....Which begs a (probably basic) question..... Is it only MIDI sounds that transfer to the keyboard thru the MIDI connection? If so, I assume that the only way to play along with Realtracks, and use headphones to hear both the Realtracks and my playing on the keyboard, would be to use a mixer?

Thanks.




A mixer can be handy, but in this case is not needed. The proper adaptor cable from the Phones/Output jack that terminates at the other end with the proper connection to fit your computer's sound device stereo Line Input jack can be used to have both any output from the piano and any output from Band in a Box, such as Realtracks and Realdrums, all come out via the computer's speaker or headphone system. If using a Laptop, may be problematic as many laptops leave out the needed Line Input, though. Investing in an aftermarket Sound Device for recording music can solve that problem nicely, picking the right one to suit your needs can also yield the mixer and microphone preamp inputs right there on the aftermarket USB sound device's panel as well.
