I'm a guitar player learning to play keys looking for a keyboard allowing me to record songs/prhases, save it and play them back. Can this do that?

I think so, though it requires a usb. I haven't messed around with it much, though, so it's hard to say how powerful/useful it is. It also comes with some audio program that you can install and hook to a computer, which I am sure can do that.

Yes it has a performance section where you can record specific parts and instruments,record,playback,etc.With Flash Drives you can add more to it.

I don't believe so. I'm not a sound engineer, but it sounds like it was just recorded in a completely different pitch. It is incredibly simple to import and save a song. I use it to get the chords and notes out of a song in a key that I prefer to sing in.

Yes, this requires a computer as this is basically a controller for recording software which is why it is called a "MIDI Keyboard Controller"

I have this and I use it to record songs onto my computer. This is the physical interface that allows you to plug in mics and/or guitars etc. You also need some type of recording software such as Pro-Tools for example. Sometimes these interfaces come with a sample version of recording software which usually are pretty good quality and more than enough to record lyrics. I'm not sure if you can record with just the device and a mic. I think you would need some sort of software. their could be some free downloads on the internet. I hope this helped.

Hi,Its indeed useful and the features aare pretty handy. With minumal use of keys, you can navigate to the required menu.Quality of recording is good for band concerts and home recording.

I can record my guitar on tracks 1 or 2 via a 1/4 inch input jack. I you have the same type input jack (as used to connect a guitar to an amplifier), it should work with no problem.

You can record to a flash drive, the unit has the availability to do that. BUT just to let you know further testing of the 255 led me to return this unit. Once you go into" play file mode or demo instument mode you can't get out of it, you have to power off the unit and reboot. Secondly this unit is not GM, any midi files you put on a flash drive and try to pay back on the 255 comes out distorted - didn't work for me, I use midi files as backing trax. Have decided to buy the korg Havian 30, check it out you'll be awe struck, and the weight is 33 lbs

No you cant do that i tired and i couldnt figure out how to hook it up to a keyboard this is just for guitars or mics

Nope. In addition to all the solder-based solutions, you could probably make it respond to the sustain from another device by SW routing. Or if you want to be extreme, set up your iPad as a pedal and route the midi from that through your DAW :-).In all seriousness, this really isn't a big-keyboard replacement. More of an item that you would have at your computer workstation so that you can reach your computer keyboard while also having some keys to input notes (i.e. composition rather than performance). Also you might think about the 61-key version (also no sustain).

Yes, but it's not really a very good interface for multitracking. It's basically EXPLICITLY for guitar. If you want to multitrack drums or something you CANNOT do that with this. There isn't enough analog I/O (unless you have a mixer with enough channels and at least 2 buses to send those channels out to Pro Tools. But if you have a drum sampler or virtual instrument, yep. Works just fine. It's a full fledged interface.

No, I have a Stratocaster electric guitar and all I have to do is plug the cable from the guitar to the USB port on the computer. You need a program (such as Audacity, (a free program) or some other recording program,to record with) ,then select the correct input port on the computer to be able to see the input signal, and that's it.

I see a lot of discussion about guitar. Would this machine work to record piano and cello for competition CDs?
1382335
You can. I have a four channel mixer that I run my guitar to ( it's an Lexicon Lambda) it works great when I'm recording piano or guitar. I use a pair of Audio Technica headphones to listen to my mix plugged into my Lexicon. When I don't use my Lexicon I just run straight through my speakers when I'm mixing virtual instruments.

This keyboard is really small. It is really more for just playing around with versus trying to actually learn to play. You can play some songs on it though.

I am sure it would work fine for that if you were able to get a software that was able to pick up the guitar and give it a driver that would make it record-able.

yes you can use the effects that come in the keyboard, they have five videos posted on korgs website and one of them covers the process of recording your voice,adding it to a son g, adjusting levels and effects.

Yes it will record guitar to a computer but it can't drive loud speakers except active ones but can drive headphones.
