and make love to you!

OK latest update: all the electronics stores around me don't have that cable for diagram 2C. This is insane, so I'm going to order it online. It's really unbelievable, and I'm now convinced that I'm shopping for clothes, electronics, furniture, etc (basically everything except food) online. Dealing ...

Ahh ok, I think I'm going to definitely go with Diagram 2C and hook that cable into the Auxiliary Input. It seems the easier way to go, and I can't seem to find that cable you mentioned for 2B anywhere. I was browsing online, and when I put in the name of that particular cable, so many came up and I ...

By the way, I intend on going with the diagram 2B route. However, if I do that, I think I'm still going to need something else. So we have the Logitech 3-pronged connector thing (which I'll have to see if I have it...if not, I'll order it) and that patch cable. Here's the thing: don't I need that Y ...

Ok XML, I will try this and I'll let you know whether I've done it or not! Keep your eyes on this forum posting in the meantime. Thanks again

I'm also moving to Los Angeles next year for graduate school, so maybe I should just let this collect dust until then. Then while I'm there, make friends with someone who knows about computer audio connections and all that garbage. It's the only other plan I have with this machine at this point. The ...

Ok, I went to Guitar Center and told the guy my situation. I then bought 2 cables: a Y-cable mono rca (m) to 2 mono rca (f) and a dual 1/4" phone (m) to RCA. My speaker LCD hub has a coaxial slot, so I put the Y-cable end into that. Now the other 2 ends of the Y-cable were plugged into the 1/4 ...

Thanks for your help XML, but I don't think I'm going to buy all of those connections for my computer. It's not worth it, so I'm scratching the idea of getting sound through my computer. Not gonna happen. What are my other options? A ridiculously expensive amp? Or wait, I have an idea. I have a ...

Ok, I'm a beginner at this, so please bear with me as I explain all the details step by step. I'm running a Windows Vista system. I installed all the necessary drivers for the R3 and they're recognized. Sound Editor is also installed. The only connections I have are as follows: the power adapter ...
