Connecting a microKORG

Post by xtal z1 »

Can I connect a microKORG via line outputs to the microSAMPLER and get the sounds/riffs played? (just like it's done with the kaossilator http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M5k8YP-0at0) What kind of cable do I need? Stereo jack?

Hello there.

Yes, input is via stereo 1/4" jacks.

Engage loop button while holding down global key to monitor the incoming signal. There is a gain control to adjust input level.

Thank you very much for your help! Can you do me one last favor and recommend me a nice cable? I really don't know what to look for.

I don't know what inputs you get on the MS buy typically you'll want to use a pair of mono cables - like what a guitarist uses, but generally you can get away with cheaper ones in studio use and for synths - rather than a single stereo lead.

You get a higher quality output from the main L/mono and R jacks than through the headphones stereo socket which you should only really use for headphones.
