Re: Cabling and Equipment Advice

yeah downloaded the driver but with no actual software both Teams and Zoom still didn't recognise the piano as an input. I had a cheapo 3.5 - 3.5 cable in the office and have had it all working through OBS which is good. Sounds ok even with that, will certainly hope for better with stereo cabling. A...

Re: Cabling and Equipment Advice

ok, so piano is here and i've had a play. I think I need something other than the USB from RD88 to PC. I'm not using a mac, so can't use mainstage which would appear from that video to do the job. At the moment, even with the USB connected, OBS doesn't recognise the piano as an audio input - so my t...

stand or workstation?

Hi all, so, i've got my RD88 :bouncy: :bouncy: the stand it came with isn't for me, my legs are too big for an x frame so it needs to go. I've seen (as recommended on here) the offerings of K&M and I like the 18953 bench. I'm close to ordering it but wonder if I'm better off with a studio desk o...

Re: Cabling and Equipment Advice

Does sound like I need a cable from the speaker slot/headphone slot/line out of pc to go into the piano though, that sounds logical to me. If the piano allows it

Re: Cabling and Equipment Advice

Apparently the piano I’m going to get has a built in audio interface - Roland rd88 so might be ok

Re: Cabling and Equipment Advice

Ok, so. When I did this last time, I had speakers on my piano, and essentially I could do everything merely using my webcam. I added a mic to give clarity to the sound I wore headphones (connected to the pc) to hear my teacher and his piano - although the same could have been done with pc speakers. ...

Piano stand with Laptop shelf?

Hi, anyone able to recommend a stand for a Roland RD88 that has a laptop shelf - or ability to add one.

The piano is quite slim so i'm trying to avoid a massive stand (like the KS-g8)

I'm not a z frame fan really so trying to ensure legs have space underneath

Re: Cabling and Equipment Advice

.... I'd assumed the headphones would be going to the AI (or if indeed the RD88 can be the AI itself then the headphones to that as the mic would be in there anyway...ahhhhh....but then I can't hear the other person can I....point taken... yes of course :headbang: :headbang: The headphones should b...

Re: Cabling and Equipment Advice

I need to be able to hear myself play, and hear the teacher speak/play back.

That's what it comes down to really. As long as I can hear him and he can hear me yet the room itself is silent then perfect.

If that needs an AI so be it, if not that's fine too

Re: Cabling and Equipment Advice
