What microphone is good for ths keyboard (maily for vocals and accoustics) and what cable do you use? It looks like a TS 1/4". Can you use a TRS 1/4"? I was thinking about a Shure SM57 Microphone.
What about Headphones? I was thinking about the Sennheiser HD280 Pro.

Re: Microphone and Headphone Suggestions and Cable
Good choices. The SM57 is an "alrounder", good for voice and instruments. I personally prefer Beyerdynamic headphones, e.g. the DT-770 PRO.rderderian wrote:What microphone is good for ths keyboard (maily for vocals and accoustics) and what cable do you use?

As to the cables: read this article, or,
to make it short: connect the Mic to a Mic preamplifier (e.g. ART Tube) using a balanced XLR-XLR or XLR-TRS connection, and connect the Mic preamp and M3 using a short unbalanced TS-TS connection.

Re: Microphone and Headphone Suggestions and Cable
I think it will work because generally all headphones work with the Sennheiser HD280 Pro. I just don't think if the higher Ohm headphone will also work with it. I am going to try it at home.rderderian wrote:What microphone is good for ths keyboard (maily for vocals and accoustics) and what cable do you use? It looks like a TS 1/4". Can you use a TRS 1/4"?
