I don't know any synths that have properly balanced outputs. Balanced as in, the _type_ of input/output. Not, if they are actually balanced as you would balance a scale. A balanced input/output needs a different type of cable than an unbalanced. most consumer hardware uses unbalanced audio outs. most professional uses balanced. : The best way to connect a synth to a computer is to plug the stereo outputs into a line level input. Don't expect the world from cheap soundcards. well, my keyboard has 3 different types of outputs. 1st one is for headphones, 2nd one is a pair of Balanced outputs, 3rd is a pair of Unbalanced outs. : You could also DI them (meaning, plugging them through a DI (direct injection) box) or even plug it into a keyboard amp or PA and then mic them up.. I want to connect it straight to my pc because at this time I cannot afford any more equipment.. plus mixing/editing is a lot easier on a pc. Follow Ups: Re: simple setup but not?
